Well yesterday my wife got a call from someone in the UK who told her that our CC was being used and they wanted to know if it was a legit charge. They asked her for the last 4 digits of her S/S # to verify her ID. Wifey, being a past victim of ID theft told her to go pound salt!
Yesterday was a bank holiday in the states so we couldn't contact our Credit Union to find out what was up. She also didn't know I had ordered "another dang tablet" as she put it.

I patiently explained: "But honey, it's not a tablet it's a dang computer in your dang pocket... but that's not all it's a danged cell phone too". (We use the word "dang" a lot.)

After some discussion about her "needs" blah, blah, blah... she called the bank this morning and found out it was a legit inquiry and had them release the funds...

$383.00

I believe jandmdickerson and I ordered on the same day and his bank immediately held funds of $369.00. >> http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=371

Looks like wifey's needs cost me $14 over the past 2 days because the U$D is sinkin' like a dang stone.

( j/k, it's all good ... thanks again Quim, et al. )
