Interesting,
Which country? how is the list of spare parts determined? A simple question. If you sell a flashlight that takes standard batteries must you hold a stock of 3 years of spare batteries for all your customers? Or if you sell a car must hold 3 years of spare tires in stock for all the customers? If you sell a Lamp, do you hold 3 years of light bulbs as spares? basically, this goes to the definition of spare part. Im curious how they define it.

It's a legal (rules and regulations) issue. in my county you can not seal a devises without the ability to seal spare parts. The regulator must to make sure that you have the ability to support the costumers (include hardware maintenance and support) its mean that any distributor / reseller need to hold a spare parts in stock (or to make sure that he have a continuous supply of spare parts) for 3 years after the date the costumer buy a device . - doron steve wrote: I thought about spare parts a while back. The Issue is this. 1. WHAT do I stock ( which parts) 2. How Many do I stock? 3. How do I sell them to you? 4. What will it cost? 5. how do you get them? I suppose I could Offer component kits for sale. That would be the quickest thing for me to do. Sell the whole bag of parts; fix it your self. or build a business around this service. Let me think about it. Throw rotten fruit at this idea if you like.

What's about availability and pricing of spare parts like LCM, battery, housing? Will there be any repair service? cheers jOERG _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- http://www.ofek.biz P Save a tree...please don't print this e-mail
