TO ALL: I have been waiting for three weeks for a product from the SHOMI Corp. called the Cheeta.Today I was told that when you pay $1990 you have to wait until they send it to you.I Prepaid the order three weeks ago today.Since that time I have been promised a number of times that I would receive it. The lastest info I was given was that the unit was not adequately burned in.Maybe this is true, but these people have been holding my money for three weeks.Before I left for Comdex I told them to send my money back.They didn't.I told them today that I was disgusted and to send the money back. I also asked them to send the unit to me COD when it was ready then I was told that the price would be $2990 under those conditions. BEWARE OF THESE PEOPLE!!! This was supposed to be an introductory price.Today, I don't have reason to believe that they are anything but B.S.At the very least they don't have the common sense to tell you up front that they can't even guess at a shipping date.At the very worst I'll never see the unit or my money. I was told that they did a production run of 80,000 units.They cant send me one? Spread the word around BE CAREFUL !!! I was told that they would send the unit within two days.They have MY money and they are doing just what they want.I hope they aren't doing this to a lot of people,but then maybe they don't care,maybe they do.If I had their product and they didn't have MY money they would be all over me with lawyers.How come I don't get any respect from them.(Forget the respect,send me the unit as promised). They used an emotional sell on me.They even made arrangements to pick up my certified check by Overnight courier.It is and has always been a very unethical business practice to induce performance in a sales contract by one party without equally swift performane by the other party. I am real PO'd at them. Even if I do get the unit I will never forget SHOMI CORPORATION. Dennis
