I am so fucking happy I pre-ordered.

Makes me glad I ordered a BioXX... got it in four days, no delay, no "misleading", and have been up and running with it for a week or so already.

                                    Well, I pre-ordered over 3 weeks ago, and I'm willing to bet that I won't get one either.

Satwizz : we got less st ck that anticipated

                                    This is the part that worries me.  And it sorta sounds like they might not have enough stock to fill all the pre-orders.

Oy.

This is certainly starting to sound fishy to me and a stunt to buy more time! I ordered on Sunday, however only today did my order status on the credit card state accepted.  There's no way they are shipping these things out in 48/24hrs timeframe their site states.  I bet we don't see these until next week!  Still testing them, you've got to be kidding me!  Boy the investors must have been putting alot of pressure on them for income return!  Not a good way to do business!

                                    Lucky you. I ordered on Sunday as well and I'm STILL pending.

b.t.w.


Thanks for posting the conversation with EasyBuy up for us thehecklerj.  

[MadEx]

Oh well, I wouldn't have had time this weekend anyway.

[flashbak]

MadEx,
You must have a really full schedule this weekend that you couldn't allocate 15 minutes!

[neksone]

my order last night, was accepted.....now its back to pending...

[0rbital]

Well I preordered mine 3 weeks ago too and it still says pending for my CC.  But I figured they wouldn't be ready ship on Monday anyways.  Now if I don't get it sometime next week I'll be pissed.  I'm getting a Live Beta kit on Friday so at least I have something to keep me busy this weekend

I think I'm going to cancel my order with EasyBuy and wait for my OpenXbox to come from Lik-Sang.

[cONEction]

hehe , this sounds like crap, first there are test issues , now they dont have enough chips in stock.

im happy i didnt wait for this chip  and didnt bought anything from this easyshit

).
But now everybody is upsett with easyshit 2000, and this could backfire on the Matrix popularity. I understand what the intention was of the Xodus team (protecting their hmm....... intellectual property) and create a hype at the same time.

The only thing easyshit should have done is not cancel the openbox, but actually telling people of the upcomming Xodus, build in more time for actual shipping (people are usually happier to get there goods earlier than expected), and propose people to swap to xodus or not.

So if you would have ordered a openbox, you would have recived a mail telling you a new chip would be shipped 15 oct.  and if you were intrested in changing your order. If not, they should have just proposed to sent you what you ordered (even if they had to order it themselves somewhere else).
If you would have changed, all of you would now be happy, because it shipped two weeks ahead of schedule.

Marketing can be so easy.
