Echo Beta Roll Out

[adam1991]

yours shipped?

still awaiting that Google checkout email...

[barnabas1969]

I got mine a week or two ago. I never got a shipping confirmation, but the unit arrived USPS Priority Mail very soon after I paid. I was surprised at how fast it arrived.

Mine is to arrive tomorrow FedEx, hope i don't have to sign for it as I wont be at home.

Well I found out that mine shipped on 10/31, but it is coming to NC via fedex ground and is not expected to be here until 11/7

So everyone knows, the tracking email came to the email account we have for my wife's nexus 7 (the google checkout account) and not to the email account that I am signed up with Ceton. The tracking info also says nothing about Ceton, just that something is shipping to me but it is coming from WA so I assume it is the Echo.

Oops so you're in the dog house?

Oops so you're in the dog house?

Not too much, but she was excited because she thought someone was shipping something to her (and her birthday is in a couple of weeks). It is kind of for her since she wants an extender in the bedroom. (wow that does not sound quite right.... ) They are just using the google account information which is in her name and uses her email address.

I think it is odd that they use fedex ground for some people, and express mail for others. 9 days to get something, especially a beta test item that needs to be evaluated for a launch just seems weird. Perhaps they already know all they need to know in the beta and now are just fulfilling their committment to me, but saving as much money as possible. Hopefully that means that the Echo is now solid and ready to launch. I still don't have access to their forum pages, even though we were originally told that we would get it once our unit was shipped.

Got initial "U have been accepted to beta" then got few update emails but have yet to receive any invoices. I did get the "newegg preorder email" from them. Wonder which one would be faster newegg delivery or beta participation..

I also seemed to have lost access to the forums on ceton site.

If anyone from ceton keeps track here please PM or email me

Same here. I'm a little confused. According to the last beta update email, all invoices were to be emailed by Friday (yesterday). I've not gotten an invoice, nor any update emails. I realize someone in the beta program will be the last but I'd just like to know if there will be any more beta units to be sent. I could preorder one, but I really don't need two and the beta program would put one in my hands quicker seeing how my HP unit is on the verge of crapping out.

I know we are shipping units out nearly everyday. It is a whole bunch of different logistics issues that the units weren't out last week and we are doing our best to get them out asap. If you have received your echo and still don't have access to the Ceton forums email beta (at) cetoncorp.com

I am out of the city until Wednesday but others are there reading the incoming mails.

[mldenison]

Thanks for the update, Motz. BTW, the Companion IOS update works great even though I had to buy a new iPad Touch to use it :>) No more connection issues!

[jeonunh]

I can finally join the ranks of those that received an invoice. I just hope it arrives by next weekend!

[Embiggens]

Just got my invoice also, a pleasant surprise toward the end of a long Saturday. Thanks Ceton for putting in some weekend hours on this, very much appreciated.

[kalex]

Yep got my invoice today and paid for it. Hopefully I can get it soon

[BangBang]

per facebook notice:

All Ceton Echo beta invoices now sent! If you were in the beta and didn't receive one, pls check junk mail for email from Google Wallet

[Deuce911]

Well if that is true then I have an issue, I received an email on the 25th that said I should get the Google Wallet Invoice email by Friday and now they say they are all sent out but still nothing.

Guess the pre-order is the only way I will be getting one.

[mldenison]

Same here. I got a beta email last month and never got an invoice.

[sccrgoalie1]

Same here

[Motz]

If anyone was supposed to be in the beta and didn't get an invoice email beta (at) cetoncorp.com. it is the weekend so it might take a day or two and I'm out of the city till wednesday

[Deuce911]

The email has been sent to you as requested, thanks for looking into this item.
