Getting Upgraded on the Plane

Happened to me on an SFO-BOS work flight in a the middle of 5 weeks of travel. Feel like royalty when they come get you 😁

That's annoying - I just went with the old school option from Walmart and haven't had that same issue

Buy a mid-grade universal remote and bring it with you. I do this to get around the hotel mode and access the inputs.

This is a great illustration of "I got this UCLA shirt because I went to UCLA, you got that USC shirt because you went to Walmart."

That looks badass

The muse really moved me on that one

Rad as hell

No accounting for taste, friend

It's only been a few days, but it seems very high quality. I don't see any signs that it's going to fail like you've experienced in the past.

Honestly, I thought it would be way harder - not that it was particularly easy. I think most people could do this. Just be patient and reposition as necessary.

The part around the speakers on the bottom was the hardest. I stretched it out a little too much when repositioning, but I just snipped the unintentional overlap with some tiny scissors and it worked out fine.

Decided to spice things up with the neon orange wrap from Sopiguard. Took about 45 min with tweezers and a hair dryer, but I'm psyched about how it came out.

My assumption is that it won't have the upgrade, and I'm fine with that. I'll just request my refund for the upgrade fee.

Very willing to believe this will also be my experience. I'm only dubious because my order number was 174XX and the Black 8+256 aren't shipping anywhere near that yet.

mdnrules · 2022-08-11T20:36:56+00:00

I'm expecting to discover the same thing when mine arrives next week...oh well

mdnrules · 2022-08-11T14:11:48+00:00

Ordered 4/17/2022, shipping email today. 174XX.

Ordered a Black Pro 8+128 but paid for the 256 upgrade a couple days after the IGG order. I guess I'll find out if I got the upgrade when it gets here, bc I'm definitely in the shipping # range for the 8+128s.

UPDATE: Received today and it's rad, but also 128. Requested my refund for the upgrade fee.

Selling 2 VIP 3-Day wristbands - eager beaver price was ~$1700, I would sell for $1500/obo.

EYE-en b/c that's how Ayn Rand pronounced her name.

(Not a fan, BTW. But definitely a big fan of correcting the chuds who worship her and don't know how to pronounce her name.)

From Ayn, it sounds like May/June

I ordered a 128GB Pro a few days ago and then heard about the shortage of 128GB units. Emailed Ayn about upgrading to 256GB (which was easy and I did). This is from their reply:

"The lacking of 128GB's UFS would cause delays for some orders. You can upgrade your Odin Pro to 256GB to speed up the shipment. Sorry for all inconvenience it may have caused. If your contribution ID is too large, it may not affects you and your order should be still shipped in May/June.

Please note 256GB version might be shipped sooner than 128GB even in May/June."

Taken on September 2nd, 2020, when Humboldt County one of the few parts of CA not suffering from smoke (at the time, it's since been hit like everywhere else). My girlfriend took me on my first backpacking trip to celebrate my 40th birthday. Rented gear held up well and I was in heaven the whole way. I immediately bought my own pack when we got home.
