My USB phone was defective. Sadness. The base lost comms with the handset then shutdown completely (wouldn't even power on). Fortunately, Linksys still has it as under warranty!

I ordered the 10.00 mb x 3. I got the same standard packages as everyone else. I was very pleased and excited to open the box and hope to use most of the items. Thanks TF! I'm sure I'll be ordereing again!

I haven't gotten my $31.99 MB that I ordered back on the 10th nor the $10 MB that I ordered on the 12th. I think I've been more than patient waiting for these packages. If they aren't here today I'm demanding a refund!

My 3 are scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Finally got my MB today. It was quite an adventure just getting it. Like many others, it had been scheduled to arrive last Thursday and then without warning pushed back to Saturday. No problem.
As I was having it shipped to my PO Box, I went to check the status late Saturday afternoon to see if it had arrived. Fedex tracking said "Delivery Exception: Additional Information required from recipient" So I call 1-800-GO-FEDEX and am informed that they don't deliver to PO Boxes. Odd that they figure this out after they already shipped the package from New Jersey to Tennessee. As I can see the Nashville FedEx hub from my rooftop, I asked if they'd happen to still be open, and was told "Yes, they're open until 6pm on Saturday." Great! No problem.
So I print out the tracking information and drive over to the Nashville hub. I'm informed by the security guard that no one is there except herself and a few truck drivers. I told her what I was told over the phone. She asked if I had called the 800 #, adding that they lie. Anyway I should come back bright and early Monday morning and I could get my MB. No problem.
So at about 6:45am Monday, I return to the Nashville Hub, speak to another security guard who had no clue where customer service was, but had me sign in and get a vehicle pass and pointed to a building up the hill. I enter at the first door I find, wander a few hallways until I find some humans. Then get escorted through part of their vast facility to a small office where another clerk enters my tracking number and informs me that my package isn't there, but rather at their location in Metro Center. No problem.
Get to Metro Center around 7:30am and locate the FedEx facility which doesn't open until 8:30. Drive home beginning to wonder how much I've spent in gas so far on this wild goose chase. Return an hour later and am told the package is not there!! I found the FedEx Express facility, I needed FedEx Home Delivery, and was given vague instructions on how to get there, but found it without too much difficulty. Problem: They're closed on Monday!
So finally this morning, I made my 5th! visit to a FedEx facility and after about a 10 minute wait, I finally was able to sign for my MB and go home victorious but aggravated. The box itself was a little anti-climactic as I'd read the spoilers getting more or less what everyone else got (HDTV cables, shower radio, flashlights, antenna extender, and the Linksys dual mode phone.) Didn't get the lighted USB cable, but got a headset to go with the cordless phone.
So, although I don't have a whole lot of use for what I got, it was worthwhile, and have a few gifts for others, and was well worth the purchase price. I just pray that next time the Royal Court will ship using USPS or Fedex Smartpost rather than Fedex Ground. But even if that mixup happens again, at least I'll know how to avoid greatly increasing my carbon footprint.

But even if that mixup happens again, at least I'll know how to avoid greatly increasing my carbon footprint. I have no mail delivered to my house. We are to small of a town. So when I order I just use my physical addy. So far no problems. If i know that what I am getting might be hurt by the rain I leave a note on my door asking the driver to take it to the post office for me, but I have a super cool postmaster. I don't know if this will help you any or not. Just my imput.

Everything looks great, the cables were snatched up immediately, the shower radio and flashlights have been claimed, and the antemma and phone are earmarked.

My first MB that I had purchased from TF. Got to say I'm pretty happy with what I got but not alot I have use for. Linksys iPhone Linksys Antenna Extender Two Philips 3ft Coaxial Cables Philips 12ft Component cables. Philips 6ft HDMI/DVI Conversion Cable Philips 12ft DVI Cable The Emerson Flashlights Shower Radio I'd say I got my money's worth. If anyone is wanting to trade, I'm more than willing to. Let me know! Thanks TF!

I finally got my box last night. I got Family Health CD Rom's, the lighted USB cable (this looks like it's going to be more annoying than useful), CD case, heart rate pedometer, the linksys yahoo phone and the Phillips noise canceling headphones. After the long, long wait, I'm happy with what I got. Especially with the heart rate monitor/pedometer. I just started running again and love this little item.
