UPDATE: Amp'd has changed closing date to July 31st.
Posted on July 24, 2007 / TELL-A-FRIEND ABOUT THIS!


Amp'd Mobile has given current US customers 8 more day before they "potentially suspend US opertaions" than we originally reported.

According to the Amp'd Mobile Q&A webpage, the company has changed the date from July 23rd to July 31st ... however they are still listing July 23rd as the last day customer service will be provided to current US customers, which was yesterday and it seems as if that is holding true. They've already disabled the CUSTOMER SERVICE link on their website which now goes to a 404 (Page Not Found) page. The customer service page for their Canada department however still functions properly.

And just an update on the ordering situation ... again we were allowed to type in our ZIP code, select a service plan and a phone, but were presented with the same error message as before.

BREAKING NEWS FROM DELL ... they are releasing laptops that are ...
... multi-colored!

Wow ... amazing ... those people over at Dell really know how to push the envelope ... honestly, this defintely should seal the deal that Michael Dell will be this year's Time Man of the Year.

So I headed over to Dell's website hopefully before these laptops sell out ... who knows, this could be Dell's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

So when I arrive and go through Dell's random menu system, I pick the Inspiron 1721 and click on BUILD YOURS, select a random service plan and then there it is ... right their in front of me ... its like getting to the end of the random and finding the pot of gold ... a SELECT MY SYSTEM COLOR option. I just moving my mouse over all the colors and watch the back of the laptop change ... fun ... amazing ... what technological geniuses ... and then after five minutes of watching the colors change I remember that I'm colorblind and really don't need a laptop.

Hopefully you noted the sarcasm in this whole story ... but seriously, Dell did come out with the multi-color laptop which defintely will be a fashion statement in the tech world. I've used Dell for many years, including the desktop and notebook that I do my blogging from, and have to say I wouldn't try anything else ...

Anyways, for those who haven't seen the commercial for them, you're in luck ...
