Thought you all might be interested in reading this. It is the first Handspring E-newsletter that went out to everyone who requested to be put on their mailing list. For those who aren't, here it is:

Dear <my name>,

Welcome to the first Handspring e-newsletter
Finally, our first newsletter! We apologize that we've been out of touch for so long. As many of you know, we've been working around the clock to ramp up our systems, get our web site up and running and ship Visor handhelds. We've had a fantastic demand for our products and it's taken us a bit longer than we expected to load and launch our systems. With that, we're sorry we've not communicated sooner, but read on to see what we've been up to.

After many long hours of hard work, our online store is back up and running. That's right, the Handspring online store is now up to take your orders. Plus, you'll be able to order Springboard Expansion Modules, cases to protect your Visor, and all sorts of Handspring stuff from hats and t-shirts to gym bags and jean shirts. www.handspring.com

Want to know the status of your order?
We understand that you'd like to know when you're going to get your hands on your Visor handheld...and anything else you've ordered. To boot, you may have experienced problems checking your order status. We have doubled our phone crews and are continuing to produce Handspring Visors and ship them out as quickly as we can. If you placed your order through the online store and have received a confirmation email, your order is in our system - there is no need to call for verification. For questions about orders placed over the phone, visit our shipping news page. Please expect your package to ship 4 to 6 weeks from the date of order. Thanks again!

Our Handspring developer community has flipped over our Springboard" Expansion slot. Every day, we get tons of great ideas on new modules that will turn your Visor handheld in to all sorts of things. Check out the Handspring site for the Springboard Modules you can get today. We'll also let you know what's developing in future e-newsletters.

Handspring has a wealth of cases for your Visor. The Premier styles range from executive to casual to hip. Our Matching cases let you mix or match your colorful Visor to a colorful case. Visit the cases section of the Handspring web site and check out the latest styles

Again, we'd like to thank you for your patience and we'll keep you posted with more news in a few weeks!

Sincerely,

Ed Colligan

VP, Marketing and Sales
Handspring, Inc.

Well, it didn't go out to everyone on the list since I signed up for it and have yet to receive anything from Handspring (except for my Visor). Guess I should just re-subscribe since their mail server could be as screwed as their ordering system.

Then again, it's not like there's anything new in the newsletter anyway.
