    Default Email from Escort re USB Port

    I had emailed Escort about the large amount of returns I am seeing on this board, and asked about the USB and software. Here is the answer:
    It is good to hear from you! We have not had an inordinate amount of returns with the 9500i. Currently the USB port is only used internally. In the future you will be able to download and save your marked locations, and download other customer's saved locations. In the far future, you will also be able to download software from us using the USB port. We have no time line on when these functions will be available, but our engineers are currently working on them. Thank you for your patience, and we will announce any new capabilities on our website.

    Thanks for your interest in Escort!

    I work as an IT consultant. When tell customers Phase I will have the following features, they will get them. When I tell them Phase II (far future), usually it never happens.

    I wouldn't hold my breath on firmware updates via USB before they release a new detector.

    Yep, same email I received from them a couple of weeks ago.

    One thing to note here, "In the far future" we will also likely have inter-planetary space travel too!

    Ya, like when the X50 came out and Escort said there would soon be a retrofit for the 8500. Wish I printed that one out.

    sure they won't tell you about the huge returns. but i bet they are around the 20% mark and that's high when it should be more like 5%.
