It's kind of you to post.

I don't know which color I am receiving as I placed the order for "whichever is here first..."

I intend on also getting a good protective covering. Although it will be mostly desk top, it will travel with me. For normal portability, Mojo Poly will mow lawns, exercise, go for walks and engage me in waiting rooms and such.

thanks.

He said that it was a one-off, but I imagine that the guys from Van Nuys have been showing the case, in an attempt to get a feel for the level of interest, if they made the case commercially.

Exactly.

I recognize the pricing is not likely to have the Mojo Effect of mass audience of smart phone audiences, but all those who fell in love with Mojo may have had their eyes opened and...
that pretty much describes me. Mojo replaced everything for me and now Hugo 2 will be the desktop primarily.

Is Monday a holiday in Europe? I hope there are no bizarre disruptions in transportation as we saw in London yesterday!

Mike, you'd be interested to know that we found an expresso machine and the coffee brand we had in Geneva and am enjoying music with a black coffee this Sunday early am.

Any guess on a new album we are listening to, as we await H2?

Monday is a holiday in the UK (also school mid-term holidays).
Monday 5th is the equivalent holiday in France.
They are still having disruptions today. One problem that transport systems have, is that when a major hub like Heathrow closes for flights, aircraft flying their outward leg, cannot make the return leg either, and so you end up with downstream disruption because empty aircraft become stranded at the 'wrong' airport. The same happens when there are train disruptions, but the impact is often less widely publicised.
It beggars belief that BA were able to design, and then implement, an IT system with a single point of failure, when that failure can affect so many passengers globally.
All the affected families will be having a holiday that they will never forget, for the wrong reasons. If their flight was cancelled yesterday, and cancelled again today, then they will end up losing at least two days of their holiday (plus trying to keep any bored children amused) - compensation lawyers will be rubbing their hands with glee.

It ain't no Hugo 2, butit is a bliss nontheless. On Tuesday my better half and two mini-mes return from their month-long trip to their relatives on the other side of the world, so I am enjoying the quiet peace while it lasts. I kind of hoped I'll be enjoying H2 by now, as listening sessions will be swapped yet again to the fun with family, but in a beautiful day like this, who would care less :). Fellow headfiers, enjoy a perfect day today!

What's the wine? And what's that black box connected to your phone?

Your picture makes me wish that I hadn't finished my bottle of Pouilly-Fumé yesterday, and instead saved half of it for today. :disappointed:
You will soon have your Hugo 2, some dealers have stated shipping starts tomorrow.
