Expected TI shipping - Page 25 - The Unofficial Access Virus & Virus TI Forum

I just called Mike Carrolll. He told me they hope it will be released in March but it will effectly (I think he means surely...) be out in April!
They?re working hard on the last beta-tests.

Hmmm... I?m wondering if I should cancel my preorder.

Maybe I?ll stop by at Access - they?re just a city away from me - and have a little chat with them....

Regards

Don't let the April 29th availability date that some retailers are posting, fool ya. It's still being shipped early March, yet the March shipment is sold out. So the second shipment is April 29th. They can't advertise the availability date in March if they're sold out.

EnjoyRC...How can you be so sure?

I have a good friend that works at Sweetwater. We discussed in depth the normal marketing practices of these online retailers. And the fact that just recently, via email, Access verified that they're still on track with shipping them within the first couple of weeks of March ... uh er um... 2005.

(had to add the year)

All BS and Speculation.

I have several emails from access saying 'Yes, we are still on schedule for the December shipping date

Dont believe ANYTHING especially from a disties who knows jack shit. Ive been quoted about 100 different dates from Turnkey (official UK supplier of access products) and a whole load of other disties.

NO ONE KNOWS OR WILL KNOW TILL IT ACTUALLY SAYS 'VIRUS-TI SHIPPING' ON THE ACCESS WEBSITE.... or marc/ben say so here

I will be so glad when I can end this post that I started by saying "I just recieved my Virus TI desktop and it is sick". I will be so glad!

Well, I got bored tonight before work and figured the day the Virus should be shipping according to the "45 days" announced in the NAMM video.
As of now, 38 days have passed since 23 Jan (the end of the NAMM show). So that means the virus should be shipping a week from today. Does anybody actually think Access is on track? Or do you think it will be shipping in a week? Hmmmmmm. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I was wondering the same. Again all the dates on those website making me paranoid too, It will be nice if access release TI within next week. What is the problem concerning the delay? Implementing the AU or making more wavetables?

latest rumor I've heard from a shop down here:

Europe release date is on track, north america is gonna be delayed for quite a while.

Dunno if its gonna be true, but we will see
