So we need to take a lot of that into consideration before we tell ourselves to go and start writing letters that I honestly believe will fall into deaf ears, maybe the trick is to stop buying VZW products and when that takes effect a company will definitely think to figure out what to do.

So true equus, I know a guy in my area with a 730 and we meet every month or so, this week he was mad because the refurb unit asurion sent him a couple weeks ago had come with wm5 loaded. "Its too slow now" I tried to get him to load AutoStep but he wont. Says its too hard. He uses wireless sync and when he has a problem with the unit he simply hard resets and lets wireless sync load all his email and contacts back on. I shudder to think how many times he does that. I think he is the majority of ppc owners. I have yet to meet anyone who knows what a slingbox is, in fact one well-intentioned friend tried to get me to get rid of it when I explained to him what it was. He was sure that I would be fined or at the very least have my satellite shut off if someone found out.
