Mp3 spoilt ='(

This is one of the things that i dreaded.. mp3 player isnt working.. and the warranty just expired.. cre8tive just gave 1 yr of warrant, which i think is kind of too short. Hey i spent a few hundred bucks on their prodt (plus i replaced it once for 125 bucks) and i am only entitled to 1 yr of warranty? i know i sounded it out a bit late, but i realised 1 yr isnt long.. and my mp3 player is still v new. and now the charge for repairing could cost well up to 100 dollars, which i might as well buy a new prdt. i'd heard that their maintenance and support isnt gd, which i couldnt judge, but to me, i think their prdt maintenance is certainly too expensive.

Ok, some people out there may think this way: a poor guy shldnt be complaining abt the maintenance fees and indulge in such luxury, if in the first place he couldnt afford the maintenance fees.
Oh well, but that is none of ur business.

Ok, some ppl will maybe talk to me in this tone: U lar, so clumsy, didnt take gd care of it.. there u see, now spoil liao, haha , u deserve it.
Ok, i admit i am v careless and is rough to my gadget, but again, none of ur biz.

arghh.. but the gd thing is that now i have an excuse to MAYBE buy the new Z-en stone +, which i had been aiming for, ever since nina told me abt it. 2GB, 99 bucks, small and light, chic in design and comes with an LCD screen. but again, i need to consider, it is cre8tive's prdt, meaning the warranty may be as short as my old mp3 player. i dun know abt other brands' warranty period, but to me, 1 yr is a bit too short. maybe this is the standard length of warranty for all mp3 players.. but isnt that too short? 1 yr = 12 months... 12 months.. is so short! 356 days man! if i divide it by 300 (minus weekend and pub hols) 1 working day of the player will cost 1 dollar plus.. excluding my own electric bill for charging it.

ok, read the news, Iraqi team won the asian cup, hee, and i am happy abt that, cos the dark horse outshone the rest! and isnt it great that the team brought along a rare occasion for their war-tattered country to celebrate in joy(or perhaps unison)? i believed the players did play every game for their folks in Iraq.

alright, temp work ending tml, i am quite happy with the short stint with the dept, will definitely miss the environ .. a lot of ppl in the dept r leaving soon.. and what will be left r only memories from now on..
