As an update, it appears that the powers of this list (or maybe Googles search capabilities) have rectified this issue. WIthin a day of the article I got an email from Aleutia apologising and saying they had seen this article. A machine is on its way (UPS show it as sitting in Auckland waiting customs clearance).<br>
<br> They also upgraded the specs of the machine and say it has a few extra features (e.g. power on USB, which should be handy for powering it up from a USB IR remote).<br><br> If people are interested then I'd be happy to post my thoughts/experience on the machine as a frontend (yell out if so), otherwise assume that Aleutia have tidied this up and followed through and it was a 'snafu' from perhaps a small but growing company.<br>
