Set up G2 - harryp - 07-02-2019 06:16 PM
I just got a G2 at Best Buy. Will it connect through my existing Prime Connectivity Kit or do I need to download something else?

A G2 Prime is compatible with the current ConnKit, so it should work the same as your older Prime.
Did you get the G2 at a BestBuy in USA? First I've heard they have it.
Update: My local BB has them in stock too!

I knew the product number of the G2 and for the past few months I've bounced between Amazon / Staples / Best Buy. I checked yesterday and Best Buy was showing it. They had the previous versions clearance for $119 and the new one for $149. I just had to check on the rack, they had the older ones in front of the G2, but I found the new ones and bought one. So, I guess they are seeping into the US now. They only had two in stock, I got one of them, after hurtling down the road at 115mph and crashing through the plate glass door at Best Buy.

Finally, you'll get some use out of the wireless dongles I sent your way!

The thought had occurred to me... and unless pesky clients get in the way, I'll have a wireless 4th of July. Hey, we all celebrate in different ways...
I don't expect to ever need warranty service on my Prime, but wanted to have a unit intended for the US market. Will report exact contents once in hand.
