Hi, I need some guidance on using an Iron Flask in 3.0.

The 3.0 SRD doesn't have any limits on the number of times an Iron Flask can be used, but the 3.5 SRD contains the sentence "The command word can be given only once per day." Since this sentence is absent from the 3.0 SRD (and I couldn't find it in any errata), does that mean there is no limit to the number of times it can be used? If the creature makes its save, can it be used against the same creature during the next round? That seems awfully powerful...

Also, if the command word is used to force the creature to serve for 1 hour, what happens at the end of the hour? Does it automatically re-enter the flask, get to make another save at +2, or immediately turn on the user? (Those seem like the 3 logical possibilities.)

Thanks!

Check the gold values. If both flasks are the same price then the 3.5 Iron Flask is the errata version of the 3.0 Iron Flask.
