i1iO and i1Pro3

Hey, I just found out that when upgrading to a brand new i1Pro3 I should also buy a brand new i1iO, though it's only a footplate that changed.
Is that even legal? I mean, damn, $3000+ for literally just a piece of plastic...
 
When Xrite went from the i1pro to the i1pro2, they did have an upgrade program
to upgrade the i1io v1 to the i1io v2 to match the i1pro2. Some people even
independently came up with 3d printable footplates for the i1io v1.

Not sure why xrite did not make a similar upgrade offer for the i1io v2
to make it an i1io v3.
 
aye, there was an upgrade program, true. But here in Russia they told us that we need to send our i1iO v1 to Switzerland to make this upgrade. And the total cost exceeded the price of the new one. So we've printed a footplate (that some guy made freely available for download) and it worked fine for some time. Eventually we've bought a new i1iO.
