As a side note the taco stand from which I planned to get 3 fajita tacos from was closed…for lunch.
Well this was a waste of Money...it requires Microsoft servers to even pair with your phone and they were taken down in 2017 so it's a brick...some you win some you lose etc. -

It is supposed to offer 5 year support on all products, I believe this is a law. Did you contact MS or do they still make you pay for basic-bitch tech questions? -

It came out in 2013 or so, they offered owners a refund which expired in 2019. 80% of it's functionality was directly tied to the servers. They discontinued it in 2017 the servers went offline in 2019 rendering them useless. -

Oh, ok. I thought it was bought in 2017 which if it was the last year it needed to be honored for 5 years. LOL, dude got a refund with no return needed then sells it to that store for store credit?
Put temple OS on it -
