Maybe  RIT  told those dealers that this product will be replaced with
SB! soon so they've stopped selling it. Aladdin can be not informed or
can  have  different  agreement  with RIT as a hardware vendor for the
product. We can only be guessing now.

I  don't  know  how  it  looks  now,  but  you're  right  that  German
distributor  was  sending  out  SB! bundles. Maybe ever worldwide. Can
someone with SB! living outside Europe can confirm that?

There  are security-related companies which are selling both iKeys and
eTokens  but  I'm  not aware of any software distributor here which is
selling  SB!  without  a  special  request,  like on the regular offer
basis,  especially  with eToken Pro because TB! Pro was never released
outside  Ukraine  and/or  Russia.  Same  goes  to  SecureBat!  version
supporting this particular token.

There  are  plans  to  release  SB!  v2  within  a  month from now on.
Personally  I think that this release will be available worldwide with
eToken Pro included.

However,  you  can  still  buy  SB!  v1  (iKey1000)  on CIFNET's site:
https://www.cifnet.com/cgi-bin/ritlabs/securebat.html - price is 140$.

You can also try sending email query to Shareware Registration Service
for East Europe (http://www.shareware.ee).

I  think that there is no and won't be such upgrade possibility, which
is for me quite understandable.
