WM 5 Update

I chatted with a Dell rep. this morning concerning the shipping of WM5. Here is what he told me:

{ 10:50:53 AM} Hi
When will the Windows Mobile 5 upgrade CD ship to Axim X50v owners?
{John 10:51:30 AM} Thank you for contacting Dell Hardware warranty Support Chat. My name is Cecil, you may also call me John.
May I have your complete name and telephone number as on our records please.
---- EDITED ----
{John 10:54:06 AM} Please give me 2 minutes while I get some information on your issue.
{ 10:54:15 AM} Ok
{John 10:56:49 AM} Yes Bronson it will be updated within a months time
{John 10:57:04 AM} But I am not sure the exact date
{John 10:57:08 AM} Is there anything else I may assist you with ?

They do that to make you feel like you are talking to an american. Most of the online chat people are probably in India.

That's true in my experience as well, but in this case, Cecil is a pretty English name!

Yes, very true! But I guess most people expect names like Sanjeet, Gursharan, etc.

Just guessing but I bet with the British influence they might have both a British name and a traditional Indian name. I have a neighbor who is Indian, I will have to ask...
