http://dynamism.com/sl-c3000/pricing.shtml
I picked one of these up, and it was mint in the package and has been working like a treat. I got a spare world voltage AC adaptor and everything came to $400 including shipping, which took _two days_ to get to me. They were very good to me. It even got stopped at the border and I got a couple of phone calls, but it was cleared up in no time flat and rushed to me. Fedex even redirected the shipment to my work so I could get it sooner. =) |

I just got my Seagate 8 Gb CF disk today (what a marvel!) and it occurred to me, if it was the same inside, if maybe one could buy a C1000, stick a hf hard disk into it, and get a C3000 out of it? Or am I just dreaming? |

Or am I just dreaming? This is absolutely impossible. The C1000 is missing critical hardware for the internal storage. Other than that, I am told that the C1000 and 3100 are about the same inside. --+ Snappy: There's a better deal out there? Oh well.. at least I got mine quickly, and there is a nice warranty. =) |

I got my Akita for around $346 incl shipping and usb host connector. Granted, I reused the EA-70 charger from my Collie. In any case, multi-voltage chargers is like MacDonalds around where I live ... you cannot fail to get one! |

I can upgrade your C1000 to a C3200 for US$400 if you wish. 1) take in C1000 2) buy C3200 3) send back C3200 as upgrade unit 4) sell C1000 5) profit! |

QUOTE(Kaneda @ Jun 19 2006, 09:42 PM) Kaneda, How long did it take for you to get your C1000 and how was the service from geekstuff4u? I assume they also offer a 1 year warranty if you ship the unit back to them, don't they? I'm about to pull the trigger on a C1000 either from geekstuff4u or Conics. Conics is a bit higher, but the price includes a usb host cable and 2nd North American power adapter. Thanks |
