alright now this is ridiculous. liero has your sdl shipped yet? I mean damn, it ain't like this is the wii we ordered. This product is what, a couple yrs old. On top of that, its from Datel from whom is supposed to be a disliked and not #1 on my top 5 list of companies who make products that are unsupported by the host company consoles. how long does it normally take for things to restock?

Na, man... my order hasn't been shipped yet. :P Even after taking with a rep through Tech Support, they don't have any idea when it'll be re-stocked. But I do know that it will be restocked and that I can cancel my order at anytime. :/ I'd rather just wait and see than not order anything if ya feel me... it's still a sucky situation.

is there something wrong with codejunkies.com? I think either the server is down or they are upgrading something.

YEAH!!! GOOD NEWS! I contacted sales again, and it turns out they just got more stock in... my media launcher (with no SD card) shows that it is scheduled to be shipped out today! :)
So for whoever else is waiting for theirs, you should be getting soon too. :D

that's great! but how long did you stay on the line and what time did you call? Everytime I call them I'm on the line for more than like 15 mins. hey liero can you check the status of your order to see if it shipped yet? The way I ordered it I can't check mine.

Well, I contacted them through e-mail (sales@codejunkies.com), and they said that my order has been shipped today... and on my account at codejunkies it does say that it's shipped (they even gave me a tracking number at USPS).

EDIT: wait i did do that except i put @dateldesign.com! i didn't see the codejunkies 1.

ok guys i know you are all happy and stuff (hell im a little happy myself XD) but, we still got many things to do before we can use it. Such as grabbing some sd cards and some mini-dvds. Well I have tons 1 gb sd cards lying around the house that were used for cameras that I could use. I don't know about you guys but as usual for me, the disc media that everyone says is the best is never sold in any of my local retail stores which means I gotta go for the 2nd best which they usually have.
EDIT: Time out. It just occurred to me. If I have to (and I most likely will) adjust the pot, won't that void the warranty seeing as I have to open the cube to do it?

I already have like a 256MB SD card that'll hopefully work but SD cards nowadays go pretty cheap on eBay... and for adjusting the pot yeah, the warrenty will be screwed. But I've seen Gamecubes go on eBay for as cheap as $30. And I'm already expecting to grab a gamebit off the net (amazon/eBay).
But for pot adjusting, I don't think it'll be that hard. I've seen youtube videos of dissembly/assembly off the gamecube, and I even found a great "repair guide" off of http://gctracker.mine.nu:800/. It's a .exe file (no virus, I've scanned it) and I've uploaded it to my website for y'all.

the only thing i prob wouldn't be able to grab is the multimeter. i think if anything i'll just turn it a bit. i'm really not good and deathly afraid with anything that requires opening the console (I mean for my ps2 i have swap magic for my bro's ds, i got the r4, and for my psp slim i have the pandora battery set) and I wish I knew someone who knows how who is willing to do it for me but unfortunately i'm the only one who cares about the cube where i live. every1 else is ps2, 360, and ps3. If someone didn't mind comin to richmond, va i'd ask. that's another thing, ppl in this city are not tech savy @ all, at least in the part of the county i live in. Man...since this pot adjustment is required I guess i'm screwed huh? :(

well, i've heard that some ppl don't even need to adjust it. :/ so there's a chance that you won't have to... and if you do, opening up the cube doesn't look that hard--i'm soft-modding mine since I'm totally freaked out about sodering and whatnot for a modchip. what we're doing seems a LOT easier.

can anyone here make a video/or explain how to do the POT adjust like how much counter clock-wise?because i heard you have to turn it 1/8 of a fraction but.....i always thought it's too much because also on another site(the one POT adjustment tutorial posted here)says a one minite turn can mean 100s drop/gain which means 1/8(of what i think)is too much
