Hi, gang!

Just wanted to properly introduce myself. So I'll tell a little story...

After I always dreamed of having an empge, but never been able to afford one, I now have three of them coming my way. Wow! Talk about things getting out of hand! (My credit card is in a delirium.)
First, I bought a MkI on ebay, to give to myself as a Xmas present. Yes, this was before the price drop. 8-(
After the drop, I said for $199 you can't be wrong, so I ordered a 10GB, but it showed out of stock. After reading this board, I lost all faith in that unit ever coming in. So I ordered a 30GB, which showed in stock due to the flukes on the estore. Guess what? I received tracking numbers for both!
So, while I'm still without one, I may have a whole family next week!

That gives me time to learn about installation. Mine will go into my Honda Insight, a car as truly remarkable and revolutionary as the empeg. And almost as rare. And possibly having a similar fate 8-( Oh well, let's hope for the best!

Glad to be with so many friends!
Armin

Welcome. And there is already someone else on the BBS who has installed their player into an Insight, so do some searches and locate the threads about that.

Make sure to skim the FAQ at riocar.org.

Is Insight that hybrid car that even those performance car nuts at Car&Driver wrote enthusiastically about? Congratulation on your toys!
