WD TV Live Plus END OF LIFE?

[angelwolf71885]

i think the WD TV Live Plus has been EOL
when you visit the product page you only see the Live HUB and NEW Live listed http://wdc.com/en/products/homeentertainment/mediaplayers/
and since before Christmas the Live Plus has been out of stock from Western Digitals store even refurbished models are out of stock
http://store.westerndigital.com/store/wdus/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/categoryID.43496300/parid.13092400/catid.13742300 WD TV Live Plus out of stock

http://store.westerndigital.com/store/wdus/en_US/DisplayAccesoryProductDetailsPage/productID.223009400/categoryId.13096400 WD TV Live Plus refurbished out of stock

luckily you can still find them on amazon and ebay

i think i red in the 5.1.1 thread that b-rad said that the new live is locked down worse then the hub anyone know if the new Live is vulnerable?
as it supports netflix

Yep, I knew I was up sh*t creek when 1 out of the 2 that I ordered from Centrix International went bad about 2 weeks after ordering and when I called them they said to take it up with WD since they (Centrix) are completely out of stock (both recert and new).

Now I've gotta RMA the unit w/WD - those bastages.
