|Another person called back from Telebit this AM, saying she had talked

|indeed someone from Telebit had called to let me know about Profit
|Freight, and then fed me the line that [paraphrased] "No, we won't be
|sending you a chip upgrade set, and yes, you should still expect a
|call from Profit Freight sometime, and they may decide to send you the
|chip upgrade after they ask you for your serial number."
|
|Needless to say, I'm confused and frustrated now!
|
|When I expressed my frustration, saying that I knew of several other
|local people who had already received their upgrade chip-set packages,
|she said "Sorry, but I'm only instructed to call and inform you of the
|Profit Freight arrangements."
|
|I didn't remind her that the first call was June 25, and that the
|original promise was that Profit Freight would call the week of July 6.


	Hmmmm, I don't understand.  I called 1-800-telebit
	& talked to someone who confirmed that yes the serial
	number thing was in fact a reality & yes they would
	be happy to send me an upgrade chip set.


	They did this & I installed it & it works just fine.


	This all occurred a few weeks ago; perhaps now that
	they've had so much hassle with the deliverers etc.
	they just want to make things as simple as possible...
