How come you wont anser us about sharing the files? We would like to know if we can pay you to share your update with us if there is not any kind of code.

 

 

Probably because you wrote this on the forum instead of a message and he can be legalally prosecuted if he does. :idea::roll:

 

Umm No! I actually pmed him and didnt receive a reply back after he has posted several times and was just curious if he even still had the files. Thanks for your input anyway but the question was directed toward him not you!

 

guys, is it so difficult to be friendly to one and another

Eurotuner29 you should really calm down.

 

To all the people requesting me to upload the file (publicly or by pm) :

2 reasons i'm not providing it :

 

1) The friend who brang it to me took it back with him

 

2) There is no problem hacking with mods a unit we bought...we can forget about the warranty, but it's our problem.

HERE it's something different. It's a major firmware update provided by Pioneer and it's gonna be SOLD by Pioneer. Releasing it for free online is a responsability and a crime i don't wanna mess with.

Even though I understand and agree that Pioneer should give it for free after the really bad unit we had for months, they did not.

With just a few days of patience, if you don't wanna pay for it, i'm sure someone will upload it , but that won't be me.

Well said! I understand completely where you're coming from and would do the exact same thing! Thank you for uploading your video and sharing your experiences with it so we may have some insight as to what it will be like.

Thanks for proving my point.

 

Makes you wonder why someone wouldnt reply to you...

 

Enjoy

 

Again Noobs like you opening their mouths when they shoudn't need to shut the f*** up. I've dealt with plenty of important people on here and have been nothing but cordial as well as helped people out and never had any one talking crap to me. You couldnt just realize you shouldnt have opened your mouth and left it alone. You had to reply and continue right. Its people like you that important people like CMH and Specter left cause he didnt want to deal with the crap your giving me now. Please dont say anything else and leave me alone.

 

Sorry, I'm not the one throwing a temper tantrum. If you didn’t have to get the last word in (while name-calling & cursing at that) you would have already ended it by simply not replying. Or maybe reply in a less offensive manner instead of trying to provoke a response (while claiming to not want one). I'm not the one upset here, and after your jump to the gun could care less if you are.

 

Those guys were already gone (or planned on leaving), and from what I've read mostly because of people trying to mod, breaking their gear, and blaming / getting mad at them. What that has to do with the couple of us that replied that don't feel like listening to your whining is beyond me. I seriously doubt that either of them was whining in public, called on it, and quit because of it. If you didn’t want everyone else reading your comments to iaf_22 and replying to them, then keep it to PM.

 

All this for a French / Europe update for someone in NY...

 

It's really a shame this is the norm on this board apparently. There certainly have been good people that have left. Your tenure or acquaintance to them should not excuse your attitude though. Dealing with important people does not make you one, and I'm glad to hear you managed to be cordial to them at least. But if blaming others that weren’t even around to have anything to do with it makes you feel better, I'm sure it was all my fault. Sleep tight.

Indeed, thanks for the video iaf_22! Sorry for taking up room in your thread.

I called Pioneer right after I saw the link on their site and got this very nice service rep who told me that she would check this out. I finally heard back from her today.

 

here is the quote

 

The introduction price (limited quantities) is $60.00. We should be

receiving these sometime in July (could be August), a specific date has not

been released yet.

 

I am going to call tomorrow and order it for sure.

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 01:15 UTC#336
...a specific date has not

been released yet.

What? If the date of release doesn't exist, how do you plan on ordering it?

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 02:15 UTC#337

She said I could place an order for it.

 

So I am assuming that I will get on line for it and when it shows up they will charge my card and ship the update.

 

Regards,

 

Mark

so wait...is there a way to get the files copied?

i saw the posts above people arguing about it, but im not sure if it can be done

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 14:38 UTC#339

Just got off the phone w pioneer. I called to order the $60 3.0 w/maps. Apparently, there is a free 3.0 upgrade because when she didn't ask for a cc#, I asked her if she wanted it, she said it was free.

 

I told her I wanted the $60 maps/3.0 update. She did some checking and said it was $130 and no other pricing is available. I told her a 'friend' had gotten the information yesterday about the $60 pricing (see previous post) and she asked for the rep named that told him that.

 

A little conflicting information. Anyone get the $60 price??

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 15:31 UTC#340

I called to see if I could order, and could not. According to who I spoke to (USA) they can not order it yet as it is not available, and the only info they have on it shows the $130 pricing.

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 15:34 UTC#341

JasonH - any word from your source?

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 15:47 UTC#342

I'm not too worried about prodding people before it's available. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on the one day you could order it for free from Pioneer or something! :mrgreen:

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 16:33 UTC#343

From Pioneer:

 

Thank you for contacting Pioneer Electronics, Inc.

 

Here is the link on our web site for the CNSD-100FM.

http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/ ... CNSD-100FM

 

I see no mention of the $60 price. I'm not clear where your friend has received his info. or who is offering this price.

At this time there are also no pre-orders with Pioneer. Perhaps a retailer has made this offer.

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 16:40 UTC#344

Just got off the phone with Pioneer and got the update ordered for 60 or 65. Don't remember which. Apparently there is some code that they have to find to give you that price.

 

Corina is the lady I spoke to at Pioneer and told me about the introductory price. When I went to order it at first I was told that the price was 130 and I told the rep about the price I was quoted and she had me wait a minute or two while she confirmed it. Came back and did indeed confirm the discounted price.

Hey i just got off of the phone with Corina also :lol: cowensadence :wink: I did not ask to speak to her.

 

The total price was $65 shipped. I did not have to pay tax.

 

Corina asked me to let everyone know that anybody can help with the order. She also told me that she was givin the impression that introductory price of $60 was because these units were so buggy.

Which number did you call to order it?

Is there any special way we should ask for it since people are reporting being told that it's not available yet?? i.e. any special code?

 

Did she say when it would ship out?

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 17:36 UTC#348

They told me that they do not have a definite ship date. July or August. Hopefully sooner than later.

The tax depends on what state you live in.

 

There is no special code to ask for the discounted price, but tell them if they quote you the 130

Great. What number did you call?

Posted Jul 01, 2009 · 18:06 UTC#350

I called Pioneer also and was told that the update was not available "at this time." She said it would be a few weeks before I could possible order it. What's the deal?
