Guys,
Check out this posting from Boy Genius. This pretty much says it all. They are having problems with their modems. http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/04/20/problems-in-oqo-land/#more-571

Then again, I told you so 2 weeks ago. I also sent a private email to David Ciccone and James about the delays to stop the debate among the two. But I think it was David who kept pressing the issue. David, the best thing for your to do is apologize to James and all the folks you swore didn’t know what they were talking. Since you had information from a OQO marketing guy, I guess you considered it reliable; as I said, why in the world would you ever trust a marketing guy about a product he is promoting…lol

I was told by Dynamism that there is a delay in shipping OQOs with WWAN because they found a problem with their software. Has anyone else been told this?

Tegatech and Expansys (Australian resellers) are still waiting for theirs…based on the photos though, I think that the OQO series certainly look the goods :)

I just called OQO about my order placed February 26th…Best config, XP Pro, no EVDO module. I was told to expect shipment mid-May, and I was also told that they have already sent out units to people who have pre-ordered. I told them that there is no mention of this on the blogs, and they said that maybe those who got them don’t read the blogs. I got a chuckle out of that one.

Not holding my breath,

Mark

yeah, david is most trusted source out there..

just like when he told us that q1 runs aero and posted picture of some other devices screen:

yea, we trust only you, man

Okay, guys. Lets at least give it up to David Ciccone for providing some good information on where I could get an OQO. I purchased one from RCS and was able to cancel the original purchase from OQO. The device is HOT!!! My new favorite thing (until of course…the next new thing!) I spoke with a guy from RCS.. it so happens we know some of the same people being that I just moved from the Tri-State area last March. Anyway, he said that they were among the first to get a bunch because they worked closely with OQO in launching and making the product available for viewing and demo with customers at their store in New York. Based on what I know about the store, I have every reason to believe him. But this also backs up the fact that OQO like all major handheld, laptop, and cellphone vendors always ship initial batches out to resellers. Most of them have already put in their requests long before an official announcements goes out. Vendors like OQO do this for obvious reasons; I just wish that they would be straight with customers and commit to dates.

I can say the device was well worth the wait!

Okay. This is silly. David what is really with you? Unlike yourself I am a real customer. I don’t do reviews or push products. I am sure your order came either after mine or you have one queued up before the official announcement. Who do you think you are kidding. You and Boy Genius and other sites like yours will always jump ahead of the pack because it is good PR for OQO. Hell Just Blaze had one long before anyone else. As I stated earlier; I ordered mine hours after the official announcement and haven’t got mine yet. So, If I ordered mine on the first day and still haven’t received them they are not fulfilling real customer (those without connections like Boy Genius) orders. David you are really killing yourself and any potential customer. For some reason I just get the feeling you just have to always be right.

David, last comment on this silly subject. The report stated that OQO was quoting a delay to customers. They are still doing so, whether some units are shipping or not. Give it up, it’s getting tedious.

James RCS in Manhattan has 16 OQO Model 02

Windows XP
1 Gig Ram

So I dont understand how you are saying the units aren’t shipping..

Awesome! One down and all the rest to go. Seriously, I hope for the sake of all those who ordered the OQO that they will get their devices soon. It’s great that Boy Genius got his OQO, of course if I recall correctly he also had a prototype which he reviewed so he’s probably not your ordinary OQO customer. David, I didn’t put your phone # on the comment thread, you sent a derogatory email to a reader here who took umbrage at that and posted your email. I don’t know why you’re so concerned about this post that had nothing to do with you whatsoever but you decided to make a personal crusade out of it for some reason. Let it go, man. FWIW, customers are still being told that there’s a delay with fulfilling their order so the original post still stands.
