Re: HD DVD player updates


Well, my girlfriend just called and said that she just discovered a package from FedEx waiting on the doorstep. It's not the Blu-Ray player, though. She said it's "some DVDs."

I have no idea what that means, but I'll let you guys know more when I get home in a couple of hours....

I feel like the banker in Casino who asks Deniro if he trusts his wife . . . Gregory, can't you just ask your gf to open the package?

Re: HD DVD player updates


Looks like the HTF A2ers are lucking out on the general HME attendee titles (which XA2ers won't get, as our players came directly from Tosh). If Gregory's shipment and posts from a few early recipients back on 9/27 are any indication, it looks like Babel and Seabiscuit are shipping together and then, separately, Heroes and Scanner Darkly.

Gregory, I think you're the first Heroes recipient (at least the first to post word of receipt)! When you get a moment tonight, post word of whether the titles were shipped together or in separate boxes and via what means they shipped por favor. (It would be odd if they're packaged together, as that might mean XA2ers might get Scanner.)

Wooohooo, my cute FedEx girl just delivered my Panny. Now I need some HDMI cables for it, and the XA2 (the blue one we got is going from the receiver to the TV).

Re: HD DVD player updates


I don't understand how I'm the first to get Heroes. I live all the way across the country.

It appears that I got 2 shipments today. FedEx has updated the web tracking information. At 3:32 I got a "Delivery exception - Customer not available or business closed." Hopefully I can pick up the BD player tonight.

Re: HD DVD player updates


Hell, if Greg got Heroes, I should get mine since I live a state closer to California than Greg.

Re: HD DVD player updates


Alright folks, let me be the 2nd to report receiving Heroes and A Scanner Darkly today. Fedex just dropped them off along with the Panny player which required a sig of course.

Edit: I'm in Wisconsin...shipped from MN.
