I am so psyched... RioCar arrives today!

I've read the FAQ, several times... I've searched for every topic not found in the FAQ - almost none.
I've downloaded suggested software out the wazoo during my wait for the unit.
And I even bought a home docking station, and red lens, for the RioCar I haven't yet received.
Today.... Mr Fed Ex will deliver the GOODS.

It feels like 1966, Christmas Day, once again.

Congrats!

You'll see that the Empeg will fulfill your every expectation, I'm sure!

Yup, I remember the day mine arrived. I drove the 40 minutes home at lunch to pick it up and the 40 minutes back, even though all I could do with it for the rest of the day was to power it up and look at it.

I uncorked a bottle of super-premium wine from my cellar for that ocasion. Was very nice.

I went into work on a day off just to get a US to UK power adaptor.

I was at work and the USPS man came when I wasn't home, so the little red "We missed you, package at the post office" slip was all I had to come home to. Worse, I had to wait until the next day to go pick the box up at the post office.

But when I finally got it, oh boy, I uploaded the month's worth of newly ID3 tagged and organized music and I was SET! Within 10 days, I had it installed in my car, and after a brief return visit to the installer to fix the ground noise, I was set. Dark Green lenses were ordered from Darkstorm, pictures were taken, and the install pr0n was posted.

Well, after 4 Darkstorm lenses, a second empeg, a new hard drive, a Mark Lord dock, an RMA'ed hard drive, and a Eutronix button/knob light kit; I'm STILL impressed by my empeg every time I glance down and see it doing some awesome real-time visual or something. Such quality!

Shades of '99....

Good man, you are about to go through what I can describe in all honesty as a Life Changing Experience - no joke. Enjoy yourself!

It's great to see this post - reminds me of the early days....

I got my baby late yesterday afternoon and I couldn't wait for the family to go to sleep so I could go back into my office. (I don't think I've ever said that before. )

I didn't get to bed until almost 4am, and now have to get outta my office to get ready to go to my daughters 4th grade graduation. Still, I thought I'd quickly post before going to do so.

I have the unit hooked up in my office to my network and instlled the latest Emplode to my PC. Using an ethernet connection I was able, after two sync failures to download three albums of music to the RioCar. I have some questions, which I can't find in the FAQ, but I'll post those Qs in another thread...

Otherwise, all seems to be working perfectly! This thing is soooooo cooooool. I can't imagine waiting so long to get this unit or any MP3 unit.

Welcome...

The synch failures trouble me. It shouldn't do that if you're using Emplode 2.0, player firmware 2.0, a good ethernet connection, and there are no problems with the disk drives.
