Im just talking to the force field around the team Moxie, you are one of them, You cant even speak the truth, the 15th was a date that was given to us by craig himself in ana email from the factory. so how can the 15th have been generated by the this forum, when it was given to us by craig himself. and the time zone is a no brainer, it is still saturday in china, and not friday, when we were told we would here something. go back and get together with one of the other force field members around the team and that is awakening. yall never do anyhting except to defned the team against any and all comers, regardless of the truth. This project is out of control and they have no idea with what to do, except to tell the hard working paying customers, who put their faith and money into this project, and to get the cold shoulder. Im glad you two like yourselves so much, im ashamed at my self into believing this project when I firsr heard about it. everyone was so talkative, now all the security agents do is defend the team, and dont care that it was the customers who casuded the project and forum to be built..

See my previous post. The 15th was a date given by the Chinese factory.

There's no point in getting worked up now. The factory may or may not finish and ship the new revision on the 15th, but then they're going to take at least 3 days to get to Craig. Then a couple more days for samples to go out to MWeston and ED, and maybe a few more days before everybody decides whether they're acceptable. And that's if the factory finishes and ships them tomorrow. They haven't exactly been the pinnacle of punctuality so far.

So relax. Nothing is going to happen for several days yet, and I'm sure OP will let us know when something does happen.

Quoting myself, because apparently you folks with all the unreasonable expectations missed it the first time. If nobody has posted an update, it is because there isn't an update yet. You'll know what's going on as soon as there is something to know.

People just want to know whether it's been shipped or not, that is not unreasonable. It's a simple yes or no question that by now Craig or any of the team can answer.

You are right, wanting to know is not unreasonable. Threatening to cancel your order, and making accusations toward forum members however is. Also, you are right that it is a simple yes or no question, but you are wrong that any of the team can answer it. For example: If someone send an e-mail to another asking them a question, they can not tell some other person the answer to that question until the e-mail is replied to, so that they know the correct answer. You have no way of knowing if Craig even talked to the Chinese manufacturer on Friday, so you don't even know if he has an answer to give.

If that were the case, then I would rather know that Craig heard nothing. I wouldn't hold it against him or the rest of the Pandora team. I may curse the manufacturers under my breath, but I'd rather know that they heard nothing on a day that they were supposed to hear something, than not be told anything at all. You see?

This would probably work on the DS if the PA_Lib library was working.

Code:
#include <PA9.h>

   int main(void){

   PA_Init();
   PA_InitVBL();

   PA_InitText(1, 0);

   int Year = PA_RTC.Year;
   int Month = PA_RTC.Month;

   PA_RTC.Month += 2;

   if(Month > 11){
      Month -= 11;
      Year += 1;
}

   PA_OutputText(1, 0, 0,"The Pandora release date is");
   PA_OutputText(1, 0, 1, "%02d:%02d:%02d", PA_RTC.Hour, PA_RTC.Minutes, PA_RTC.Seconds);
   PA_OutputText(1, 0, 2, "%02d/%02d/%02d", PA_RTC.Day, Month, Year);
}

You should go back and read the Chinese email again, it never said anything about OP hearing anything on the 15th. Just that the molds would be finished, nothing more, nothing less.

I knew this would happen because people have been reading far too much out of a simple message ever since Craig posted it.

Using simple logic, I worked out that were the moulds to be finished, one of the OP team would have received a message saying that this was the case. Silly me.

Now, this will all be fine and dandy, if you show me where someone "told we would here something". As far as I know, the only info given by craig was that the factory would be finished with the mould mods the 15th. But, by all means, I might be wrong. Show me a quote where craig (or someone similar) says that there will be new information the 15th, and I'll happily shut up.

And the Chinese factory was so speedy with their emails last time that they sent one to apologize that the cases had not been made or sent AFTER they were expected to have already arrived at MW. We are talking days here...

Calm down people, this argument is silly :)

A follow up to this one would be appreciated, imo. So I'm with Nova.

Spoke to the factory today, everything is looking good for tomorrow.

We all want updates but I don't find it reasonable to whine about there not being any yet. Even the Chinese company might have nothing to say at this moment. If they have finished the mold then they need to actually make cases to know how it went and normally when you take stuff from one area of a factory to another it has to wait in line for the other machine. If they haven't made any cases yet they really have nothing to report.
