The most enthusiastic CherryPal Brand Angel happens to live close to the offices and she did, in fact, receive her CherryPal green computer today. Alas, despite months of waiting, she was completely unprepared and did not have her USB mouse and keyboard ready to go. (Really? I’m getting rid of my old serial versions since new laptops don’t have ports for them.) Apparently, these CherryPals are really, really small. This is great because my desk is cluttered.
I’m still waiting to receive my CherryPal to review for this blog. Two days ago, I got an email from someone over at CherryPal telling me they’d ship yesterday but needed to confirm my address. I sent my address to them immediately but yesterday heard nothing. No tracking number, no shipment, nothing. Apparently a few other CherryPal Brand Angels have gotten tracking numbers, so some machines have apparently shipped. I’m sorry I was not one of them – I really wanted to see the darn computer after all this time!
Sadly, there are still quite a few angry people over the whole CherryPal debacle, including some folks who claimed they paid for one and never received it or got a refund. We shall see if CherryPal can recover.
Update, 11:40 am PST: I have just received notification from UPS that CherryPal has sent package information to them. I have a tracking number, but the package has not yet been received by UPS so it’s not out for delivery yet. Assuming that all goes well, my scheduled delivery is Friday, December 5. Fingers crossed!
