they created a pot of gold by lieing to people and getting them to part with their money. they said it would be shipped by a date (2 or 3 months after you paid). it still has not shipped. i dont call that a success. i dont care how much it might be "but that was unexpected delays". a few weeks ok - a few months. ok. almost 1.5 years of delay and still not shipped - after asking for money and giving a shipping date almost 1.5 years ago - fail. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
