Is that for the beta program or actual sign up?

Actual signed up waiting for them to ship equipment as part of the beta program. They already have my money.

@Robert I’m sure those emails were just computer generated. And the computer doesn’t seem to be able to count OR it has a real bad stuttering problem.

800 go FedEx. They are supposed to call me back today w/answers as to why it was routed the way it was. Guy on the phone did speak English but I don’t think he was in the states.
