This is an edition of EON that I’m really looking forward to getting my hands on. It covers some really important areas, and as an industrialist I’m fascinated to see the indy corp profiles.
Another article I’m really interested in is one about the Eve API. Having just got my hands on an Android powered Samsung Galaxy S3, I’m already enjoying the excellent apps like Aura. Developments with the API coupled with the openness of Android can only lead to even better things.












What’s that New Mining Frigate suppose to be? Will there be a new BPO for this?
I haven’t seen details of the new mining frigate yet, but I can only imagine that there will be a BPO for it.
In other news, I would expect that Procurer BPO’s are trading fairly well at the moment.
Already own a Procurer BPO, decided to invest in one a few days ago got one for 479 M in Jita Market which I considered a good deal. Since I invent, build sold quite a few Skiffs I considered it a good investment to pick up the actual BPO.
Had also bought cheap and traded enough Procurers to make enough profit to have paid for the BPO cost. I intend to keep profiting.
I’m sure I’ll pickup the new Frigate BPO whenever it shows up.
They’re up to around 550 million each now on Jita market, so looks like a trip out to ORE territory might be needed as for some reason we don’t seem to have a Procurer BPO, which is a massive oversight for us really considering our extensive BPO library. I’ve always wanted to go to ORE territory, looks like I might now have my excuse to do so.
I think I was just lucky to be in Jita dumping a few Skiffs on the Market when I just happened to check the price of the Procurers and it wad at a deal. It helped that I had and idea of what the ORE price was also, do I considered the price not too bad a premium a good deal and just got it.
Now if your going out to Outer Ring and picking up stuff from ORE station, anyway you can you get me a Retriever BPO and contract it to me at a little premium profit for the trouble. They cost 900 M at ORE station.
OMW back from Outer Ring ORE territory now and will contract it to you in a convenient hi-sec system.
