I ordered a copy of Dreamkey version 3.0 on Sunday and I was wondering if anyone who owns dreamkey 3.0 could answer the following questions...

1.) When you ordered your copy of DK 3.0 how long did it take for YOU to recieve it in the post?

2.) When I recive DK 3.0 do i need to unregister 1.5 or do I just put the DK 3.0 disc straight into my DC and then it automatically updates or overwrites the existing information or something like that?

3.) I am currently with BT internet anytime and i pay £14.99 a month and then get it Free all the time, i'm assuming that i can use my existing BT internet anytime number with the disc as that would seem to be the main feature and purpose of Dreamkey 3.0?

i would appreciate it if someone could answer my questions, cheers.

Yep, tis' very true. And for once, I'm jealous that the UK has been treated better than the US in this scenario.

Since I own the US PSOver2 and refused to pay-to-play, so it looks like I'm going to end up buying the PAL version tonight then me thinks.

PSOver2 joins the list of doubles that I own now ;)

Capcom vs SNK 2 PS2/DC
Guilty Gear X PS2/DC
Shenmue 2 JPN/UK
PSOver2 US/UK

Gotta stop those impulse buys...;)

I have just found out THE greatest news. I was online about 30mins ago with my m8 on PSO. He is from the UK, and he has now got his copy of PSO2(he got it from a small retailers. Better yet, he said it is completely free, there is nothing online to suggest otherwise, and he even looked in the manual and couldn't find anything. so WOOHOO to us UK guys and gals, I never thought I'd see the day when the UK actually gets a better deal than the rest of the world...

Actually you can use any previous version of Dreamkey e.g 1.0 or 1.5, but if you don't register your DC with a previous version by the end of TODAY then you might never be able to get it online, my advice is buy a copy of chu chu rocket as it comes with DK 1.5 and register today, if you wan't to get online with DK 3.0 at all...
