RE: Opinions On the MICO A980

The hack menu is still there on the new batch even though they ship as region/macro free.

Remove disk 7,7,select and up pops the menu The region is set to 13 and the macro is set to one (on the second page).

Only problem I`ve seen with the player is that the tarzan collectors edition R2 disk 2 tends to lock up.

RE: Advice Needed - Problems with MICO A980

Go for it. The player seems excellent (if it works) but so far unbeatables customer services is terrible.

If you don`t get satisfaction soon contact Which-On-Line since they gave unbeatable webtrader accreditation. The WOL webtrader forums show that the customer services seem to take more notice when they risk loosing that nice round webtrader logo.

Good Luck!

RE: Advice Needed - Problems with MICO A980

My Mico takes a few seconds to load the disks

As for Tarzan I`ve seen the same problem when leaving the original trailers on the second disk. hope this isn`t a sign of things to come. I`ve played several other disks and they work fine. Maybe just a bug with this disk.

RE: Advice Needed - Problems with MICO A980

Mine works fine. No difficulty with the drive at all. It sounds like you got a duff machine. I remember seeing this problem with the mico on a forum before, where the guy had returned his machine because of a fault with the tray opening mechanism.

Unbeatable promissed him a replacement in june and he was having to wait for this shipment. Unless your ready for another long wait I`d go the refund.

RE: Anyone heard about their MICO A980 yet?

That would explain a lot!

RE: Anyone heard about their MICO A980 yet?

Nope, haven`t heard a thing since the last email from them promising that the players were leaving Hong Kong before the weekend.

Can`t see any point in re-registering to see `your order is being processed`.

I`m sure they`ll get `round to supplying the players some time if they`ve nothing else to do.

RE: Anyone waiting for a mico?

Rang unbeatable again (16.30 GMT Fri)

Suprise, suprise no players!

Due in `some time next week` (sound familiar?)

When pressed they said `probably before wednesday`

When pressed further he suddenly remembered that the flight was due in over the weekend.

Call me a sceptic but I`ll believe them when I see the player.

Anyone waiting for a mico?

Unbeatable now say that they should get the players `sometime towards the end of the week` and ship them ` the beginning of next week`.

I rang them weds lunch time and they didn`t really seem to have any idea when the players will be coming in other than these vague assurances.

I hope this player is worth the wait

RE: Hack needed for the MICO A980

Ordered the Mico mid July. After two weeks I rang unbeatable and they said they were having trouble with their supplier and they would be another two weeks. Then I got an email to say they couldn`t keep up with demand and they wouldn`t get the machines in from Hong Kong until the week beginning the twenty first.

RE: Hack needed for the MICO A980

You can get the Mico at www.unbeatable.co.uk but be prepared to wait, I ordered one a month ago and am still waiting.

Is the Macrovision hack just an on/off setting? One guy on another forum seemed to think there was a 4 digit code.
