Lets cut to the chase here....

Regardless of how you spin the semantics, your intention was crystal clear. You do not need to deny it, behaviour shows core intentions/beliefs. You jumped to conclusions, made assumptions and got called on it. I am starting to see your personal pride issues. Stick to the formal subject at hand and stop trying to attack me personally simply because your argument is weak.

You seem to forget, you agreed to the ETF. Personally my core set of values includes keeping my end of an agreement as well as my word.

Service/Handset performance guarantees have not been promised by the carrier.

Work with the company constructively to fix the problem? Pray tell how do you do that? Maybe if Sprint actually goes through with the ROM beta program these guys can do that. Heck, Sprint might even release a ROM construction kit for all of us to use to fix the problem on our own! These guys and many others have obviously reported the issues to Sprint -- and up to this point, they haven't been fixed..

As you know there is an escalation process for legitimate issues. Just because you have not seen a viable fix released into the wild does not in any way communicate that one is not in development. Love your assumptions.

What's it to you if they want to pursue legal action to help fix their problems? If you don't like it, why don't you ignore the thread and let them discuss it amongst themselves. Maybe you should take your own advice and just leave a thread since nothing you're going to say is going to convince them that this action will be useless. How ironic that you advise them to just cut their losses and leave yet you continue posting in this thread that most likely will not change anyone's opinions.

I will once again pose my original question which i have asked several times, dont continue to ignore it and simply end all this by addressing it:



What exactly was promised, is different from any other handset, and was not delivered?

Show me EXACTLY, pics, documentation etc.




Finally, I am allowed my opinion on this forum just as you are. It is outside my control that OP or other posters were not prepared for thorough discussion. Clearly all you want is agreement in which case you should post your feedback on a private forum you control as oppose to a public one. I am not here to change "anyones opinion" rather to express another point of view which deserves its place as well. For you to suggest otherwise is once again, one of your excellent quality statements deserving of feedback.


See the question up above? its still there waiting for you.
