Buy Blue Jeans cables to support lawsuit vs Monster?

They are donating 10% of all proceeds from sale to help support an owner of a mini golf course in FL that is being sued by Monster. Legal fees are said to be very high.
Wow.
Man, now that;s what I call a frivolous lawsuit!

Ummmmmmmm

Dang it Josten...
by RustyDallas - 12/12/08 9:20 AM In reply to: Ummmmmmmm by givemeanameI've never gotten or heard of better tech support than I've gotten with my Monster remote. Now, I want to get one for my elderly grandmother for both home control and activity buttons. I'd like her to be able to adjust her thermostat from bed, for instance. It would be much easier on me if her remote matched mine so I could tell her which buttons to push over the phone when she got confused. The problem is, now that you've pointed out that Monster is frivolously suing the miniature golfers, I can't make myself pull the trigger. May have to go with Logitech now to keep my conscience clear. What a drag.

hey Rusty
by jostenmeat - 12/12/08 12:44 PM In reply to: Dang it Josten... by RustyDallasI doubt that its as nice as the monster, but i use a URC RF-20. Its $50, or add $30 more for the blaster. Its native IR + RF. Very easy to program and use. Just use the manual programming method.
Hey, should I spring for this $150 Garmin? 36 hr rat shack sale/

I couldn't get the link to work but...
by RustyDallas - 12/12/08 1:47 PM In reply to: hey Rusty by jostenmeatI went to the Radio Shack web site and if it's the 250W, I wouldn't. Turn by turn voice guided directions isn't the same thing as "text to speech". If it doesn't say either that or "Calls out street names", I'd keep looking. Don't know if there's any Comp USA's left over there but in Dallas they had some refurbished Magellan 4250's in todays paper for 119.99.
On the remote, I want the Z wave so I can buy here a thermostat for her house that she can adjust from the remote. Don't know if there's much choice other than the Monster 300's and the Harmony 890 pros.
Rusty
thanks Rusty

Monster Cable Drops Mini Golf Lawsuit and Offers Compromise
http://forums.audioholics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50554
I didn't know that Monster even tried suing over the Green Monster at Fenway. Wow. 
I used to think I simply got ripped off when I first bought Monster products. I felt some regret, but got over it. Unfortunately, I've recently come to learn that I've bought products from a most despicable company. I'm having a hard time getting over it.
rusty, I take back what I said about the remote! 
Yea, I think a better compromise...
by RustyDallas - 12/16/08 8:00 AM In reply to: some threads by jostenmeatwould be to counter sue for legal fees and agree to donate those proceeds to charity on behalf or Monster Mini Golf. I also think the settlement must include dropping the demand of 100.00 per month from the franchisee's. It would be nice if the one who initiated the frivolous suit was the one who got burned. I wonder how much of the legal costs were defrayed by donations?
Rusty
I don't know
by jostenmeat - 12/17/08 10:45 AM In reply to: Yea, I think a better compromise... by RustyDallasbut +$200,000 is a lot of money to defray.
