[slinkelist] website address for i-opener hack?

[William Hollingworth]

Try the following:

http://iopener.scizzors.net/
http://www.linux-hacker.net/iopener/

I ordered one directly from them yesterday. Cost me $99 + $39 S&H + tax 
(Texas). Should be here in 7-14 days. $39 for shipping is steep, but 
CircuitCity is out of stock nationwide.

They said that (theoretically) you don't have to sign up for the service at 
all, but at the end of ordering I was  told that my subscription would 
begin within 2 days of receipt, or when I connect it to a phone line (I 
didn't argue the point). You can cancel this right away - especially as I 
didn't give them any authorization to bill me monthly and there are no 
service agreements to sign. One trick is apparently to say "its for a 
friend and I don't know when/where/how it will be activated. Either way, 
$21 for one month is no big deal.

I'm still amazed there is a company out there so stupid to leave so many 
gaping holes in their system.
