Seeing Everbest's (local authorized ZyXEL distributor) advert for
their ZyXEL V.34 modem in the Standard/Sing Tao computer paper (a
local bi-weekly computer-orientated newspaper) mentioning a trade-in
programme, I rang up to enquire for the details.

Wasn't particularly hopeful for a good deal as ZyXEL's local
distributors over the years have always been kind of greedy, I learnt
that by trading in my ZyXEL U-1496E+, I would get HK$500 (US$64)
knocked off my purchase of a Elite, which is around HK$5000 (US$640)
in this part of the world.

I said thank you and hung up.
