"Turns out this internet slang which you'll see on the boards and in chats means different things in different countries. In Thailand, (where I live) the number five is pronounced "Ha". So 555 means "HaHaHa" or the sound of laughter. According to wiktionary, in China, the number five is pronounced "Wu". So 555 in Mandarin Chinese is "WuWuWu", which is the sound of crying. Now I find out that the meaning of 555 in the United States is evolving to mean "OK". That's interesting... 555

^and to add to this final production number of the HF2.



This is....strange. A few minutes after reading this post, I popped in my Matrix HD DVD to test my new HD 600 (shootout in the government building is killer!). Anyways, remember how in the beginning of The Matrix, a grid of green numbers appear? Well, above the grid of numbers in the upper-left corner, a row of other numbers starts to appear. And the first three numbers that appeared? Yeah, that's right: 555

The odds of something like this happening is in the billions. That this actually happened can mean only one thing.

There is no HF-2.

We're all SOL. I just called Todd at his home and he confirmed that the whole production was being scrapped. The paypal folks are getting refunds and the rest of us will never be charged.

So, 25, including Todd's.

I WINNER.

Of course not, but it's just for fun, hence the word "game" in the thread title.

And don't read anything into that, people. I would never, ever... wait, what?



Crap, Uncle Erik beat me to it!

I have to say 25 as I heard a rumor that Grado was having production problems with these and only the people who got theirs in CanJam 09 will own these

who's going to be the first to sell theirs for over $2k ten years from now?...

seems to be the trend...

i'm not going to venture a guess, but i hope they make the very last pair special in some (positive) way...

Can anyone else verify that?

If this is not the case, 529.
