    | | | Inbox


    Dear Apple Customer:

    On behalf of Apple, we would like to invite you to participate in a
    follow-up web survey regarding your recent telephone call to Apple
    Sales Support.

    Your perspective is very important to Apple and the AppleCare team. All
    information you provide will be treated in accordance with Apple's
    privacy policy and will be used solely to improve our support programs
    and product offerings.

    Our goal is to better understand the varied reasons that customers
    call Apple Sales Support so that we can better improve the helpfulness
    and quality of our customer service.

    Please be assured that Apple will not attempt to contact you for sales
    based upon your responses to these survey questions.

    To complete this web survey, simply click on the web address (URL)
    displayed below or copy and paste the entire web address into the
    address field of your web browser.

    Note: AOL users, you may find it easier to copy and paste the web
    address (URL) below into the address box at the top of your screen.


    ive just filled in the online web survey it gave me lots of opportunitys to tell them what I thought of the whole shopping experience with apple.....

    however the fact i got asked to take part makes me think apple is taking the pi.h.....
  • I feel much better after filling in the survey. Odds are it'l be torn up/deleted etc.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    I am shocked, really thought the E1 is still in production but last week I emailed olympus (UK) and I got this reply today (took them about 1 week to reply- maybe they're in contact with apple and that's why it took so long to reply?):

    Dear ***

    Thanks for your recent enquiry.

    We apologise for the delay in the response to your query. Unfortunately the E1 is now discontinued as it has stopped being manufactured.

    You may find some shop stock left in some retailers, however, if the product is not available i'm afraid that may be the end of the line.

    Kind Regards

    "still a current model" was what Olympus told me after I send them an e-mail.

    Can't put in the e-mail due to their e-mail disclaimer. Keep within the law :) !
