With all the talk on the list about these things, and considering the price, I could no longer resist temptation and ordered two from nichegeek.
First, I was amazed at the speed at which I received these units. The order was placed last Friday, the shipment went out late Saturday and I received them today (Tuesday). In my experience, it has always taken two weeks or more to receive anything from China. I couldn't believe I got these in just three days. BTW, I paid $38 each with the free shipping. An outstanding deal IMO. I also received the semi-useless freebies. My only quibble so far is that both units were packed in nothing more than a large envelope, with a thin layer of bubble wrap added. Nothing is dented or rattling around, so hopefully they are OK. I'm just about to wire up a cable and power them on, so I'll know soon. The units I got have numbers of UN 71xxx and UN 78xxx. I don't know exactly what this means, but according to the ebay sellers, they are claiming that 6xxxx and 7xxxx numbers indicate newer units. Can anyone decipher this number sequence?
