Neuros N3

[lspalmer]

Just checking in to see if there are any new developments in the N3 department, as it is now the first quarter of 07.  I've had my N2 for 2+ years now, and absolutely love it, but I'm seriously thinking of upgrading. I'm looking at the new Wolverine Data 120GB ESP as a replacement, which will also help out with on the go photo storage.  None of the others will do as much, and size has never been my main issue anyways, or else I would not have bought the N2.   I keep waiting for updated news for the N3, and it seems to keep getting pushed back, and pushed back, and pushed back.  What's the deal with the N3, can someone please tell me?  It seems that Neuros Tech can only focus on one project at a time, and right now it's the OSD.  That's fine, but please don't keep stringing us along.  I need a bigger storage volume than my 80GB will provide.  All info will be appreciated, as I should have the tax refund soon, and will be making my decision.  :-)  Thanks.

On January 4 one of the sites moderators, the Inernet Chef,  stated: "Well as the looks of it, we have no plans right now for the Neuros III, we are concentrating on the Neuros OSD. "

...Google "minty mp3"...

Wow... now I know what I'm doing this weekend.  Maybe this will dull the pain I feel over my years-long N3-deprivation.

Also, on the HDD issue... as long as it's in a separate cradle, who cares about the weight?  If you're carrying it in your pocket, don't take the cradle.  If you're on a road-trip or dj-ing, then who cares about a couple of lbs of weight??  ...and if you really do care, then don't use it!  Even a 2.5" HDD isn't enough to hold all the tunes in my stash or those of most of my friends.

Joe, please hurry...

If you don't care about the weight, why mess with a dedicated audio player at all?  Bring a laptop computer, maybe one with dual hard disks, or an N2, or get one of those 3.5" media player HD enclosures and control it with a PDA.  You can even put a 750 GB SATA drive in some of those, I think.
