The tuners will only tune to FM, AM, and some of them will tune to weather frequencies. Its a tuner on a chip, I don't think its flashable for upgrades.

No, I think most people are reading pca's post. It's just that the ones that don't are reeeeeeeeally obvious.

So was the original "sign up" posting that you made now null and void? I thought this would get us in the queue for first production units? My guess is that 50 (now closer to 40 with the betas going out) will be gone faster than you can say empeg tuner and those of us left without will have another REALLY long wait
AS for the liability, I have lawyer friends that could write you a nice release (FOr US law which I assume would be the real worry) that I'm sure any true empeg owner who has waited over a year for a tuner opportunity would sign.
As for the credit card stuff Paypal is fine with most I would bet, those who don't could just wait until you find an acceptable credit deal

I doubt there would be that much of a wait for the second batch, patrick will have gotten the wheels in motion so I assume he'll just be waiting on parts and then he can just churn them out after that. I too am sh**ting myself about getting a tuner...

When was there a "sign up" posting? From what I remember it were a few posts to see how many people would be interested and to judge how much money people would be willing to pay.

Indeed, from pca's post starting the "Tuners II, The tuner strikes back!" thread:
Please DON'T email me placing an order, or say you want one here and expect me to remember it! I simply don't have the facilities or the time to winnow out orders from statements of interest and the like, and things will get lost in the shuffle. Place orders via the website when it goes live, which will be announced here.

Just getting on the thread so I can receive updates via e-mail, then via cell phone, and then pager. If that fails, I'll have it contact me through a fax in my super james bond-tricked out car with satellite receivers...then if that contact doesn't get through I'll just come back here and read the post... :-)

Don't laugh. I installed a port replicator in my car so I could plug my laptop into my empeg, gps (Delorme Earthmate), and a trackball mouse with one usb cable. After all that wiring I actually caught myself self thinking, "Hey... I've got a printer port...". Of course the printer would work usb but then I'd waste a port ![](/images/icons/smile.gif) The point of all of this being that I could actually get a fax in my car.

Think anyone can start developing the direct auditory interface that can replace our lousy speakers in the car by interfacing direclty with our internal ear drum and the digital out via the new infrared gained from the port replicator with USB and printer-out functions ... then can they also start the scanning module development that downloads all CDs while driving past a Sam Goody or Best Buy from the freeway going 75MPH? Of course, all this after they finish the XM Radio module...
