If it carries a monthly fee it's a 100% no go and I think will be for lots of folks. I'm really hoping that they've signed up enough content providers to provide whispernet-like "free" internet access and it'd damn well better have integrated wifi. I have no interest in another ~$30/mo data plan for something that will sit on my own wireless network for a good portion of the time.
I guess it'll be interesting to see what they release tomorrow for details.
Yeah, I think the color buttons are broke but colors are still working, see my sig for proof (I think).
[edit]Or maybe it's just for some folks?
Test of red text using button.
Test of Orange.
Lots of forum search functions seem broke.
Example #1 - if I click on a user and hit find posts it seems to find a random selection of posts by that user, but doesn't provide any preview of the posts (just titles) and also doesn't find very many posts.
Example #2 - if I click on the # of posts in a thread it still brings up the list of who has posted how many times but if I click a number, which previously would have displayed a list of posts by that user in a particular thread, it just again shows a random list of posts by that user in all sorts of different threads and doesn't appear to even be chronological.
Yes, that is excellent.
One more minor request - when viewing stuff like the "recent posts" option there isn't much differentiation between the thread and poster information. It'd be sweet if either by color or some other signifier the two things could be more easily delineated. Oddly, on my phone the poster info shows up larger than the thread title, one more reason to buy tapatalk I guess.
I think it has more to do with a lot of folks not running HC in the full window while browsing. I know I run a partial window a lot of the time to allow for quick switching between different applications.
For now the SB3 is the source/preamp but that's due to change within a week. Ultimate goal is to case up the TP Ventus as a preamp and get the EAD DAC back from Mark and use that in the stack as the D/A stage and source selection device. The SB3 "stand" is my Thorens CD player which will remain is disc spinny thing in this rig. It's a bit of a quirky beast but the smallish footprint helps.
Finished the day off yesterday by doing a massive amount of cleaning and organizing in the DIY section of the house. I also spent a while installing the newest member of the Nugget Audio family and yes, I realize that given the state of my workbench it seems impossible to imagine that I did any cleaning/organizing.
I'm going to build a small scale flexy to sit on top of the table that will serve as both an equipment stand and also speaker stands. Already, it's clear to me why people love these monitors even with just the SB3 as the source.
Obviously I started my day the same way, stopped by Todd/skullguise's on the way home to pick up moar stuffs and then got home in time to put Lily down for a nap. Now trying to deal with all the stuffs and clean up my work and storage area in preparation for operation: QUAD. In other words a Sunday full of win so far.
Jin, let me know when you want me to send out the router.
Testing, testing, 123. Yup, works just fine now.
One other problem, all of the forum galleries got renumbered so that previously linked images now point to completely random things. See Dinny's DAC FS thread for a good example.
Justin just posted about the same problem and came up with a workaround. If I hit the reply with quote button twice it opens a new page with the quoted post and I can submit that reply. Crappy, but at least it works.
I'd also love it if I could simply reply to a post and quote it. When I hit "reply with quote" it opens a sub window that has the quote, allows me to type but gives me no option to submit the damn post. If I hit the quick reply button at the bottom of the page it does nothing. If I hit the go advanced button again, nothing. If I hit reply to thread I get a new page, without the fracken quote. I'm either retarded or this is way harder than it should be.
