Ok, calm down people ;)

SCEE announce that they have run out of yarozes (and lets face it, it had to
happen sooner or later) and some people start freaking out!
Although its unfortunate that the yarozes are now out of stock (everyone
here should have one anyway!) it's great news to hear that everything else
will continue as normal. In fact as far as I'm concerned everything is the
same as it was before the announcement.
As for returning the development kit back once the licence agreement expires
I very much doubt SCEE will ask for them back or make people destroy them.
Why would they? They would have nothing to gain and a lot to lose if they
took such action. That clause is there for people who breach their contract.

Lastly, I'd like to congratulate SCEE for doing a great job on their
announcement making it perfectly clear what was happening and why.
Obviously from the response it seems some people haven't bothered to read
it: http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/yaroze/news/nyfaq2.htm

Just to summarise:

- "the website will continue to be available"
- "as originally promised there are no plans for any additional future fees"
- "the newsgroups will continue to be available"
- "support will continue to be available"
- "The [Fame Game] competition will continue"

They think it's all over.....it ain't yet!
