I just noticed that the upgrade is "currently unavailable". None of the guys are around the office right now that can update the quantity available. This does not mean out of stock. What I'm saying is, go ahead and place your order anyway as it's just an adjustment in the system that should be done tomorrow. Your order will be processed anyway.[  ] Tim Artz Neuros Customer Support

I was thinking of that, too, but really you're right when you say this: quote: Originally posted by kronin
It would be easier if the firmware backed the 128 MB flash up into a directory. Plus it would fix the problem where even if your 128 MB flash is only half full, the backup is still 128 MB. It would be more complicated from a firmware standpoint, though, as it wouldn't be able to do a bit-for-bit copy.
Also any non-music files would need to be moved over. Can't forget those. -- 'I switched to Vorbis and saved a bunch on my hard-disk space!'

What's the difference between a "Gamma unit" and a regular unit?

OK. I would send my backpack in, but I don't have one (only a 128MB, that is). Can I buy a 20GB backpack at the online store and have the upgrade done on it, or do I have to send the brain along with it? Can I send just my brain in and have it paired with a backpack there? Should I just wait? What do I do???!!
Thanks,
damion

Working under the assumption that you will be without your Neuros for a longer period of time if you buy the HD now and upgrade later, you probably should just wait for the 2.0 backpack, which won't be long now.

Not to be a problem child, but I seem to remember that the upgrade was supposed to be 40GB and USB 2.0. Are these units 40GB?

Where did you hear that the upgrade was going to be 40 GB? I don't remember ever hearing that. That said, these units are 20 GB, not 40 GB.

Kronin is correct, but I know soon we are going to have larger hard drive options.

When I purchased (April 2003), I seem to remember that they said that there was a free upgrade to 40GB and USB 2.0. I was just wondering if this was that.

There was never official mention of a 40 gB upgrade, free or not. Where did you get this from?
(Edit: clarification)

Nope, I was wrong. This is what the site looked like the day I ordered (make sure you grab the whole thing, the forum is splitting it into two pieces): http://neurosaudio.com/PRMan

Damn, 4 weeks? I can't live without it that long. I'll just wait until it goes public and pay the extra price or whatever.

Will the official public unit cost more than the $63?

Well that depends what you mean, the $63 is just for the upgrade (of existing USB 1.1 backpacks) that doesn't count the cost of a new hard drive and/or battery (like if you were going to buy a new USB 2.0 20GB backpack).
