If you have a read about on different forums there seem to be a lot of clone smargo's last only about three weeks to a month, best to buy a real smargo and don't update it to 1.04 firmware becuse that is causing loads of trouble,as i have just had. I bought a real one and updated to 1.04 and i couldn't get it to work no matter what i did. I downloaded a programme that was meant to downgrade it to 1.03 but it doesn't get recognised on my pc so i have had to buy another new one now.
