Okay who wants to go set fire to Telus mobility HQ by MikeCDN 2005-02-11 15:36:59
When I bought my V710

On the Telus Website: "Download ringtones, images, games, video and applications"

Sales Person: Bluetooth, Games Support, works great, it's a great phone.

When I Opened the Box: Thank you for purnchasing a Motorolla V710, at the current time there is no support for Java Applications such as games. A free update will be avaible early Feburary 2005"

When I used the camera: "Dear god this camera sucks... and why does the menu keep bugging"

When visiting HowardForums: "The update will include game support, as well as fix countless bugs"

In mid January 2005 while visiting the verizon section of HowardForums: "Nya Nya Nya Nya, we got our update, nya nya nya nya"

When phoning Telus Early Febuary 2005: "We have no record of a firmware update, contact your dealer"

When contacting my dealer: "We've heard nothing, you should contact Telus"

When I pointed out that I had: "I'll talk to my motorolla rep"

A few days later "She says mid feburary"

When in a shop a couple days ago: "We expect the update within days"

When calling Telus today: "You should talk to your customer care center"

When calling my costomer care center: "We've heard nothing from motorolla, you should talk to Telus"

When talking to Telus again: "You should talk to your customer care center"

When pointing out that I just did "Hold on let me call them"

Wait on hold for 10 minutes

When I come off hold: "I just spoke with them, call them back at the end of febuary"

ARGH
