My last 3-4 e-mails have gotten that as a response too. I don't know what the trigger to get to the next phase is, but the same response over and over is frustrating. I give up.
Got a tip for us?

So I got the info from Billy and I am at the last stage of this thing but I don't have a frickin' mac with me to open the .dmg file (which i even know the password for). If someone could please PM a way around this or maybe include the files of the .dmg I would be very grateful!
response time?
hey guys, i just sent my first email to billy.....how long did it take for him to respond to you guys? thanks

its been 45 minutes since i sent mine....were you blatant about trying to get iphone info? i asked him about his job at apple and how one would acquire such a job, etc, to gradually introduce the iphone....what do you think?
His response time varies from what I hear, but yes, I did blatantly ask him for iPhone specs in my initial e-mail.
Finally got the specifications! Are the photos required? Because, I don't have a Mac yet to open the .dmg.
same here dude, i've tried command line tools to try to make it an iso image in windows and then nero and other iso programs can't identify the iso image so you cant extract the files.
I believe the fact that they are encrypted files prevents you from creating a proper image, so don't even try(waste of 2 hours)
can someone pm me with the renders of the iphone, it would be appreciated. i will be ordering a macbook pro and just want some cool apps for it.
I'd also love the renders, been trying to get Billy and Frank to give up the information for a couple of hours, just to run into a dead end.
I know the password and everything, I just can't open the file.
If you need help with a heist
If you are having trouble getting through a heist or you just wanna cheat do get through a heist fast, go to the forums on the Mac Heist website and go to the Back Room section.
Also keep in mind that each heist lasts a week, and it isn't a competition to see who finishes first, so don't think that you should have to complete the heist in just a few hours.

your using windows, right. It's not going to happen. we need someone to post the actual renders to submit to macrumors because we are using pcs.
24 hours later I never got any response. But my email to Billy was about pineapples. Maybe that's not the way to break the ice.
I heard there were some problems with Billy in the beginning (perhaps he was sleeping?
). Try again, you should get a response.
In the Backroom Phill, the guy running the whole Mac Heist, posted a FAQ that covers what you should say/length of the emails to your contacts. It is really helpful.
other dmgs?
hey guys,
in the files section of apple internal, there are a bunch of other dmg's....are these just blank files to simulate a real apple site, or are there actual passwords to view some sort of content stored in them?

finally had the mail from billy, macrumors and Lisa and got three apps.
nice game.
But who is Hubert!
ps: when you click on the dynamite on the front page of macheist, you have access to a coded memo named "are you ready?".
couldn't find out the code. looked at my screen in a mirror, from every angle, but couldn't get the message...

Exact same thing here.
I have the .DMG file and password but am on a PC and can't open it. ARGGHH
Can anyone PM me the PNG files or how to get access to the pics on a PC?
The pics are in the Backroom on MacHeist.
Spoiler for pics of iPhone
Don't go there unless you are on windows and need the pics, or are to lazy to do the heist.
I really hope this is the design of the iPhone (if there is such a thing). It's the perfect balance between an iPod and a phone.
