    Just after getting the following email:

    Dear iBOOD’er,

    On the 29th of March you have placed an order for the Commodore Multi Media player on iBOOD.com. Unfortunately the delivery of the players has been delayed. We will be able to ship the Commodore players tomorrow, which means your order should arrive shortly after the weekend. Our apologies for the delay.

    Kind regards,

    Customers Service iBOOD.com

    i got the same mail the last time i ordered something from them,it wasnt the pmp but it was at least 2 more weeks after the email before i got what i ordered


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,228 ✭✭✭Scruff


    yeah 5 days later and status is still "in progress" *sigh*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,907 ✭✭✭LostinBlanch


    Got the same email, still waiting. Gid knows how long though.

    It's a pity, cos they've now got a 160GB hard drive dvd recorder on their site for €99. Ain't touching anything on this site with a barge pole until I get my other order first of all.

    Ditto. Nice price for that dvd recorder but I'm hoping the PMC will do the job of recording TV. Just missing Time Shift on the PMC but hopefully the recording quality will be good.

    don't worry about it, ive bought loads of stuff from ibood with varying delivery times from 1 week to 3 weeks but they always arrive!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,683 ✭✭✭daveg


    Mine arrived today. It's allready full with all my DivX's etc. Gonna have to start culling.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 134 ✭✭Jacob55


    Congratulations daveg on getting your player, can you tell me if the status on the ibood website changed from 'in progress' to something else. Mine order still says 'in progress' so I'm just curious.

    Cheers

    What's your initial impressions of it?

    Mine is still In Progress but I got an email last week telling me they were shipping it on Friday.

    yeah seeing as you're the only one here so far to receive it why not give us a mini review ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    Damn, bummed I missed out on that... I'd also like to hear what you thought of it, daveg


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,907 ✭✭✭LostinBlanch


    Anyone else got theirs yet? I'm still waiting.

    Dave, did you contact them before it arrived?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,226 ✭✭✭hopeful


    I'm still waiting on an item ordered on 11 March. Still had no email response and phoning them was no better...would have had more luck talking to the cat!

    I will not be touching them again, even with someone else's bargepole :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,116 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Seconded!

    Still waiting for my iBOOD box! :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,226 ✭✭✭hopeful


    I've been busy at work so tomorrow will be the first chance I get to phone them again....going to have to try real hard to remain polite...best get a little practice in tonight ;)

    Would you believe I'm still copying DivX's to it!! Have not connected it to the TV yet. Everything about it has impressed me so far. Quiet, looks nice, fully featured remote, every cable you could want in the box (Lan/USB/Power cable + EU power cable etc etc). Copies video to the device with ease. Once I get it connected to the TV I'll post back.

    I did contact them previously and they told me it would ship that day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,694 ✭✭✭Dingatron


    I've just sent them an e-mail on when they expect to ship. Keep you all posted. Looks like a nice device daveg.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    dammit i want one :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,683 ✭✭✭daveg


    Hooked it up to the TV late last night. Extensive setup menu for video output formats and audio formats etc. Picture was excellent. One thing I really liked it that when you switch it off with the remote it switches fully off - not to standby. The remote will power it back off again. Unit is very responsive to remote. Not the fastest at loading a DivX but not too slow either. Very impressed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,312 ✭✭✭✭event


    ah im ringing them today if it doesnt come

    ill wait until 12, then ring after 1 if its not here


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,975 ✭✭✭podgeandrodge


    rang them - they were convinced that all shipped last friday but given easter admit that it could have been delayed until tuesday - they are gonna check and send me an email update but hope we receive it today or tomorrow - told them there were plenty of people in Ireland waiting still..

    will post the email when it arrives
