Gadgets seem to be like busses – you get nothing for ages, and then three arrive all at once!
Well, yesterday I not only recieved a warranty replacement D-Link DWl2100AP (my old one failed at the start of the week… but D-Link offer a two-year warranty, and managed to send a replacement within a day! Kudos :)) but also a slimline Rumble Pack for my new Nintendo DS Lite (the black one, of course), and my scan order.
Now this order was for almost £1000 (eek!) yet it still took them a week to even pick the items from their warehouse! Now, if anything had been out of stock then I’d understand – but they showed plenty of stock for everything I ordered both when the order was placed, and for the next week.
I also currently have two Squeezeboxes (Squeezeboxen?) – although one of these is for Chris – and all of the parts (save for a motherboard) I need to construct my 1Tb storage array… more on this later.
My lounge now looks like a cardboard bomb hit it 😉
