Mark me down as one who... thinks that EDIG will get no labeling of any kind, any where, on anything that Gateway sells. That is the nature of oem business. The seller wants branding...period. If I was Waitt, I would not want it. Just my take...

It was a "fact" - however, it turned out that the poster, who later apologized, was mistaken, as was I for relying on a mistake. Unlike others here, I (and those with more than situational ethics) admit mistakes and NEVER falsely post for the purpose of misleading people or attempting to put the company or its shareholders in bad light. I hold no malice for any purchases (or sales for that matter) I (that's right I) made. IMO others are overcome by anger for decisions that made in the past.

owd3 ...

Plus, does anyone wonder why this is a rumor at this point? Surely someone has one at this point, right? A mean Niz stated they were going to be in stores last week, right? Can't someone just turn theirs on and see? I mean was Niz wrong about what he claimed as "fact"?

I suppose you won`t believe this, but do you have any better answer ??

Thank you for your e-mail, XXXX. We transfered the technology to the Asian OEM weeks ago. The timing of retail deliveries is in the hands of the Asian original equipment manufacturer, Hitachi (the supplier of the 1.8'' drive) and Gateway.

Or this, either ...

Part of the delay was due to Hitachi not being able to supply the HDD as needed.

Just imagine how much promotion our little players will receive once Gateway starts supplying their retail outlets !! You do think that the market for their players will continue far beyond the current holiday shopping season, don`t you ??
