To whom it may concern- May I be temporarily removed off the mailing list? I am traveling until 11/22. I will be forwarding my emails to my phone and my phone cannot handle the volume of emails that my lap top can. I would like to be "re-instated" on 11/22 if possible. In His Grip, Bo Machado MD _____

I know you better than that. :-) I am just curious (and I am sure that many other people are for when they need new chairs) WHAT chairs people are choosing and WHY. That is great that you are getting a leg bag opener put on it!!! What color did you pick? The DEMO that my husband brought back today is a shiny red color around the base and the tire rims. I like the red color but not sure right now what color I will end up choosing. Again, thanks again for your information! And hope you get it sooner than later!

ESPECIALLY after having TWO Permobiles to more or less prove that. Even though the dealer for A Quantum is much closer... just curious as to why you would want to change? Because I would put reliability first or before getting another chair. For example, my dealer/vendor is not exactly close by for WHICHEVER chair I use ... but I surely want one that I know has been reliable <--- to avoid going to the shop x-number of times. Any idea when your Quantum will arrive? I know these days that it takes 6+ months to GET any new chair so it is just a waiting game for you or can you call someone every once in a while to get an idea of when to expect it? Thanks in advance! Lori On Mon, Nov 8, 2010 at 12:21 PM, Eric W Rudd <[email protected]> wrote: Personally, I much prefer my Permobils over my Invacare solely due to reliability.

I hear Permobil is better and my vendor is bringing one for evaluation. Which do you prefer and why? Any suggested questions that I should ask?
