Yes - that is what I recall was stated for the T20/T40/T80 beta - that DLP was not used much if at all on the low end table top models, and DLP consumes a fair amount of memory & CPU.
Here is some further update on the DLP service, adding to what Bruce has stated above:
DLP has not been included on our newest appliances – Firebox T20/T40/T80 and even the higher end M4800/M5800, and it will not be included on new products in the future.
Customers reported that our DLP solution was too limited and it had low adoption rates in our install base. Our OEM would not commit to a roadmap to make improvements that we had requested.
A formal announcement about future of the DLP service will go out shortly. We will continue to support current customers for 3 years beyond July 2021 with bug fixes, but we will not invest in new enhancements in the service.

Hi @RVilhelmsen
I'm not exactly sure what you mean here. Can you please explain a bit further?

I see DLP is not a option anymore for the new devices, T20/T40 and newer units.
I Guess IT is being discontinued?
"DLP is not supported for Firebox T20, T40, T80, M4800, and M5800 models."

Exactly. Maybe it was not a service which was used by many customers?
