Heck, I'm checking my frequent flier miles to see about giving Otaku a free flight to Dallas. Between myself and Goofygrin, we have everything he'd need.

I'm kinda new here, but has anyone suggested the idea of e-conferencing with Otaku to do the testing with the current build?
Example:
Coordinate what would be needed in order to do the tests on the MMCS
(I'm thinking someone who is savy with HDD removal, has the adapter to connect HDD to laptop, and a fairly decent computer).
Have Otaku dictate what hardware/software would be needed for him to adjust the program on the fly.
Then utilize some remote assistance program where Otaku could remotely program the HDD from the comfort of his own home(such as Crossloop) and an instant messenger for communication (AIM Express maybe?).
Theoretically, the volunteer would only have to remove the hard drive, connect it to their computer, and let Otaku do his thing, and reconnect the HDD to MMCS.
Test that build for functionality, if it works great, if not, rinse and repeat.
It might seem a bit of a stretch, but I'm just as anxious to see this happen as anyone else.
Just a suggestion, and I hope you'll be gentle on a noob's first post.
All the best,
SimonSez

I have everything I'd need, including a high-end laptop, experience locking/unlocking the drive, writing images to disk, a T1 net connection, and I've been a software architect for the last 5 years. Also, I could give a rat's *** if we brick the navi... I can fix it regardless. Otaku: I'll give you VNC to my laptop and we can get this taken care of. Let us know if you'd want to do the process this way.

Heh..
And now its _my_ turn to be :$
I coulda sworn I had PM notifications turned on..
*sigh*
As it happens , I'll apparently be heading out to Seattle around the 16th of this month..
If the Overlords can be persuaded that 6'4" me won't fit in economy class that is ..
And I think I'm sorted - all thanks to Brian Weaver of mitsubishiforum , he is in that locale ..
Hopefully will have a nice update for y'all soon..

I didn't read all the pages so feel free to flame but at least for the 2008 wrx navi in order for it to play movies in motion all you do is ground the wire that goes from the HU to the ebrake. But in the back of the HU not down by the handle. The navi thinks the ebrake is up.
Have you guys tried that?

Yea we have property 5 hours from houston and my wife and i like to put on a movie while we drive down there it helps pass the time. The trick is to watch a movie that you have seen before that way the driver can watch the road and listen to the movie rather than try to watch it so as not to miss anything. I would never watch a movie i had never seen while driving. Unless i really wanted to see it
but then again a mother #$@@#@ broke into my car and stole my alpine dvd head unit so i won't watch anymore movies till i get my evo and do this

Unfortunately, there's like a million other things the speed sensor is important for. Like, for example, the speedometer.
