I talked with Mike (MechEng3) last night and he still hasn't received the cubes.
Now I know why - the tracking info says that they're still stuck in US Customs in New York!
I second Mike's suggestion: In the future, use TNT or DHL shipping. Yeah, it costs more, but they get stuff here *fast*, and never seem to have any customs delays.
Guess the customers here in the US will have to wait a while longer yet...

Why arent they going through....could they be doing test on them?....what if they damage them? Who is going to take responsibility?

I will have no shame in sending someone in NY an invoice for an unreal amount of money for the experimental optic devices. I fugure for the gov't to get something like these they should be priced around 25 to 35K each unit. I will hope that they arrive on Friday,11/30. Lets just hope that if they opened them and discovered that they didn't know what they were, they just re-taped the package and sent them on their way. All of this could have been avoided. I will see what's in the box in the evening when I get in......for better or worse.

I AM REALLY EXCITED NOW.... Mike please post pictures when you get them!
OK It has arrived ! It seems that some one has seen them from when they were packaged by Bridge. Looks like all is well. No harm done. I picked out the 3 I have paid for and all the rest of them are being boxed up right now,by my better half, and will ship out in the morning on the way in to work. USPS Priority mail. Now we can relax as they will be out to you soon. I will post pix later on Saturday when I get time to play. I will check them out when I get in. I have to leave for now, but will return to active laser work later saturday. Just wanted to let everyone know that they are going out in the morning. Thanks Bridge. Gotta go back out...service is needed. I have wrapped each cube for safety in shipping. They will arrive in a safe , large well padded package.
Thanks again Bridge !
