I'm surprised I didn't see this posted anywhere.. But the Rio Tuner is now on sale at www.riohome.com. However they are listed as OUT OF STOCK.

Happy ordering!

Hmm, our UK shipment hasn't arrived yet - maybe the eStore will beat us to it!

Rob

Hmm, nope, I don't see it.. where is it listed?

Rob

Go to www.riohome.com - Under products select Car Audio- Click the details button - Click Buy Now - Scroll all the way to the bottom.. There it is.. Rio Tuner $99.

Just ordered. No belch about out of stock (yet, anyway).

Thanks for the heads-up.

Jim

Ermm... nope! The bottom item is the car mount, no tuner is listed.

This is the URL i tried.

Rob

It shows up for me when I click on that link. I, too, did not see it there the first time, but now I do see it there.

Must have just now been updated.

Yep, it wasn't there 2 mins ago - maybe it dissapeared while they updated the stock status. It now shows In Stock.

Rob

So who gets the prize for placing the first-ever US tuner order? CruzThs or JimHogan?

I have no idea - the deepest secrets of the eStore are not revealed to me.

Rob

According to my order form that was sent in e-mail, I ordered at 3:41 PM PST. Jim, when did you order?

So does this mean that US owners who got the Mark 1 to Mark 2 upgrade special are to be contacted soon? Or are all those tuners shipping from the UK?

Woohoo!!!

Argh... but no remotes are available. Any idea when they are gonna be up? I wanted to order them together to save on shipping.

PS... someone might wanna update this page saying that "The Rio Car Player will have an add-on FM Tuner module available around June '01'."

Laugh while you can, Monkey Boy, there's a chance they'll get one before you do.

Never mind, just got your e-mail about it earlier.

Time to reply with my corrected address.

Subject: Empeg Tuner Module

Dear empeg Owner,

According to our records you purchased a Mk.2 player from empeg last
year, taking advantage of the Mk.1 owner upgrade offer. This offer
entitled you to a discount, a free carry case and a free tuner module.


Does this count? :) 4:18 EST, 1:18 PST. :)

(O|||||O)

"According to my order form that was sent in e-mail, I ordered at 3:41 PM PST. Jim, when did you order?"

No timestamp on the order, but the e-mail I got about 10 minutes after committing the order is stamped 17:55 CDT, so looks like you may have me by a few minutes. Darned kid I hired to watch the URL was out playing Little League. Consider his pay docked!

Jim

Yes that's unfortunate, but I guess there's no point holding them back from the US store just because our stock for upgraders hasn't arrived yet.

Rob

Umm.. well some of the alpha testers had them then, but I see your point.

There are probably statements somewhere on the web saying there will be a tuner in June 2000 for that matter.

Rob

What about the Extra Car Mount and the Extra Remote. When are they available at the international store?

Thanks

Oh,

I've not got an email as yet - have they all gone out yet? I did upgrade, but about a month or two after everyone else, but that shouldn't matter (I did get the discount).

Cheers,

Paul.

Oops.. remotes will be available from whenever I'm next at work (Tuesday probably). Extra mounts are awaiting wiring looms, I'll chase the manufacturer next week.

Rob

Not working the bank holiday, there's just no commitment at empeg anymore

Unit serial number 47 (was 330 in the queue)...

any idea about when the US Store will have remotes?


|| loren.cox ||

In fact until I emailed everyone on Friday and reminded them to stay home on Monday, several of them had forgotten all about it. Maybe I should have stayed quiet

Anyway, I've not made it to the trance festival I'd set the weekend aside for, so maybe I will pop in to work - just to put those remotes into stock!

Rob

Living in Oz, even if i were the first to have one ordered and shipped, I doubt that I'd get it before anyone else. I just don't have to pay for it on account that I payed quite a lot in the beginning for a mk1 & a mk2.

Tony, I thought someone else was your monkeyboy. oo oo o screech a a a aa a aa.

No, it must be me. I think I'm flattered.

As the tuners seem to be available in US now... when do you expect them to be delivered in Europe to be available from the UK-store?
Will you make an announcement?
