Hi Penny; Thanks for your nice story. It's about time I would hear something positive on this e-mail about Human Whare. Terry Powers

I called Humanware to request that they ship my upgrade as soon as they could because I anticipated traveling out of town and wanted to have the wireless connectivity available to me. I talked to Julie who told me to leave a message for Dominic. That's what I did. A couple of days later, I received e-mail from Dominic asking me to supply my shipping address. I sent the info to him and to Julie, and later that day, I got e-mail (and a voice mail message) telling me that the upgrade had been shipped. That was last Monday. I wrote on Friday - Who me? Impatient? - and asked if they could tell me when it would arrive. Julie e-mailed me right back and said that the tracking info indicated I would receive it on Monday. This last Monday, the upgrade arrived in mid-morning. I read over the instructions, and installed it successfully later that day. Now I'm just waitiing for the wireless card from Amazon, and hopefully, I'll be set to go. My experience with Humanware was that they were very responsive to my questions and my requests, and that they tracked my order and were able to tell me when to expect it. I am very pleased.
