Just like most of the others... Here is what I got:
1 Thingfling light up personal fan 1 Xantrex xpower pocket inverter 100 1 Pair of studio headphones, unbranded and yes, broken 1 Altec lansing powered audio xm3120 stereo speakers for use with xm satellite receivers 1 Philips prestigo universal remote - sru9600 1 Altec lansing digital mini theater for ipod imv712
I found it a bit amusing that about 1/2 hour after I posted my previous post, which was a complaint, my email came telling me the tracking info... and I finally moved from processing. And sadly, no I did not get SHAGGED?
Has anyone gotten the big SHAG? I have not read about one... if so, what did ya get?

I'm still waiting for my MB. I did however receive a box of crap from IHTHT.com and I don't know what to do with my stuff! I got 2 Acoustic Research digital optical cables and 2 rf modulators. I have no clue what to do with them!  If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated! Also in the box were 2 car cassette cd adaptors, a tyke light, annd a mod cord plug/jack 50'.

Also in the box were 2 car cassette cd adaptors, a tyke light, annd a mod cord plug/jack 50'. Is this the one that was on the site July 24? I ordered one of those too. I wonder if I'll get the same. I'm not much of an audiophile but aren't those cables for some sort of digital audio output? Were they called something like TOSlink? Is this it? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSLINKThe RF modualtors were probably the kind of thing used to hook up a DVD player to an older TV without RCA jacks. I actually have use for one of those. My old one broke. Car cassette adapters - wow! How many cars are still on the road with cassette players? I did have one or two of these from some old MBs and did manage to sell them for a few bucks at a garage sale. I'm not quite sure what the cord might be. Tyke light? Do you need to put a light on kids?

My IHTHT box showed up today as well. The rundown - USEFUL: Universal 4 in 1 remote - a cheapie, but I needed one and it works RF modulator - mine stopped working a while ago. I can use this to hook a DVD player to an older TV I keep by my treadmill Tyke Light - nice bicycle light - really bright OF NO USE - MAYBE FUTURE GARAGE SALE: 3' optical cable Motorola Razr case Cassette adapter 2 - 50' phone cords with connector
Shipping weight - 4 pounds.
This really wasn't too bad. The remote is probably worth $5, the RF modulator around $10, and the light is maybe $3. So I guess that covers the cost of the box. I figure I got the other five items for the cost of shipping and should be able to actually come out ahead a few bucks on it.
I did like getting a number of smaller items. It reminded me of some of TF's earlier MBs.
Of course, there are still a number of those old, outdated items. But, that's the way it goes. Although I'm not crazy about the haul on this, I just might give IHTHT another shot when a mystery comes up.
Now, here's hoping that TF pulls through!

I got this same box..Just wanted to check the site out . All useless stuff to me, too. I did check out the cable on ebay and a store sells them for 24.95 plus 13 for shipping. I got an ipod case instead of Razr one..which I have a razr phone so that at least could have worked out for me. Just got a long phone cord like the one in the box and it was 11.00. For 18 bucks it was a lot of things, but not anything most people would have a use for.
Live each day as if it is your last because you never know what tomorrow may bring. Sue

My box was similar. Nothing I think I need and a few things I can't identify. Neoprene i-Pod case with arm band and belt clip, DLO Action Jacket - Amazon Reg. $29.99, Sale $15.30. The cassette adapter, RCA AH600 I think I had a cassette in my car 4 or 5 cars ago. - Amazon $5.99. RCA Remote, RCU404. Amazon Reg. $9.78, Sale $8.57. The Digital Optical Cable, Acoustic Research MS280. Amazon Reg $39.99, Sale $13.56 ( What does this connect? ) A black thing in a white box. Might be the thing to connect a DVD player to an older TV? ( Might not be. Don't know. ) I found it by the # on the box. $13.87 http://salestores.com/axrfrfmor1rf.htmlA little box of Power Terminals and Connectors? This is all over the place price wise, anywhere from $3.00 to $73.00. ( I haven't a clue. ) http://www.shopwiki.com/detail/d=EFX_P8RTI4_SCOSCHE_P8RTI4_Ring_Terminals_(8-Gauge_4-Pk)/jumpToFirst=t/ Edited because I can't sleep and decided to price these items.

The Digital Optical Audio Cable is for audio devices, receivers, or TV's that have the optical audio audio out/in ports. You would usually see a red light coming from the ports. It is usually a 5.1 surround sound port that allows you to plug one cable in to transfer all 6 audio channels on one cable. Some computers have them too, it is because light can hold more data than a normal RCA red/white set of audio cables. The black box is exactly what you guessed. If you had a fairly old TV with only a coax cable input for let's say Cable TV or an antenna then you could use this box to plug any device that has the RCA/S-Video ports, i.e. DVD player, VHS, A/V Receiver, etc. Most people would have no use for this, you would have to have a very old TV, even a TV I bought 10 years ago already had RCA inputs. Hope that helps. I just had to reply to this post.

Do you have any idea what the terminal/connector things are? I'm sure it is also something I don't need. Too bad I didn't get the stroller light.

Thanks for everyone's posts! I definately liked my TF MB better, but I'm afraid the lure of MB's, BOC's, and Boxes of Crap will keep me coming back for more! I'm thinking maybe ebay for the other stuff?

I ordered this product on 24th July'08. I did not receive any email regarding product shipping or product itself yet. My ihtht account details show as the order is not attended. I raised a ihtht help ticket, its 4 days over but no response from them yet. Today I added a note in my ticket asking them to cancel the order & return my money back. Don't know what they will do. Do any of you know the contact number for dialing their customer service? I am pretty much unhappy with their service.
Thanks, Naveen.
