- That is pretty cool on Dell's part! Do you have a backup program on your Axim? If so, you *could* perform a backup on the current device (assuming it doesn't fail in the middle) and restore that backup to the replacement unit. OF course, the replacement unit would have to be the same model with the same features for that to work. -= Russ =- (BottomFeeder) -----Original Message----- From: geocaching-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:geocaching-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Chris Binder Sent: Friday, January 23, 2004 16:13 To: Geocaching Newsgroup Subject: [GeoStL] NGR: Another reason why Dell's Tech Support is awesome... Ok...so my dell axim makes a funny squealing noise that it really shouldn't be making. I contacted dell about the problem. They said my Axim was failing on me and it should be replaced. I e-mailed back explaining that I'm a full time student and I need all my notes and stuff transfered over, etc, etc... They said they would bend the rules and make an exception. They would ship a new unit, and as soon as I recieved that and transferred over everything, I could send the faulty unit back. This was the first time I've ever had a problem with a dell product. I mean, with other companies, they wouldn't care who you were, they'd always make you do what's easiest for them. With dell, they include a free waybill label and all the necessary packaging. Chalk up another good report for Dell. Sorry...I'm rambling on and on. I just wanted to share with you just how nice and helpful Dell Tech. Support is and I would recommend them anyday of the week.
