I just visited the HeadAmp website and there is an area to pay using "Google Checkout" or "PayPal".  What is the preferred method of ordering a Pico?  Do I post here, or do I place an order on the Headamp website?

Order via the HeadAmp Web site, the pre-order phase has long since passed. Incidentally I'm selling mine if you might be interested, here's the link: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/506356/fs-headamp-pico-dac-amp-silver

I got a shipping note concerning my long long long awaited pico..claiming shipping date was 22 july...still waiting..this has been the most torturorous retail experience ever...

 

[mwfewing]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!  Pico USB DAC has finally arrived.....might even go to church this Sunday.....initial impressions are ok...the thing is absolutely  tiny...not wildly different in sound  from the total bithead...but beautifully built.....what happens when the re-charegable battery eventually goes kaput?? spares anybody?

Justin sells replacement battery.

How long did it take from the day you ordered it to the day it arrived?

I bought my 8th of July, and I´m still waiting for it. Not the fastest guys

 

[mwfewing]

Ordered mine 28th of May.... got a note on 25th july saying it had been shipped...then arrived another month after that...I could have rowed across the atlantic ocean and collected it quicker.
the product is v. good....but the zero service drives you nuts!!!!!!!!!!.....am looking forward to the next long wait when i order the spare battery....

Running LOW:
 
Pico w/ DAC (Orange) -- 1 case left, probably the last of this color
Pico Amp (Red) -- not advertised, anodizer made mistake.  only 1 in red (supposed to only be for Pico w/ DAC).  have to contact me about this one.

I received my Pico Dac last Saturday.  It took about 10 weeks from the day I ordered it.  The build quality and sound are excellent and it is even smaller than I expected.  It is a great product.  I hooked it up to my iPad through the camera connection kit and a USB cable and the iPad outputs the digital sound stream to the Pico's DAC and it really sounds great.  I highly reccomend this product.
