There is no MMM. Never was. This is an April fools day joke.

I was just thinking that since there are already official pictures out and the mold has been received by CC (from what I've been told), the release can't be too far away. So right now, I am only assuming that it will be out by the time I mentioned (July/summer). :party:

ETA is about three weeks. Pre-orders will start around April 14th, shipping should start around April 21st.

Mid April is IMO a more accurate date, and I'd rather be surprised with an "early" release than sit around waiting as March comes and goes.

Sorry LOL

LOL... keeping mind this is April 1, I will still accept that the REAL owner of CC is now telling us 2-3 weeks and shipping by the end of the month. (at the latest it seems...)

I had to dig back about 20+ pages to quote myself :lol: :rules:

:whistle:

Dont pat yourself on the back to hard yet.... I'd wait until they actually come thru on this date.

badassrevo 04.01.2008 10:24 AM

The date sounds legit this time. They seem to have all the parts needed to go into production.

No kidding, LOL.... can you say egg on face? :intello:
The rumblings from the CC camp can be tough to figure out but they have been pointing to an April-ish date for a couple months now, and so far it's still looking good for that.

If we are still talking about this a month from now without a MMM in hand, welll.... :whip:

:diablo:





:lol:

Just giving GD a bit of teasing is all.

But seriuosly, at this point with all of the "dates that have come and gone on this one, I am still in "show me" mode with the MMM. I'll believe it when I see it.





And then I'll buy it.:mdr:

I am sure that you can tell that everyone on here is very frustrated with the wait, and all of the wishy washy information that has bee released over the last two to three years, but now it is time to get into the excited mode in anticipation of finally seeing results THIS MONTH!!!!!:yipi::yes::party: Hopefully for CC sakes they will not have any further setbacks pushing this back even further:gasp::oh:. People are already on the edge like junkies waiting for a long awaited fix of heoin or crack. This hobby really is like doing drugs. It is very addictive and the costs can be never ending:surprised::lol::whistle::yes:.

Pdelcast 04.14.2008 04:09 PM

Pre-orders will start around April 21st, and first orders will ship around May 9th.

Sorry guys, as it turns out, I can't get them stuffed into the April production schedule. Other priorities to ship OEM products.

:whistle:

By the way -- we will be giving a 1 week window to end-users where you can place orders at MAP pricing from us before the distributors get to place their orders... :)

Well thats is life I'm afraid - long term viability of CC is supported by things such as the e-firestorm deal. With that comes hard project deadlines - The MM as this stage is optional development... what's another week.

At least my F5 key can get a rest...

Patrick any view on shirts?

Thanks for the dates Patrick. Also thanks for the pre-order deal. I will take advantage of that! Will there be a limit on quantity, as I would like 2?

And if it doesn't, you won't ? lol.

macr0w 04.15.2008 10:16 AM

I wonder how I will be able to take advantage of the map pricing special they are offering?

Will I just have to keep watching the website or what? :neutral:

RBMike 04.15.2008 11:32 AM

Just e-mail them & they will put you on a notification list.

If it doesnt, I will just wait for Mike to carry them. Im sure he will gladly do up the bullet connectors and Deans for his customers :)

lucias 04.15.2008 12:51 PM

I read on another site you could pre-order the 14th. Anybody know anything about this?

Basically that's what Patrick said CC was shooting for and it just didn't quite happen - now it's the 21st.
