Now if it becomes true that all SP's out will not work with other modchips solderlessly and all people require new one or add on board, I think we should hit Xodus the same way they hit clone sellers. Return SP's demand money back and STOP credit Card payments, expect nothing more then the product you ordered and payed for! Unless they are willing to ship proper parts to all owners free of charge. Only time will tell. Also note it is now appearing as SP - ICE adapter( Ice as in there own chip and only work on ther chip ) on sites today rather then SP adapter a few days ago.
They are now stating design to be changed at manufacturer for other chips which equals redesign of PCB and adding of pogo pins for other modchips, which means the adapter you have now will not work with other modchips as is solderlessly, and will require soldering to us as is.
As for everyone with pre-1.6's it was clearly stated only to use the black plastic mold as if normal solderless adapter.
For poeple using a 5V modchip, remove pogo pin #6 and solder 5V direct from motherboard, one wire is better then 5.
