Well,Bob, I haven't been too eagger to upgrade. I think a company comes up with one good program, and then when it starts to compete, it just adds bells and whistles. Now didn't this company merge? Either that entity will come up with a good product, or I'm gone. This stuff about email problems and disk denied problems shouldn't have happened. Now in all fairness, maybe some users created the problem by leaving cards and such in the system, something I don't do. Still I'm suspicious of the upgrades. I'm not paying $300 for a batch of errers. Besides, the new program with instructions should come on a Compact flash card or a disk You shouldn't need a PC to add a new program. Since I'm airing what I think, I'll tell you something else. Whoever would send a disk drive without a way to format those disks? I shouldn't have to do it on another piece of equipment. I should be able to do it with my Voice Note. That oversight is just stupid in my oppinion. Fix it. I brought this up before with no response. In addition, I called the company with a problem I had some two weeks ago. I sat on hold for about 45 minutes, left a message, and got no response. I finally found a solution, but is this what PDI calls service? Yes, I enjoy my system as it is, but I'm scared to send it back. They might ruin it.
In addition, I think my previous version should be stored on that card in case the newer version doesn't work. Loosing emails and abilities to use flash cards etc. is inexcusable, especially for the prices PDI charges. That's my view.
