Growing up in the 70's, Aiwa was a top dog in the US. I think the mergers dilute the product/service.

Funny the 54 has better reviews (at OW) than the 84. Jump now or wait for the true EOFY.

This is 100% better than the sh1t being served at the shops. Move to Linux Mint afterwards (or right away).

"SOLVED (for me, for most)..." Telstra is supporting voice via 4g/700mhz/B28 only. If you find a workaround, I'm all ears. Doubt it though.
