I got an email from a person tonight, inviting me to get into line for HOVRS MVP... So, I tried to sign up. But I needed a Purple Number. Huh? What Purple Number? I looked high and low and everywhere, and I couldn't find a Purple Number. What are they talking about? So, because I couldn't find an answer to this Purple Number thingy, I decided to call customer service. Hmm. You have to get a Purple Number from the person who invited you. It's not a phone number. It's a special Purple Number.
Ah well. So much for that.
And what's the deal with all of these hoops you got to jump through? What for? And what exactly am I lining up for? And how long is that line going to be?
Nah, I'll either buy a Viable VPAD or patiently wait for a HOVRS MVP... Though I could use MVP for work! I make a lot of phone calls at work... Using www.sprintcaptel.com, which is a bother, because people can't call me that easily. I sure could use HOVRS MVP! It looks sweet. But it's not worth the hassle. All these hoops to jump through... Just like the effort to become "purple" in order to be able to watch exclusive movies... But that was worth the effort. I'm not sure the MVP is worth the effort...
I guess I should investigate the VPAD... [Update: OK, I just researched the VPAD. It's not available for public sale yet. :-( Companies are such a tease! You know it's available, but it's not quite available yet. Do they have to be so cruel? Sure, it's available at DeafExpos, but there are none near me in the near future. And OMG, $699?!? Sigh. That's expensive for a mobile phone. (I know, technically it's not a mobile phone, but you get the analogy - it's MOBILE!) Try $399 (the price of the most expensive iPhone, for example) or $299, and maybe I'll get one. Gosh. You just gotta save up money to get a VPAD, I guess. I'm not sure I want to spend $700 for a VPAD :-( :-( Well, OK, I'll just put down '$$$' on my wish lists for Christmases and Birthdays from now on! Ha ha. We'll see exactly how long it takes for me to get a VPAD.]
And is it just me, or do you have to wait FOREVER for these things? I know I had to wait forever for my VP-100 and VP-200! And all this time I was only trying to get my VP100 fixed because it was somehow misconfigured after my router broke, and I had to get a new router. So I was sitting there with an unusable VP-100 for MONTHS.
