Hopefully they're better at getting product to their customers than Pyramix/Merging.

8*48kHz.

Aight. Er...no. EDIT: oh, and I forgot: green curry chicken from Crystal Thai.

No, wasn't meant as a joke, but you're still welcome to ignore it like one. I'm still thinking of rehousing my Grado headphones.

I wish they would support external bluetooth keyboards.

Koss Pro 4AAAAAAAAA, will those be big enough?

Smarties

Every other Oppo player is easily made region-free, IIRC. I don't see why this one would be any different.

Usually they run your card for the amount of the item, but don't put it through unless you don't return it.

LOL

Yeah, I have to agree with Wmcclain's premise, but on the other hand, the usual scenario is to charge the early adopters the higher price -- not the nicest thing to do, but certainly most early adopters allow for the possibility for the price to eventually tumble. Heck, they should call it $549 and be done with it. EDIT: And: no probs, I didn't think you were doubting me, I just tend to talk brusquely most of the time. The "incorrect" was directed at the line above, "I thought it was in the email". It was, of course, a reference to my many other uses of the word "incorrect", usually directed at others. Brusquely. But meant with humor. I guess you have to know me to get it.

It was in the email, I believe. EDIT: Incorrect, it was in the AVS Forum thread -- and I remember the phrasing being stronger, so they may have changed it. That'd be nice (if they kept it to $499), and considering the economy, I wouldn't put it past them to do so.

I can google, but thanks.

xn -- good-lookin' work

I can get a prior generation Mac Mini 2.0GHz for $549 -- is it worth it, or do I really want to get the new one? I've already decided (to wait and get the new one, or possibly even a Macbook Pro), just want to hear others' thoughts.

They have no plans on doing so -- they're jacking it up to at least $599 MSRP after the early adopter pricing.

Bread

Wow, the earliest thing I have by them is Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy, I didn't realize there was anything before that.

Old World Underground, Where Are You Now? is my favorite, but I haven't heard Fantasies yet.

What about if we took notes?

Bluetooth spec

Finally decided to put it down, eh? :rimshot:

Well, they couldn't exactly call it Appall McCartney, now could they? Where's Berry Preston?
