#274160 - 12/01/2006 14:51 Anbody want a dead karma
tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1919 Loc: London	My Karma has started getting stuck every time I start it up, sometimes the hard jolt works others it don't. I've bought a Cowon I Audio 60Gb to replace it, if anyone in the UK wants my Karma gear pleae let me know, I've got 2 mains cradles and 1 otherwise in very good nick Karma

pca old hand Registered: 20/07/1999 Posts: 1102 Loc: UK	Quote: Bearded foreign fellow on the underground with a big backpack? Hmmm... Don't worry. You just need to make sure the phrase "This is perfectly safe" is written on the backpack in large yellow arabic characters, so it's easily visible I still want to get some T-shirts printed up with the phrase "Random Arabic Characters" written on them in Arabic, and sell them to people going to the airport... pca Edited by pca (13/01/2006 09:44) _________________________ Experience is what you get just after it would have helped...

I guess it would be even worse with my Mk I install in the old military radio bag/case... (as seen with my Land Rover "outstall" at the Amersfort meet... uh... 2003?)

Waterman981 old hand Registered: 14/02/2002 Posts: 804 Loc: Salt Lake City, UT	Tanstaafl had(has?) a mounting for his empeg on his bike.

julf veteran Registered: 01/10/2001 Posts: 1307 Loc: Amsterdam, The Netherlands	Hmm... Let's see what happens when I try to bring something similar (but even more extreme) to the Cambridge meet. Maybe I can getr the award for "best install in Guantanamo Bay"?

tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1919 Loc: London	Just loaded up my iAUDIO, it truncates file names, can't upload playlists (you build the playlist off it's internal HD) and worst of all the little bleeder won't play my ogg files. Arrgh!

altman carpal tunnel Registered: 19/05/1999 Posts: 3457 Loc: Palo Alto, CA	If you want, I can give you a 1.8" HDD as used in the Karma... we have quite a few here! They were also used on the Sapphire project, so these have never seen the inside of a Karma. Obviously, I can't guarantee they'd work forever, but it sounds like it might be less pain than an iAudio player If you're interested, PM me. Hugo
