,
You don't know me, but a week or so ago you talked on the phone with a
unit deployed out in Iraq. They were trying to find a place to purchase
your 109/209 series LOS Transmitters. They found out about this product,
because I referred them to you. My father back in the states found your
product originally at his local MicroCenter in Atlanta GA. It was the
only product of its kind that he had found. It was a unique solution to
help me bring distant internet drops that are out of reach of land line
access. Most of our post is still being developed (location witheld
) and getting internet is extremely difficult out
here. You can imagine the desire for troops to want to communicate more
freely with their families back home. I work in one of the
communications units out here and was originally stationed out of Fort
Hood TX. Before I joined the military, I owned my own computer
consulting and web design firm out of Atlanta GA. Not only have I been
thoroughly pleased with the performance of your product. It has not only
met the specifications and promises on the box, but it has far surpassed
my wildest dreams. It claims to be able to transmit up to 5000ft and I
have personally done a shot more than 6000ft reliably. I can't say that
I could be happier. Your product alone has enabled countless soldiers in
my unit to be able to chat, im, send pictures through email, and
generally communicate better with their wives, parents, and children.
After word got around that I had found a way to get the internet to my
site, I have had several other units come to me asking how they can do
the same. You have already spoken with one of those units, and I believe
that you sent them your product free of charge. When I heard that, my
respect and awe was unparalleled. I can't say how proud I am that you
have done such a selfless act of support for troops deployed here. It
makes everything we do over here worth it knowing that we are doing it
for people and business like yours. I wish I could do more to repay your
kindness. If there is any kind of testimonial I can send you, please do
not hesitate to ask. The other reason I am writing you is that I
understand that MicroCenter is discontinuing your product line and I am
very dissappointed. If there is anyway possible, I would appreciate any
information you can send me, so that I may refer and direct other units
here on post to purchase your product. I can assure you there is some
demand and would like to give them the most correct and up to date
information possible.
Thank you so much for everything,
