Telecom harrier,what a mind f***
I bought mine about 6 weeks ago,also bought a telecom recommended bluetooth incar kit that plugged into the lighter socket.
The incar kit wouldn't stay connected when the harrier went into sleep mode,so would have to reconnect it or leave the harrier turned on all the time,then it wouldn't even connect so I took it back to the nice telecom man who said a couple of days later that it would not work for him either and he would get me a replacement,great !
Then a couple of days later the harrier speaker all but stopped working,couldn't hear the phone ringing and could just make out what someone was saying if I put it on speaker phone and put my ear right up to it[but only in a perfectly quite room]
So back to the Telecom shop again,I was told that the repairer normally takes 3 weeks,but as these are data business devices it would probably be quicker.
Three weeks later I got my harrier back [still no sign of the BT car kit,the one he was going to replace mine with was also an out of the box failure]apparently the repairer replaced the mainboard,speaker,qtec level 2,and the lcd??
All was well for a day and a half then I noticed that familiar sound breakup and by the end of the day was back to a near inaudible device again.
Back to the telecom shop again today,the guy said,oh no we'll have to send it back for repair again,I said I don't think so,I refrained from jumping up and down and suggested he get the manager to ring me at work tomorrow as I'm going to ask for my money back for both devices.
I can't believe a repair turnaround time of 3 weeks for these devices which telecom would have you believe is almost a laptop replacement,if my dell M70 laptop craps out,a tech will be here tomorrow to fix it.
I've noticed that compared to my telecom falcon,this pda is very slow and buggy,frequently mixing up outlook and texting messages,not letting me delete messages,activsync taking about 5 minutes to establish a bluetooth connection and so on,telecoms rom upgrade dated 12-10-04 appears to me to be really old compared to imate and others .
