There is a person on ebay who is selling sd cards with the Pleosaurus rex, halloween and so forth downloads for $15 EACH :o Can they be reported, that is illegal.
Item#270370397293 Pleo personality SD card for your Pleo.
No need to download files.
On a fully 4 HOUR charged battery simply insert the personality sd card
into your Pleo.
Insert the SD card into the SD card slot in Pleo's belly.
Turn Pleo on
The feature on the SD card will temporarily override Pleo's usual personality.
Have fun!
Remember your battery and charger must NOT be defective for the sd cards to operate correctly.
Below are the following personalities:
Halloween Pleo Sd card
It's Pleo's first Halloween...what will he wear for trick-or-treating? This baby dino just can't decide whether to be a shrieking cat, a spooky ghost, a dragon or a terrifying Pleosaurus Rex! So, he's trying them all out. Listen as Pleo tries on different audio "costumes!" You'll hear some regular old. Pleo sounds as well, because he's his same adorable self, only...spookier!
Pleosaurus Rex! Pleo Sd card
Pleosaurus shows his wild side and does his best impersonation of Godzilla! Send your dino on a rampage crushing everything in the way and blowing fire at obstacles. See if you can figure out how to trigger a dramatic death sequence
The Watchdog Game Pleo Sd card
Pleo's a playful baby dino. He counts to four while you get set - then the game is on! Will Watchdog Pleo see you before you tag his head or back, or can you sneak past him? Note: Watchdinos are notoriously smug winners.
Love-struck Pleo Pleo Sd card
Has Pleo been bitten by the love bug?
He sulks when left alone, but pet him ... he wiggles, coos, and sighs happily. Cuddle Pleo and his heart beats with joy as he purrs and nuzzles. Pet him just so; he'll profess his love and blow kisses. Whistling when he sees something he likes, this baby dino is quite a flirt!
Holiday Pleo Pleo Sd card
Jingle Dino Rock! Get ready to sing along with a very festive Pleo. See if you can figure out how petting him might make him change his tune...
In addition, I have a 1.1 Updater Personality Download Sd card also. YOU MUST UPDATE PLEO to 1.1 before you use any personality downloads.
Furthermore, I have a patch file on sd card that will revert Pleo back to an earlier stage. However, with the patch file you must immediately update Pleo to 1.1 to use your personality downloads.
Price: Each Sd Card $15 each free shipping in the United States.... Outside of the United States $10 shipping
Purchase: All seven sd cards for $30 + FREE SHIPPING(united States only) Outside of the United States $10 shipping

If selling SD cards, probably no problem. If Ugobe was the source of the software being peddled, maybe so. why don't you send that to Ugobe and see if there's any life in the old beast after all. :D
-
It isn't Ugobe, it is the same person who was selling the batteries and chargers, they can sell SD cards there's no problem with that but selling them with software (and not specifying that that software is freeware from Ugobe) is very wrong. They don't have any up at the moment but if I see more I will try Ugobe :P
-
Why I brought up Ugobe? I don't know how free that freeware is. There could be a for personal use only clause in there. That's why I mentioned sending it to Ugobe.
Edit: As of 6:30 am no one had bid on the item. I also noticed the seller is across the bay in Oakland. Just to be sure I notified Ugobe.
-
Oh did another come up?
Those downloads are for personal use, however even freeware has terms of use attached which specifies that it cannot be sold. If he had mentioned that they are available from Ugobe I think he might have been ok, but that page doesn't mention Ugobe anywhere.
I reported it to ebay as well, and gave them the Pleoworld web page they are on. Let them work it out :)

Heck ya know what, I don't think it's a bad idea at all. Like for example, myself. I don't speak a lick of technology. Never heard of a 'SD card' until I met Dallas! (Boy, what an adventure it's been since then!) To be quite honest, I don't even know how to put something on or take something off of an SD card. If it wasn't for Ugobe sending me a preloaded SD card with the 1.1 updater, my babies would have never been updated! So how much is a SD card, anyway? Is $15 a good deal for a SD card?
My two cents is, it's legal. He's only selling preloaded SD cards.
-
No its not simply because he has failed to mention that these downloads are someone elses and are available elsewhere. Had he mentioned that the programs belong to Ugobe and are available from their site it would have been acceptable.
-
yeah that is true. I was thinking that. i guess if he put it explicitly that they were free, than that would be fine. But he didn't. I'd buy one though..
-
I remember someone who posted Furby's Instruction Guide (pdf format) on italian ebay for sell :o and after that i posted the link on my virtual pet blog for FREE ;)
-
Someone just need to go to the item on eBay and post a comment with a link pointing to the downloads here! ;)
-
The item has been pulled from Ebay's auction site.
-
the idea is not a bad one. What he should have done is listed SD cards for sale, and with each SD card purchase, you could select which of the FREE UGOBE downloads you wanted preloaded on it.
That would be selling a legit product and offering a good service to help promote his sales . . . ;)
-
.....and from there, mweed you could direct them to here!!
-
Well, of course. That's the whole idea!
-
So GET ON HIM, GRUMPY!! Tell Mike it's a good idea!! :-D
-
So GET ON HIM, GRUMPY!! Tell Mike it's a good idea!! :-D
That's mweed to you! ;)
-
Well it's a good thing I was speaking to MIKE and not you.
-
Well, we're one big family here, and not to formal. You can call me "sir", "Grand Poobah", "Your Eminence", "O Wise One" or just simply "Bob's gofer". ;)
-
As you can tell Mike is rather unassuming.
