SHEEPDIP!! I could have ordered one for $75 but noone was answering my pleas to pick it up for me!!!! :|:|:|:|
I'm not happy... not happy at all.
Can one of the guys who picked up 3 or 4, etc, spare one for a guy with a Cirrus Logic POS video card? [sigh] :(

EDIT: There were two left when I called, too. [sniffle]
I feel so shafted.

BTW if anybody knows where to get the DVI connectors, share the info please. I've just emailed ATI (they're online store doesn't carry it), and hoping they'll give me an answer, but who knows how many days that'll take.

i ordered 2 DIV converters from ATI for $5CDN each plus shipping ($10)i wanted express hehe.

(905) 882-2626 <---------- that's the number to phone and order one.
u can also ask for a driver disk if you want the tuner to work.

Hey, Moral... who picked yours up for you? If they ever get any more, I'll be sure to have that person help out.
Well, at this point I'll get ANYONE to help out... I'm really losing faith here. :(

And if I had a car, I'd do the same... Too bad it's not an option. I could have bought one, I was on the phone, he had two left, DAMNDAMNDAMNDAMN!!! Grrrrrr!!!!! I just wanted to see if one of you guys would get it for me first.
I sure hope he does get more in like he said he might.
Might.

it's just a small pain to order the DVI converter but no biggie.

Yeah, i drove there.. only about an hour drive, and was very easy to find.

these were an awesome deal if there's nothing wrong with them. haven't checked yet, been too busy writing a paper, but i've already seen the 64meggers being sold on the newsgroups for $325 Cdn.

Also, maybe Kaiser_Sose or somebody could update this thread if any more come in, rather than having everybody whose interested in it keep calling them. Getting hundreds of calls for an out of stock product would piss me off, and it looks like they're only a two man operation.

And if anymore does come in, i WILL pick some up for any that needs it. I think another AIW would be nice for my little brother's computer, never thought about it at the time (i only had 3 hours of sleep before i went to pick up the cards today):eek:.

BTW, thanks for the number Kaiser_Sose... i'll order a DIV Connector tomorrow, even though i think that's highway robbery. I really expected that connector to be at MOST $20... not $50. Still, works out to be an awesome deal even at $50.

50?!

Holy crap...

Do other adapters work with the Radeon, or is it just the one that ATi has?

I mean...50 bucks for a freaking adapter is really ridiculous

and Oh, I managed to get in on the deal

Turns out he had one hidden somewhere, and he reserved that for me after about a solid minute of begging.

Heh

that makes a huge difference

hehe

oh yeah, u know for the vid in and vid out things, do we need the cables that came with the radeon, or should any cable work fine?

Meaning, are the jacks special ones, or just regular old jacks

any s-vid cable will work.. if you want that fancy dancy purple box thingy you have to order that... (i didn't ask the price when i called ATI)...

oh yea.. this place has other cheap ATI cards.. like 8 meg AIW's are $30 and i got a couple TV Wonder VE's for $9 each last week.

only prob is they come with no software... :(

heh, who needs software

do u get a discount or something? cuz the AIW 8 meg PCIs that i saw today were 40, still a good deal, but 30 sounds so much better

If someone could hook me up with a 32MB card, I would be very much appreciative. I'll either throw in some good, cold cash to cover shipping costs and time involved, or if anyone needs a 3-port powered USB hub with a builtin Ethernet adapter, I'll give you that + cost of the card and shipping :)
