I'm so pissed off right now. My story follows:

I bought eight Nokia N800's back in March of '07 when CompUSA was closing in my area. I sold all of them except one which was still in the box (unopened). Just recently a friend bought it, opened it and tried to play the pre-packed music that comes with the unit. It was stuttering like crazy!! It would go about 1 second then pause, 2 seconds then pause, then play, pause, crazy stuff. We flashed it to the new OS2008 but received the same results. Also the screen taps are way off as in touching the bottom right of the screen would bring up the menu or close an application. It takes about 30 seconds to get into the media player because as you are trying to bring the menu up and select the application, everything else is receiving the taps.

I sent the unit to Nokia after their support said to do so. Well, now I received a letter saying "We can attenpt to repair your phone at a cost of $108.00". No, it's not a phone and they spelled "attempt" wrong. That's a lot of money for something that is out of the box. Yes, it's past their year warranty but still the principal of it all.

Oh and now I need to respond to Nokia within 30 days or they'll "dispose" of it.

What would you guys do???
