 Meshtastic 1.2 was a beta version that has been superceded by 1.3. Version 1.2 is fundamentally incompatible with any 1.3 versions of device firmware, flashing utilities, or client applications.
 
-While 1.2 is end of life, it may continue to be useful for certain networks with Android only users, or users of ATAK until the forwarder is updated.
-
 - Last 1.2 Python api version install: pip install meshtastic==1.2.95
 - Final 1.2 Meshtastic Flasher install: pip install meshtastic-flasher==1.0.106 (Do not attempt to install 1.3.x firmware with this release)
 - [Final 1.2 Device Firmware](https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware/releases/tag/v1.2.65.0adc5ce)
