    Yay! It shipped!

    My Meerkat Ion is supposed to be here Monday! The wait has been crazy, but it's finally done being build and is on it's way. I can't wait to hook it up to my nice new Samsung monitor and start transferring over files. I put a 500GB drive in it along with 4GB of RAM so I"m hoping it performs pretty well despite the slow Atom processor.

    My Lemur just shipped yesterday! UPS says it'll be here Wednesday, I'm hoping for sooner *fingers crossed*

    I chose a faster shipping option because I knew the wait for it to build would be long enough. I think I got the two day air, but of course the weekend was thrown in-between the day it shipped and the day it arrives.

    Glad I'll have it by the extended Memorial Day weekend. I'll be able to play with it all weekend.

    That's a great feeling, the day of arrival and unboxing! Got a new Pangolin recently, and even though it's been a couple of weeks the feeling lingers. Congratulations, and enjoy!

    Ugh...I would be enjoying it right now but the wireless doesn't work. It won't connect to my network.

    Yes that was me. I also had the wireless problem but got it resolved. Right now I'm just using DVI as video and I got sound to work through an audio input. Oh well, I can still play HD videos through DVI so I'm not too worried about this.

    If you're happy, I'm happy.
