Best Buy does have a lemon policy, you should ask about it when you get it back this time. They had to replace my D70 under that rule.

Oh, I mean when you get it back. Then you can say, "Look, I just had this thing fixed and now it's dead again." If this was the first time it'd had an issue I'd never suggest such a thing but given the craptacular history I'd say it's warranted.

Let me know if I need to get out the welding magnets, you'll have a lemon on your hands in about 5 minutes. And let me know if you need a loaner pod. The Zune is working out great and my 20gig 3G technically still works.

Ok, so the HCT/Dared arrived this afternoon. Initial thoughts have me laughing Dr. Evil style that I paid as little as I did for it. For one thing it's in pretty good shape, just a minor mark here and there and it sounds pretty decent. There's something a bit artificial about it but I don't really care about its performance as a headphone amp, I'll be much more interested to get it home and see how it does driving a small pair of bookshelf speakers. I've got a little pair of Boston Acoustics HD-5s that are itching for something to shake the dust off them.

The mini3-2 will be getting the 4-pin treatment. I've been swayed, it's one less hole to cut and I'm lazy.

All of the parts for the mini3-2 have arrived. Now if I could just get out of work before 9 tonight I might actually get to start something. :'(

At least the "newbie" title fits.

Pffft, don't feel bad Jack, I can't even afford the meetings!

I can't wait till every D5000 thread contains some version of "Dude you haven't heard the D5000s till you markl mod them. They kill the R10s."

Sox vs. Rockies

Geez, it's like every headphone they make is a Limited Edition. And I love how the OP hasn't bothered to come back and add any more information.

Just got back from UNH Hockey. 4-2 win, sweet.

I can't read this thread title without thinking that this must be some sort of after market UPS software...

Oh lord, is this what we're going to be stuck with now? It'll be like Reks and his speaker talk.

I don't think there's much magic to it, you just need to have real candle wick to make it work. Just soaking string in wax to impregnate it with fuel won't work very well. Otherwise it's just find a vessel, heat wax and pour around wick. My mom used to recycle candles.

Nice job Pete! How do they sound compared to stock?

Saw that thread this morning and had similar thoughts. Of course it should also be accompanied by a mass sell-off of D5000's in a few months which might not be so bad for those of us who might want to give them a spin.

I think all would have gone more smoothly if the OP had actually asked a complete question.

Exceptional Salty, exceptional.

JBsauce is not supposed to have a bad day either.

The pisser is that it's been 5 days in transit for a trip that usually takes 3.

NOS! I'd be out of a job!

Stupid f'ing UPS, they've had my package of parts less than 50 miles away for the past three days. No mini3-2 this weekend.

I believe that to be the first instance of a computer using a smiley, what's next, world domination?
