Cute kids.

We only had a few tricker treaters this year.

Fudge that awesome.

Best hing about iphone is the 3rd party support

well Android has SO many different hardware options, all make for compatibility a bitch.

Iphone is an iphone.. no different.

makes want to get rid of my android phone and go for an iphone (again).

I'm not giving up on Android. The new version (Ice Cream Sandwich) is coming out and it will really standardize the software between tabs and phones. I think that will really help.

Though, I think I'm going to grab a tablet and built a mount for it so that I use it as its own stereo. Will jsut have to find a way to get Digital audio out. Ironically, I already know how to do it on an ipad...

It's not the software that's different, it's the hardware. Every phone is different none are the same to some extent.

Have options is a good thing, actually...

Also, I've never heard of "hardware compatibility issues" when it comes to phones; unless you're trying to stick a USB cable into a Firewire port or something along those lines.

Sorry I should have been more specific, in terms of use in the car is where I've ran into compatibility issues. Problem being due to the fact when ran through usb the memory being read is read as two different sources as apposed to a single source

sounds like a software issue

[Julian 641]

Since they are mounted as two different images, it pulls up an error on the Headunit.

[Julian 641]

I've only a few that will mount as a single mass storage device, there is probably work around somewhere..

But sadly most HU's don't cache the music playlist so it takes forever for it to read and recognize.

I put a 320 GB HD on my HU and formatted it as Fat32, and it read it. but took about 5 mins to read and only would read up to only 250 folders/files, but even that took forever especially if they were all foldered.

[Julian 641]

^ that is cleaver!

[Julian 641]

I want to find software mod that allows you to selectively mount a storage location to the point where it would only see the selected one.

[Julian 641]

Over usb

Love the desk Teo.

But whats up with the hard drives being tilted.

I don't know if you can see it, but they are floating in the air attached only with zip ties. Way less vibrations transferred to the case-less noise.

[The enD 467]

just watched the last episode of The Walking Dead, definitely badass.

No kidding. Awesome show.

Yep.

Slowly making the guy more and more of a negative character.

[The enD 467]

Appreciate all the positive feedback.

Great idea and good work on the desk

IMO, keeping the case down would also reduce a bit of the noise, because it's not there at head level.

Adrian I'm really interested in your production of your aeroports, would you be willing to share your mold and how it was produced? this is no way to shove you out of the market but I'd like to produce some for myself.

[Adrian_D 520]

Sorry Julian, I've worked for 2 years on perfecting the molds and technique, I can't give it up

[Julian 641]

Sorry Julian, I've worked for 2 years on perfecting the molds and technique, I can't give it up

I'll send you beer ... shipping would be like a million dollars though.. haha

I have a general idea how you did it, but did you machine the mold?

I was looking for someone to macine me a bell shaped mold, but Didn't know what to make it out of.

Cute kiddo's Sean. The little girl looks excited for all the candy she can get.

The actual machining was the job of the machine shop. I handed drawings and it was their job to figure out how to do it.

What was it made out of? I was considering maybe something out of plastic?

[Julian 641]

like acrylic

[Adrian_D 520]

Sorry, again part of my testing.

[Julian 641]

I'm not looking to fiberglass but just do heat molded PVC.

[Adrian_D 520]

Well, I've never worked with PVC so it's out of my area of knowledge.

[Julian 641]

something of the sorts, but an 8-10" one.

[Godsmack 361]

Julian

What about getting a big block of cork, and shaving it to your shape, and then heating and pressing the pvc over the cork as it softens?

This may not work at all but its an idea.
