That's good to know, thanks Jim. I'm sure the cheapie throw-in's that Hyperdrive includes aren't the best to use.

I got the shipment confirmation Email. The tracking number tho, doesn't work on UPS's site. Maybe it's just a matter of time, maybe there's a typo on my tracking number. I'll try again later. If that's so, my order should be here around friday

Initially my tracking number didn't work but I guess I tried it too soon after I got the Email - things are looking up.

Package Progress:

Location Date Local Time Activity
SUNNYVALE, CA, US 03/22/2006 6:18 P.M. ORIGIN SCAN

Tracking results provided by UPS: 03/22/2006 9:38 P.M. Eastern Time (USA)

It is not uncommon that the UPS tracking number doesn't register online until 11 pm or midnight. Give it a little time. Chill...chill...or serenity now ... serentity now...

The tracking number won't work until UPS actually pick the package up and scan it into their system.

In my case it took two days before the tracking number was valid, since the shipper did not drop the packages off on the original ship date. I think your orders will be fine.

After a little search for Photobank storage device I came across this one and ordered one.

paid with AMEX to PayPal.

Just after I ordered I came across this

http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1023&message=17684007

and got a little nervous and tried to cancel the order at

www.hyperdrive.com but found NO WAY of cancelling my order nor found a telephone number at their URL.

I send email to [email protected] to cancel it.

After going thru the postings in dpreview forum I did a search in Google for SANHO LLC (which ist hyperdrive,com) and found this

http://www.cesweb.org/attendees/directory/rd_exhibitor_details.asp?exhibid=9141

I dialed the phone number listed there (408) 716 3060 and got a recording with a woman's voice and NO COMPANY name...

something smell very fishy ..to me it stinks!!!!!

If you read the whole thread it is apparent that Sanho is a garage operation. However, people seems to be receiving products - eventually.

I seriously doubt that Sanho is a garage operation. If so, I would like to have it in my garage.

The US Hyperdrive distributor is a garage operation, or more literally a luxury condo operation. However I'm fully behind garage operations, especially ones that ship promptly, communicate well, and answer their emails. Let's hope they get back to that level soon.

Well, garage or not, my device is in Brazil. It arrived yesterday at night... but instead of delivering today, UPS broke the 3 days delivery, claiming to deliver only on monday. Oh boy :| At least, it's here.

Update. UPS just phoned. I will pay around US$30,00 on customs taxes, and they will deliver. Then, I asked "Hey, since the package is already in Brazil, can you deliver today? I have somewhat of a commitment for monday ( true, classes ), and I would apreciate if the item was delivered still today". The guy said "Sure, no problem", so, I guess I will have the unit today

Yeah Baby
