Hyperion Entertainment Q&A Chat Log

My, my... what a lot of bickering. :-)

From a personal perspective, this is about as good as I could have hoped for.
Apart from web/e-mail/mp3-playing, my main use of my A1 is HD-Rec. An update with JIT should make this programme work much better. We'll soon see.
(JIT is already in MOS and my 600mHz peg runs HD-Rec much faster than my 800mHz A1. Unfortunately it also crashes constantly. On the A1 it is very stable.)

Shame there's no hardware to sell to release it properly but we all more or less knew that anyway.

Didn't we, Joanna? ;-)

@Joanna:

Why did Hyperion bother making an Irc-sessiion if they had nothing impoetant to say in first place?

That depends on what you consider important.
As I said, for me update 4 is of far more immediate concern than an official release, since I probably won't be buying it anyway.

Ok, having update-4 sometime soon is a good thing, but IMHO it does not justify a 'press confrence' like approach.

Press conference?
I think you might be getting a teency wee bitty carried away there.

A Q+A session attended mainly by people who already paid for OS4 does not equal a press conference, IMO.

And just for the record, I didn't actually attend the IRC session as my cynical side was telling me they'd only be announcing a delay due to lack of hardware.

Then I read the transcript and realised I'll be getting JIT pretty soon.
That changed my outlook completely.
