Call them up and see what can be done. Since you are in still the 30 day money back stage, I'll bet you can get a refund, or just send it back and re-buy it.

This does not surprise me. Think about the hoops a potential buyer had to go through when the visorphone debuted:

$300 for a phone WITHOUT ACTIVATION when you can get a free phone with activation elsewhere, then
Change your current provider, when you don't have to do so elsewhere, then
Carry around a HUGE unit, when you can get something much smaller elsewhere, then
Hold your PDA to your face all day and get sweat and body oil all over it

By the time you filter through these four barriers, Handspring was left with a small group of customers that were:

1)hard-core gadget freaks that 2)value novelty over convenience, belt holsters to pockets, and have 3)plenty of disposable income. Not a huge market.

Well, that descsription fits me pretty well, but it sounds like a BAD thing when you put it like THAT.
