Oh I see, my knowledge is out of date. This is the way I thought it still worked with security measures to jump through :
But once the new owner claims it I would no longer be able to update it over-the-air for them, or change any of the Particle functions / variables for them ?
I thought the Photon was around 10x faster than the core so running web-pages on it would be possible. My current code doesn't do much, just loop around reading sensors and sending them every 10 mins so I think I would have plenty of remaining space for webpages. It also would have been nice to run webpages so that I don't have to integrate a screen for faster sensor readings every couple of seconds.
