UPS is an hour drive from my house and I have not had the time to go to ship it yet. The only person that has not complained has been Cepi. I admire his patience and that's why he deserves my phone. Be ashamed of yourselves all of you.

Thanks for the reply.

What I didn't understand is that you just didn't reply to my mails/pm's.

I did get one PM/Mail from that you were going to send it the weekend. (a couple weeks ago) But after that, no word came from you, even after trying to contact you a couple times.

(But I see that you do lurk here on tmo once in a while...)
This is letting people to think that this was a scam indeed.

I'm glad that you're still considering to send the device.

On a side note: Doesn't UPS pick up packages at home?
(At least they do here in the Netherlands)

UPS will only pick up packages at my home in the States if a shipping label has already been created. It is my understanding that labels can only be created here if you have an account, software, and a scale. I have been in contact with Cepi with updates and I informed you of this as well. I am not still considering anything. It is a done deal. There was nothing to consider. I said to everyone be patient. That is all that needs to be said.

Well, there a fitting Chinese proverb. Loosely translated, the appearance of being honest is just as important as being honest.

I disagree. Being honest is more important that appearing honest. What a terrible sentiment.

Yes, I had already shipped out the phone to cepi. I even sent him a P.M telling him that I am happy he did not complain to me about the time it took me to ship out the phone and changed my donation to him by giving him my brand new N9. As mature as I thought most of you were on this forum, I am without a doubt second guessing that opinion. There are a few who never doubted me and I am grateful for that, but some of the Devs here that received handsome donations from me showed otherwise. I hope this matter gets put to rest.
