Hi Alan,

thanks for your reply!
  ,

  the TFS2 has been under development for ( i think ) about 2 1/2 years now.
"next couple of days"
  seems optimistic, and i hope they are really telling the truth now. i
guess we'll know over the "next couple of days"....

Me too! Right now I'm quite optimistic, as I got a fast response on my
second email - that's what Craig wrote:

   "[...] we will be shipping within days, but there's a

  little catch, that is, there will be a 120 day money back gaurantee
because

  we'll need some more time to put the first intellivibe modules together

  (x-plane, ms flight sim, falcon 4, quake 3, no limits coaster) as well as
an

  'official' audiosense library, as well as thickening up the owner's manual
y

  way of PDF file).

  But if you are OK with that, it'll all be a go very, very soon. [...]"


  not that i dislike the product. its predecessor has killer reviews, and i
have to believe the TFS2 is a marked improvement. i really want 2, but i
can't buy them right now.


Do you have any links to reviews at hand?? Else I'll also try a search with
Google.


  i, like you, just wish the company demonstrated a more solid impression of
their viability. their updates do not exist, you can't purchase from the
site - basically tall on promise, and short on goods.


That's in fact true! But you never know what's going on behind the scenes -
maybe funding problems or a major bug... so much can go wrong :P

Let's hope that Craig's message was right and that it will really be
available soon!

Should I get to hear any news, I will post them to this group!

Cheers,


Marc










  for the moment, i'm giving Craig the benefit of the doubt.

    Hello,

    I am glad to tell you that after sending an Email to their company head,
I
    got an answer just a few hours later. They will ship the TFS2 within the
    next couple of days. A "driver" for Falcon is on the way - means, the
TFS2
    will react on many situations within the sim.

    Is there any other person within the group that wants to get this
item????

    Once I ordered and received mine, I will post a review.

    Cheers,

    Marc
