Roman,
Ironcallly I have had great luck with a 5300. I bought the high end
5300 (cse?) for $25. I was working for a service company that had to
take it back and refused to send it to Apple for the repair. It was
going to be tossed out with the broken plastic screen.
I bought the 5300 becasue the $$$ guy wanted to have it off the books.
I then quit the company went back to school. And then Apple had the
exteneded repaiar policy. I had it repaired twice under the program. I
then sold the 5300 for a good price, Bought a 3400 then onto the pismos
and Tibooks,
SO I like the 5300 though I would never buy one again.
Charles
