I don't think we'll get any movement out of them at least this month, maybe we need a break after all the (self-induced?) hype of the last month or two to get a bit of perspective.

I don't think they set out to deliberately deceive anyone, but it's appears that they held the "line" for some time after they knew it wasn't going to happen that way. That certainly moved them into the realm of the dishonest, but at least it wasn't premeditated deception.

I think they're probably doing the best they can ... on everything except (prospective) customer relations. 'Course it's entirely possible that they've been completely forthcoming with their identified B2B customers, and we little people have just gotten left out, possibly due to a feverish focus on delivering for the B2B's. (I get the impresion that they don't have a very large staff -- and possibly no means to hire one without actual revenue)

I do agree that it shows a lack of interest, if not disdain, for the individual person customers, which I don't think serves them well. However, it may be more of a comment on the current (presumed) misplacement of their attention than on their fundamental business practices and reliability.

In any case, since we don't seem to have any choice but to wait, I guess I'll just wait. Maybe Phillips will bring out its roll-up device before the rest of these folks get their acts together. Wouldn't that be nice?
