I was under the impression you could not sell the old cable, am I correct?
If so can I offer it in a package with my edit cable? Like edit for 350 and free efilive? If not I will keep the old cable I don't want to violate the agreement with efilive.

What a great place to ask such a question. ;)
I know I should just crush the edit cable but dam I did pay alot for it. Futhermore, there is a kid asking about my old cable and he don't have much money. However, I don't want to get in trouble with this company.
The way the upgrade from EFILive on AutoTap to EFILive on FlashScan works is like this:
When you purchased EFILive on AutoTap, you actually bought two products:
1. The AutoTap cable. (rrp $160)
2. The EFILive Scan Tool license. (rrp $338)
As a package they cost around $498
The upgrade to EFILive Personal Scan and Tune is calcualted by subtracting the Scan Tool License from the retail price:
i.e. $699-$338 = $361 (reduced to $349 to make the upgrade price half of retail)
When you upgrade to EFILive on FlashScan, you only traded your EFILive Scan Tool license, not the AutoTap interface. You can do whatever you like with your AutoTap cable - it is not part of the upgrade deal.
What that means is, your old EFILive Scan Tool license is no longer valid. It cannot be used for any future upgrades, support calls or other offers from EFILive. The new EFILive FlashScan license replaces the old one.
We make one exception, you may continue to use the EFILive Scan Tool license on your AutoTap cable as a spare scan tool.
If you sell (or even give away) the AutoTap cable to someone else, then you MUST NOT SELL the EFILive Scan Tool license that you used to upgrade to EFILive FlashScan.
Some customers have asked if they could lend their existing AutoTap cable and (now void) EFILive Scan Tool license to a friend or family member. We realise that will happen and so long as the person to whom you lend the (now void) license, is aware that it is not a supported product and cannot be used for any further upgrades and/or support calls then we accept that.
What we don't want to discover is some poor customer who has unknowingly purchased an EFILive Scan Tool and AutoTap cable from someone who has fraudulently sold them an already upgraded EFILive Scan Tool license.

Having said all that I forgot about the offer that we are going to make soon.
Hang on to your Edit and HPT cables (and maybe other cable types, we have not decided yet), they may be worth something as a trade in when you purchase EFILive.
Don't worry if you have already purchased or are about to purchase, the offer will be made retrospectively for all EFILive FlashScan customers - noone will miss out.
Regards
Paul
Now that is what i am talking about :-)
:o Thats great. Now when its available I can finally convert one of my buddies.

EFILive and Paul are very thorough and exacting, and will not provide you some half-baked taped-on feature that will just make you unhappy or be detrimental to you or your car.
Be patient and you shall see excellent 98 support.
EFILive and Paul work very hard and do a good job (and offer incomparable customer support for free...).
Paul knows that 98 support is urgent, so try not to make him feel too bad for one of GM's half-baked taped-on decisions.
I know it's a long time, but in our lives we often have to wait longer for the good things, and it is wise to not settle for anything less than good.
In the meantime, EFILive still rules the world... :D
