Aaaargggh ....hed have sold out of Aiwa

H-Man (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Thursday, 23rd November 2000, 21:44

Having been convinced that the Aiwa is the best player for my budget I finally log on to hed only to find they have sold out and do not expect any more.

Call me tight but I don`t want to pay those rascals at comet the extra £30.

Anybody know of any other places I can buy this ??

Also has anyone tried a RCE disk yet ?

Yep The Patriot plays with the region set as 0.
Also all my discs that had suffered problems with other machines(Yelo 800/Hitachi 505)seem to play OK.
Not noticed any banding or background problems either.
Sound is great with mp3 as well.
Pay the extra and get it from Comet you won`t have to wait for it to arrive.
Also who knows it the next batch will have the same firmware and hack will still work.

Dammit man! Couldn`t you have posted last night and saved me £16!!??

Oh well.. it`s still a good film I s`pose! lol

And I would assume the next batches will have the same firmware...at the rate these are going, I cant see Aiwa having the time to reprogram chips!

And if you really don`t wanna pay the extra try hitting
www.Switch-it-on.co.uk..I have heard Michael is getting these in soon. Send him an email! :o)

(by the way, he`s ACE and extremely fast to deal with!)

AIWA 370 (officially) ROCKS!!!!!!.

Sorry for the delay in replying.
The Patriot jumped in several places - duff disc?.No - played OK on my
Ati software on the computer.
And the Aiwa had no problems either.
The only thing against the Aiwa 370 that I`ve noticed so far is some disc`s
take a while to load.eg.Disney.
If I encounter any other problems I`ll keep you informed.

Cheers
Jerry.
