Title: Shirtpocket
Post by: pisuke on February 08, 2006, 06:15:14 pm: Hi all!

I've tried to buy some Zaurus related products from Shirtpocket, but they've taken the money
a few months ago and never answered my emails or the phone when I try to call them :(

Has anybody else experienced my same problems?

Thanks,

pisuke

Then a lot of reports came in saying that orders weren't being fulfilled and people had sent money etc.. it seemed that they were in the middle of a move of premises and a move of website. I'm sorry to hear that it sounds as if they still can't deliver

We should all group together and start a google keyword campaign to warn others about them. Its a disgrace they can continue to get away with ripping people off.

Any ideas for a good supplier in the UK......I need a bluetooth card, and some screen protectors...and a battery extender.

Cheers

screen protectors - the brando ultraclear ones are astonishingly good

battery extender - ebay? brando? get a spare battey?

Thanks for the reply.

I've been trawling the web for the last hour for a replacement battery, but it would seem there are none in the UK There is one on amazon.com, but they will not deliver it to the UK. Dealtime.com shows a few shops stocking them, so I'll have to see if any deliver to the UK.
