Strange. Mine is a little light.
9.0lbs.... Perhaps I got unshagged?.. reverse shagged?.. I shagged them?.. or they replaced the normal junk with 9lbs of awesomeness.
Either way, I'm excited.

Can all you (lucky?) east coasters post pictures for us West coasters. We need to wait several more days (seems like forever) to get our loot.
30 Cables for less than 30 Bucks - happy
The greatest $29.99 Mystery Box - not so much
The Infamous THINGFLING Mystery Box- $9.99 (x6) - even less
The Monster Cable Mystery Box - not bad
Leftover Mystery Box Part III - Happy
Wireless Presenter and Laser Pointer (no Mystery here) - can't beat the price
12 TRUVIEW UV3 – SUNGLASSES - Just in tome for summer
Leftover Mystery Box Part IV - Can't beat the anticipation for MB
Wireless Optical Mouse with Built-In Numeric Keypad (x2) - Why not? I already missed the AMB today

I got one of those from the 9.99 MB... I'm using those right now  Pretty accurate... though the outdoor sensor I got had a crack in the shell... It's working right now, I hope it keeps on working though This is the product code from GE - GE5805WS1

Mine finally shipped and shows Thursday delivery. It's 22.1 pounds but also has my universal remote, altec lansing speakers and a monster battery charger included. We'll see....
If the only opinions that matter are everyone else's, do you ever really have one of your own?
