Default Re: Operation of Raremono / thanko / 1.8" metal mp4 wat

Hi Blaze -

My wife just purchased me this as a birthday gift (I might have dropped a hint or two) from First to you.com . First off I was extremely disappointed on how it arrived. It only had what seemed like the bottom half of the box and was wrapped in a little bit of bubble wrap around the box. The shipping package was a UPS bubble wrap bag. I can't believe they sent it like that. :evil:

Overall it seems very cool (only had it a day). I didn't get any warning to not upgrade the firmware but I haven't tried to yet. I am a little disappointed in the simple clock that it shows and I was kinda hoping there were options as to what style of clock would be on the watch :cry: (kinda wanted that black analog looking one that I have seen on some of the other Epoc watches). Also, it is annoying to have to push a button to check the time :roll: . Another issue I am encountering is the USB charger that connects from the wall to the outlet is really lose and is making it difficult to charge . Finally I am a little puzzled because the useless manual mentions games which I can’t find anywhere in the watch. Perhaps I need to upgrade the firmware for those.

I am thinking about returning it to First to you and purchasing a new one from Chinavasion :twisted: . First it sounds like it is the same unit. Second Chinavasion seems to be selling the 4G version for $85 while my wife bought me this 2G for $199 (they might force us with a 25% restocking fee but I will fight it with the condition I got this in).

Blaze - how was your experience dealing with Chinavasion and did you have any additional customs fees or issues? Are they a real and reputable company? Anything else you can give me a heads up on before I move forward?

Thanks
Ikester
