Just received this:
 
 
[size=small]Thanks for your payment. We need your telephone number to arrange shipping, which is needed when local courier delivery the package to you. Pls reply ASAP. Or your package will be delayed.[/size]
 
 
So I responded immediately. Hopefully it won't be long now.

 
received the same email last night  

  .... I'm going to leave my socks off for the first session so they don't get knocked off when I fire it up .....

I was starting to get over the waiting, but the impressions thread has satisfied me enough that I'm just going to wait.
 
Edit: got an email asking for a phone number so i guess i shouldn't have to wait to much longer.

I certainly hope you get the HM602 it is a heck of a nice sounding unit that also can function a dac or feed a nice home amp should you wish to use it at home/office. Cheers.

BTW, anyone know if we are 'supposed' to use the included USB cable rather than an alternate?  That is a beastly, bionic USB cable.

It seems like the free RE-262 IEM is still included at the moment but that's impossible right? But then again if head-direct.com says so....

Impossible why?

  If you preorder HM-602 before Sept 1st, 2010, you will be able to get a new RE262 (top of the line) In-ear earphones for free.

 
That's why

.
 
It doesn't say you won't get them if you order later though.
 

 

[asrphani]

don't worry about it.The content in the opening post is related to pre-order batch 1.You'll get a free iem even now.

 

[mcmalden]

That's kind of weird though, how can they offer a pair of 200$ earphones (they are 200$ right?) for free? It seems that the hm-602 should cost 200$ less

.
Well I hope that it's really a great offer but companies seem to have this drive to make profit

Anyone hear anything more in regards to the HM602 delivery? ......still patiently waiting here.............

So got a reply from Nankai.  He says the included USB is just a standard USB cable.  Though it doesn't look like one...

Why doesn't it look like a standard usb cable? Because it has ferrites?

I don't get it either.  Why go to the trouble of making a cable like that when you can just use a cheapo USB?  I'm seriously concerned about using a standard usb cable till I get a proper answer.  Perhaps my question wasn't explicit enough or was misunderstood.  Would it help maintain signal when acting as a DAC?  I'm lost.
 
Edit - Was that a real question or rhetorical?  Otherwise you need a punctuation mark, lol.  I guess they are (two rather sizable chunky) ferrite 'beads'.  Makes sense.  Probably the nicest USB cable I have in that case.

From the picture I instantly recognized the shape of the usb port, and isin't it mimi-B standard?

 

[Choochoo]

It is a standard mini B USB cable (with ferrite pods). You can of course use your own mini-B USB cable with HM-602.
