Me Too...This pinnacle thing is a JOKE!!!

Pinnacle Micro has told me, since I have had a drive on order for now
seven months, the following:

November, December, middle January, Early February, middle February, early
March--and it takes me six calls to a sales rep every time I call.  They
avoid talking to customers like the plague!!!

Now they won't even say what is going on, except the drive isn't coming,
and all orders should be switched to a 2.6 drive they are developing.

I recommned the 2.6 GB from HP or Maxoptics---I have been reading news
releases about these drives...and I am going to check into it!!!

Noooooooo....kiddddding!!!!

I ordered this thing direct from Pinnacle...and they've been telling me, 
"yeah it's shipping in small quantities...uhm...a couple of weeks 
now..." And that has been the line for quite a number of weeks now.  
First, it was late November, then it was December, then it was February, 
then it was March 15, then it was sometime in April...and now I hear it's 
May???!??!  Sheeze..by the time this thing comes out, the new crop of 5.2 
gig drives will be out...*harrumph*

If they're going to ship the thing late, say so...but don't just lead us 
by the ear...

Talk about customer service...NOT!
