Is it here yet! Ordered Monday, still hasn't shipped. Tried to call to see if something was wrong with my order, particularly the GPS as it let me add it online, but when I tried to order over the phone they wouldn't let me -- it was getting an "expired" error. It's a sign of things to come. All I received was disconnecting extensions and terminal holds.

Nevermind, it just arrived. It's like when I have a question about doing something with a 'puter that I haven't done in a while. All I have to do is type the question in a public forum, and the answer comes to me.

I heard that you can download a theme that will basically turn the mogul into an iphone.

Grrr...I just tried to order on the phone and now I have to pay $399 to get the Mogul despite my last rep telling me I could get it for $288 (I wanted to read up more first). The GPS was also no longer included with the plan, but I was expecting that as only 1 out of 3 communications (2 calls and an email) said it was, and I really didn't expect the price to be darn near free for everything.

EDiT: I didn't pay the extra $$. I really should take the hint and go elsewhere, but I want the Mogul. I'll try again tomorrow. Gosh, am I turning into a problem customer before I even get on? Pooperz.

I was told it was due to a problem in their system and that the $111 credit would show up as soon as they catch up on account credits in a month or so. *shrug* We will see if it actually shows up.

I guess I didn't get the right people, because I didn't get any explanation or duration for a fix. I'm still angry that I'm returning my Mogul.

For those of you who would like to try out a much faster browser than the preloaded Internet Explorer, grab and install Opera Mini.
