As the completion meter slowly reaches the end, I took up our new prototype PDA and played around with it. It’s quite fun actually having new integrated technology in it and it’ll definitely be the new flagship for our product line. People gives ooohs and aaahs when they saw the unit. And for the sake of ornamental, the device doesn’t even work properly and these people already have positive idea to get the PDA. And then always, these people will ask:

"How much is it?"

As if I’m a sales person for the damn unit. Got tired and I asked them to refer to the Sales. And I was surprised that the majority of this people asking this very same question are from Technical Support. I guess stupid people exist everywhere! So, back to the update, it’s still slowly copying the new firmware into its ROM. And then the unexpected happened:

"The system encountered an error and need to shut down to protect Windows file system."

And poof, every goes up in smoke! ARGH!
