    While the UPS site still says it's waiting for power of attorney, I also got an email from UPS stating it's due to be delivered tomorrow. I hope so....

    Me too, but it's said that two nights ago and was subsequently changed to no date
    Same here, but the delivery date on the UPS site has been updated from no date, to end of business tomorrow. It gives me hope that in the next couple of hours the status will actually update to in transit or something like that.

    But can you charge them in the microwave like the new iphone?

    I haven't tried that yet as I don't want the fake signatures, that were clearly written by lizard people, to melt away as it is the only evidence that they control all world governments - or something.

    has anyone compared the quality of a FLAC played on the Pono player to say the quality from a PC media player?

    Components man, components. The PONO ads that they are built with quality electronics. Unless you custom built your PC and installed some $$$$ sound card, I am going to say it won't hold a candle to the PONO.

    Thats kind of what i want to know. Are the components that good that you can tell the difference?

    I have played the same FLAC files on both and the sound is much better through the Pono - which I would expect as my computer is not a specialist music player. It is a device for playing Freecell and writing all day what Pono sounds like.

    mine's out for delivery too....supposed to be here between 10am-2pm. Too bad I'm leaving for the airport at 11am and will likely miss it. :-(
    I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

    I can't believe I still havent gotten a shipping notification email from UPS,yet :(
    I thought they were sending them out in the order of when you placed your order? I was one of the first 10-15 people to order the PJ one (think there were only 10 or so gone when I hit submit).
    They are definitely not shipping them out in order received.
    Kinda bummed as I thought I'd be one of the first wave of backers to get one.

    I don't think there's any rhyme or reason to their shipping. I'm also waiting on a shipping notification for a PJ Pono. But my order number is probably towards the bottom since I got a PJ Pono after they sold out and I checked Kickstarter at a time when one came available.

    definitely not shipping in any order. i was one of the first for the PJ ones and am getting frustrated with the delay as I'm sure all of us without shipping confirmation emails are.
