I'm hardly a troll...and I'm not stating that there are companies out there that do support such a policy. I'm simply stating that, as a society, I personally believe we would be better off if we DID support such things. But we don't because we, as a society, are content with cheap disposable Chinese crap ad nauseum. Answer this...why do I have appliances that were built in the 60s that still run like a top, but any appliance I buy today can be expected to break down within 5 years? I digress. Back on topic, I'm pleased that SD did extend the warranty to 2 years. I just called them 2 days ago, and they are covering my broken-down SB 100%. Kudos to them. Just had a similar experience with Canon. I have digital camera that is 4 years old...WELL outside the warranty period. Long story short, the CCD died...it's a known common issue with this camera...and they are repairing 100% free of charge, including shipping. And THAT my friend is an example of a company willing to stand behind their product. -- scatbass ------------------------------------------------------------------------ scatbass's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4216 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35473 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
