It arrived yesterday. If you didn't get one and you're disappointed, don't be. I was on my way to the closest Best Buy store in less than-an-hour after I opened that huge box to return it.
It really looked like it was piece-of-junk that was thrown together. Here's what I got:
- A battery that was completely shot (no charge at all and it wouldn't take a charge)
- A battery that was completely missing from the controller
- The GPS cover wasn't completely snapped back into place (which made me think that whoever returned it probably switched out the GPS board before they got their money back)
- The controller wouldn't pair up with the Solo (nor would the controller from my "parts" Solo pair up)
It was so bad that it was laughable. Seriously, I would typically be pissed at something like this but I guess because this was supposed to be back up unit I didn't really care. The only thing that I'm bummed about is that the backpack is really nice. So if you missed out on that "deal" and regret it--don't.
