Thanks man! Everyone seems to be putting a ton of effort into getting these little gods shipped out. Thanks again!

 

[FFNoir]

well i'm ordering mine there in a few days... how long will it take to get here? hopefully before Christmas...

 

[triton]

i got mnie today, its number 117 if the info page number is acutal unit number. it DOES have a first edition thing on it too

 

[bmilleker]

Oh cool. Whats the firmware number marked as? I heard some of them have 1.01, and some have 1.00

JUST GOT MINE!

I'm opening the box now... strange I thought the box would be a bit bigger than this. Hey... where's my preorder case? ... worry about it later I guess.

Okay the way the front of the unit is all open like this makes me feel uneasy, I really do wish it wasnt like this but maybe they intended it like this for people who want to install glass screens. *shrug*

The battery bulge is no where near as fat as I expected! But the battery door was a bitch to take off so I could install batteries. and once I did I discovered the unit was shipped in the ON position... or maybe I accidentally turned it on while struggling with the battery door.

The buttons are firm, the stick is better than I expected, I dont feel like the dead zone is too harsh but I would hope it can be improved. I like that they added a button test so you can make sure everything is working.

I'm off to get something to eat and then maybe I'll look into it's video playback and MP3 player, I guess I should be glad I bought that 1gb last night! (hope it works!)


...David Chau? wait a sec, that name sounds familiar. I could swear I bought some stuff from you through ebay once... well more like I contacted you through them and I bought it on the side since I dont have an ebay account.

Version 1.0 as well. No Mine isnt like that. That shield on the front that has the white border comes as a peice you have to put on the unit. The actual screen is exposed (it has a protector you have to remove on it before you place the glass on the front though).

 

[bmilleker]

Do you get this protector with the purchase of the unit?

 

[junker]

mine has arrived this morning, too. usb issues now, going to try usbmon

 

[bmilleker]

I have been doing some reading, and the cover comes with the unit, but you put it on yourself?

 

[Jurrasic]

nm, I wouldn't be in the priority queue.

I hope the early Novembers will be shipped soon.

​

Basically I mean it's the screen that should[\i] be on the unit just like the front cover for most any other handheld. You know the old GBA and the black part that says "gameboy"? ...that.

 

[triton]

the screenprotector comes with it and is not attached you do it yourself, there is a nearly unnoticable clear vynal thing on the protector that you can peel off, there is also one on the lcd itsself that is a bit tricky to get off, AND there is one on the indicator thing on the bottom

 

[bmilleker]

Ok awesome! I thought you had to buy the protector seperate or something.
Thanks for clearing it up.

 

[greenmikey]

Anybody get a notice today?

 

[Russ Meyer]

I ordered on Sept 19 and I have sent two emails one saturday and one sunday and not even a response. I'm getting a little impatient, I think he could at least respond to my emails.

​

I know the feeling. Ordered Oct 7th and sent an e-mail this weekend and no response on either yet!

 

[greenmikey]

ya, I wouldn't worry about emailing if you were a november orderer. I ordered october 3rd because my stupid credit card was acting a fool so I had to get a new one. So, I'll just have to be patient.

aka, dont get your panties in a bunch because sept people still haven't got them, they were anxious so they deserve it.
