Came to their senses? More likely just got caught up.

Everybody waiting for their Flux may want to read the announcement posted by the owner of CF over at the CF forums.

so, i'm thinking about getting a CF. on the website, it only talks about being ready to use with a PS2. what do i need to make it work with an xbox? also, when you use it, how loud is it? does it sound like you're just jumping on a big piece of wood or what? thanks!

You'll need a PS2 -> Xbox converter.

And it sounds like running on a kitchen counter. ... You know, uh, for those of you who have done that before.

I should be receiving my pair of CFs next week but one thing I haven't been able to find online is how long are the cords?

Why does the CF website try to redirect me to www.suspended.page?

My guess is that they either didn't pay their hosting bill or that they went too far over their bandwidth limit for the month.

I had hope by ordering at the end of janurary to miss the delays, looks like that's not going to happen. I was wondering though if anyone has tried a PS2 to Xbox controller convertor to use the pad on the xbox. If so, how does it work? Is there delay? Any major problems?
Here's to hoping the website comes up soon with my status: shipped

idk if this has happened to you but i have tried to go too ddr freak a few times this month and i got that same page. it usually came back the next day.

Im mad because the dreaded "Being Built" sign went away and changed to "awaiting shipment". Now i have to wait for the site to come back up to get my number.

Aww man.. CF being down bothers me a lot. I've been saving up for a doubles pack recently, and I keep thinking about CF closing down just before I get to order them. I keep picturing them saying that the business was awesome while it lasted, that they have a lot of good memories, but it's just too big a project to keep going, and they they need to get back to focusing on school and stuff.

Can you imagine how much these guys must be making, though? That would be an AWESOME job to have while you were in college, considering each pad probably nets them at least two hundred dollars profit. But I can understand how the work load might become unbearable at times.

Let's hope my vision doesn't become a reality. =/ I have a few weeks left to go on my saving, but I really want those pads. Nothing else can or will ever compare to a CF quality and longevity wise.

ya i just went on to the site a little after midnight and its up again. my guess is that they were working on it or something. luckily it was just a 24 hour thing.

i will say that although i was glad to see the site back up, i was not glad to see that the status on my CF was still being built...

The main site is up. The forums (the most active part of the site), however, are still down.

the forums worked for me...

they said that this was the higest traffic month they ever had and the first time they ever ran out of bandwidth. they also said that huge shipments would be going out on monday and tuesday which makes me optimistic that maybe its mine.

My pair of pads showed up yesterday and are now all set up. I know this is going to sound a bit weird but has anyone used a KVM switch with VGA type connectors on the control box to switch between game consoles? I have a US PS2, Japanese PS2, XBox, and Home Theater PC that I am switching between currently. I would love to be able eliminate the constant cable swapping between systems.
