Has anyboady experienced any long waits for the upgrade from 5.05 to 5.10? Most people seem to have the upgrade now; but I sent the form in over a month ago and haven't heard a thing. I'll probably call them in a few days, but I figured I'd ask around first to find out if it's a common problem or it's just me :-)

I'm not all that worried myself, as I'm already using the 2.0 calls (I'm a registered developer and own an a3000), but I do hope that they'll be able to get things organized pretty soon. --- Opinions expressed in this message are my Own.

Then, when it got here, they couldn't deliver it to me (I live in a University dorm, and have a box which they don't deliver to), and I kept getting an answering machine when I tried to call and get directions to get down to them to pick it up. I finally managed to give them directions they could follow, and it got here almost one month to the day after SAS sent it. I don't necessarily fault them for the extra time it took once in Tampa (although the inability of me to get directions to them slowed it down), but 3 weeks from North Carolina to Florida is LUDICROUS! Sorry to vent frustrations here, but felt it should be known that not all delays are SAS' fault. Also, with my payment (which was probably LATE due to RPS' delays in getting it to me), I included a note for SAS letting them know of the troubles... -- Greg Stelmack -- Email: stelmack@sol.csee.usf.edu -- USmail: USF Box 1510, Tampa, FL 33620-1510 -- Amiga: the only way to compute! -- IRAQNOPHOBIA: Nothing a little RAID wouldn't cure!
