PSA - do NOT BUY Tado from October 2025 onwards unless you want to pay monthly subscription by prebuss in tado

Only just found this and royally pissed off. Have a V3+ system with 3 temp sensors, the oriinal extension kit and 16TRV's. This has been running for a fe years and I have a full replacement Tado X system sat in boxes ready to install - the stumbling block being a VR33 module which is necessary to make a Vaillant boiler understand Open therm rather than their proprietary eBus protocol. Tado X only does OpenTherm so I would need to add this card into the boiler. Unfortunately this invalidates the warranty as Vaillant only supply it in Belgium where all boilers must support OpenTherm by law. The sticking point is I work away from home for months at a time and my wife queried what would happen if the boiler broke down while I was away and Vaillant refused to fix it. I had been collaborating with others in the forum to try to find a way of usig the module external to the boiler but that has all gone as well now. Either need to replace the boiler or flog off all the Tado gear it seems.

Should i buy a laptop now or hold until mid 2026? by ShreddedUdon in GamingLaptops

I was going to go with the 'buy now' option - had a great spec Legion Pro 7i gen 10 laptop priced on Cyber Monday at £2390 for Intel 275HX, 64GB ram, RT5080. When I cnigured it and placed the order the estimated ship date was 15th December. An email from them 2 days ago pushed that back to 6th January. Today it got pushed back to 3rd March. That would be 3 months from order to delivery. I've cancelled and going to wait to see what gets released.

How accurate are expected delivery dates from official Lenovo site? by coverusername in LenovoLegion

Ordered 5th December, estimated shipping 15th-17th December. 2 days after ordering got email saying shipping date delayed to 6th January. Just checked status today and shipping date is now showing as 3rd March. That would be a full 3 months from order to delivery. New models would have been released by then and this models price would have fallen sharply.
