Sorry to hear that. I'm very satisfied with mine, but as with all else, YMMV. Did you find good replacements? I'd love to know what you ended up with, and possibly try them next.
Cheers!

Re: Shure SRH440 review

What an appallingly misleading review!

I have had a pair of these Shure SRH440 for the last 3-4 months and I have to say I'm not particularly impressed with them. They have, of course, had plenty of hours burn in, but after all that they are now a bit too (painfully) high in the bass end. They also have to be one of the most uncomfortable headphones I've worn. The plastic pads really start to irritate against the skin after a few minutes. Even the review here is appallingly deceptive. The pads are NOT leathery, they are definitely fake leather PVC and it's terrible! Furthermore, it's easy to accidentally pull them off, and it's really fiddly trying to get them back on again.

Reviews and forums were also making great play about how well these headphones isolate. Well, they do not. I wanted good isolation headphones for tracking during recording, but with these the leakage is appalling.

I did plenty of internet research before I bought these online, and I can honestly say, I feel misled by the highly rated reviews, and thoroughly ripped off.

Overpriced and overrated.

Good luck @HectorHenry. Its fairly straightforward, but might take a couple of tries.

Sorry to hear that, I did have that problem on the OEM firmware, but after moving to DD-WRT those issues were resolved. I did adjust power settings (reduced them), but not sure if that is the solution.

Wish I had the same luck. DD-WRT + WNDR3700v2 = Your wireless AP (both 2.4 and 5.0GHz) "disappear" every 6-12 hours.

I'm on the latest firmware with the recommended wireless settings per the community and it's done this since I bought it, 5 days ago.

Ashkay,

Old teacher of yours at Orrville High School. Would love to catch up with you. You last contacted me in '03. You certainly have made something of yourself. I hope you have time to respond.

actually.. i edited the yml file just fine... but now i'm getting an error when i go to /signup or /login that says undefined method `set_facebook_session' for #<sessionscontroller:0x10350a790>

which came from the code from the tutorial: And add the following to ApplicationController

layout 'index'
before_filter :set_facebook_session
helper_method :facebook_session</sessionscontroller:0x10350a790>

Re: AMTU and UBUNTU

LeTenebreux — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:57:02 -0000

So what are we to make of the documentation that says that the AMTU requires Java 1.4.2? I'm looking to deploy this on an ubuntu server and bridge Amazon to an ERP system.

Thank you very much. The tutorial I was following does have the configuration of this file a few steps after trying to run it or generate the receiver page, but without this those fail. This was really helpful

Re: E-Commerce Platforms.

Noname — Tue, 26 May 2009 01:24:49 -0000

Love the Viaweb reference. Any chance you can expand this into a set of Ecommerce platform timeline views. 1990-2000-2010. Give us some insight into what came before and paved the way. If your feeling adventurous maybe you can stick out your neck and predict what the future holds. 2020. Can you help me understand what are the big pain points that the 2010 e-commerce platforms are going to solve? Focus on SMB, multichannel, pureplay, global brands.

Thanks for sharing and I look forward to reading your regular posts.
