iposthere Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 WOW. Still no word from Pioneer. What jerks . They should do some type of weekly update to at least Pretend like they care. also, is Al-Eds still in contact with them? or are they just waiting for Pioneer to contact them when it is fixed? The squeaky wheel gets the grease Quote Link to post Share on other sites
superjet Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Um, did you read the official statement from just 2 weeks ago? When there is a fix/upgrade, they will let you know. Have some patience people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
offroaderf150 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 yeah i know huh, i wanted to call al and eds today to see if they have any word, but i resisted, knowing that we would probably know here before anyone else. probably wont be anything till mid/late july oh well, at least i have my pre ordered.

HiFiSi Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I wouldn't bother contacting al&ed's. Every time they have gotten any kind of info from Pioneer about this, they've sent an email out to all the people who bought a unit from them. Then it gets posted on here pretty soon afterwards.

leeb18c Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I was told pioneer talked to al & ed last Thursday but did not give any ETA. This is when I called to cancel my f90bt order early Monday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have some patience people. I'm assuming you mean the Official Statement, which is what this thread is...and what I'm responding to....so yes....i have read it. And i "did" have patients, but that was about a month ago. For all we know they could have not fixed any of the problems yet. If that was true I would give up on waiting and buy a different unit. But, if they have fixed the majority of the problems and are fine tuning the rest i would wait. Not sure why you would rather be kept in the dark. I'm not asking for minute by minute updates. Are you telling me Pioneer can't afford to have someone spend 15minutes posting a weekly update? I'm pretty sure the sales they have lost so far, due to poor communication, would have paid for minute by minute updates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HiFiSi Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Yes, they can. Because if they had put out regular progress updates, some of the people who opted to not wait and buy another brand might have decided to wait for them to fix it instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vipersd1 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Yes, they can.

I'm about to be one of them. The only thing holding me to the 900BT is the custom bezel being made for the car so I can do a double din. If they have not started it yet, I'm going to the DNX8120. I don't mind waiting for a good product, but waiting an indefinite amount of time is unexceptable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phlame217 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Well i dont know how pioneer functions, but they seem to always have a lot on their hands and so it may be a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vetters77 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Maybe it's because I call so damn often but, my audio dealer is saying he should have the update in hand in "days." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MadFlava Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Yes, they can. Because if they had put out regular progress updates, some of the people who opted to not wait and buy another brand might have decided to wait for them to fix it instead. Or return their unit. I liked the BT90 but I only have a 30 day return window and I dont want to be sitting here a couple of months down the road wishing there was an update. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
laalves Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 I'm one of the quitters too. Cancelled my order and went for a Clarion MAX983HD. I could have waited if only they would commit with adate and a list of fixes included. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sryan31 Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 I canceled my order for the 90BT and accessories. I may wait to see how the fix for the unit works out or depending on how long it takes them go with another BT unit. I am bummed, this looked like a rock solid deck.

JPigzz Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 i am also waiting for a date and list of fixes. I will probably be ordering within a week so I have something in time for my next show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
