Re: HD DVD player updates


Adam...I know this hasn't been easy on you and you will surely be happy once this thing has been put to bed so...thank you. Wholeheartedly...thank you.
Ken...if you read this, thanks for stepping in. I think most of the reaction here in this thread and in PMs to Adam and Ron stems from anxiousness and not greed. At least I hope so. In the end, I can only speak for myself and tell you that I am like a kid awaiting Christmas morning as I anxiously await my players and movies.

Thanks for the extra title too. That's a nice gesture!

Jason

Re: HD DVD player updates


I wasn't able to get the XA2 tracking numbers today, but I did find out that they went out alphabetically by last name. The first 10 yesterday, and the remaining 9 today.

I did get the tracking numbers for the A2s. They are being sent by FedEx prority overnight, so they will be delivered by 10:30 tomorrow.

Re: HD DVD player updates


Thx, A.

Chime in, Lucky 10. Those 10 XA2 recipients who got their mojo today: what titles are in the box? I doubt it but I'm curious if anyone happens to be getting Scanner Darkly, Babel and/or Seabiscuit.

50/50 chance that the A2 folks will get these. 0% chance the XA2 guys will as the players shipped direct from Toshiba.

Re: HD DVD player updates


Any word whether Heroes is in the A2 shipments since they didn't come direct from Toshiba?
I guess I'll find out tomorrow, right?
