Interesting, when did Tamo Soft start giving away CommView Wifi for less than $100 or even for free? I must have missed that ...

It's a little offtopic here. As a private user, you can use CommView WiFi for free, opposite to $100 stick that can nothing except capturing packets (i.e. it cannot operate in normal mode), has no socket for external antenna etc.

CommView, but not CommView Wifi. If you think CommView Wifi is free for personal use, please post the link were I can find that statement on the website of the vendor.

It's not on vendors site, but maybe on torrent trackers :)

I've got captcha prompt, so either edit the question by yourself or vote to give me neutral carma.

So, you compare a product for $100 with a stolen license key of a product that costs several hundred $ and then you complain, that the product you cannot steal via torrent (as it's physical) is too expensive?

Do you think that is funny?
