I've already the TTS software, so I'd like to know if there are USB sticks which can make the same job so i can save a little $
If this is possible I'm really interested in buying a Bushido because I'll not like to have a double TTS DVD for the price of 1/6 of the Bushido for just tha ANT dongle !

The same thing crossed my mind the other day. Garmin do an ANT+ USB stick for their kit. Not sure how much it would be in dolars, but it's £40 in the UK. Can't see why it wouldn't work, although if anyone can confirm that would be good.
Don't see the point in having to pay for tts twice if I get a Bushido.

The TTS Bushido upgrade is version 1.3
TTS version ATM is 1.2
IMO

I bit the bullet and forked out for the upgrade (overpriced), because I wanted the functionality - it's like Polar selling their usb irda for £48 when you can get a generic one for £5 or less!

Ooookay... did I understand correctly:
My TTS Software I bought some months ago (for my fortius), isn't working in combination to the bushido (even I have that usb-ant)??
Maybe I just have to update the TTS-Software to 1.3? This isn't possible? they can't stuck on that 1.2 Version, do they?
So what's the official message of Tacx for that case?

Just now you need 1.3 to be able to connect to the Bushido.

To make the Bushido work today yes, But TTS will get an update with new functions & bug fixes then it could be the case that you just need the Dongle. best mail Tacx & see if you do not mind waiting.
