jdm, I understand it should have been correct the first time, but mistakes do happen. They are working to correct the mistake and have given me a solution in the mean time.

Re: OT: overweight-man-kicked-off-southwest-flight
Kiralynx, Everything you state is probably true. I am not talking about your personal stories or the fact that obese people are treated like crap. I don't know, but if I had to guess I would say yes. I have personally seen obese people treated like crap, not at the doctors office but in many other p...

Re: New unit or did I get ripped off?
Not sure about 9.02 to 9.07, but I have heard there are skew issue with 6.02. Besides that I am not sure there is a big difference in the firmware versions.

So it took through the weekend, but I did receive an email from 1800cpap and I called them this morning. They are sending me out a new unit to arrive my Thursday the latest and I can use the one I have until then. I would give them a B for service, not perfect but they did the correct thing. Just an...

Re: New unit or did I get ripped off?
So still not call back, I don't mind posting now.
I used 1800cpap.com
I forgot to look up reviews for companies before ordering, this was my mistake.

Re: OT: overweight-man-kicked-off-southwest-flight
Umm, tring to be understanding. Did you not read my above post. It defines what it is. I don't the exact percentage you can easily do a google search and find out the exact percentage for obese. <- not sure if I spelled that correctly.
Otherwise I take it your just being a smart ass.

Re: OT: overweight-man-kicked-off-southwest-flight
so overweight, I should have said Obese. There are definitions of percentage over the normal for body build, height and sex what average range of weights are. So if you are X percent over that you are obese. Now this works for most people but not all, but here we are talking statistics so its applies.

Re: New unit or did I get ripped off?
So I used a credit card for purchase. I called and I was told I would receive a call back. Once they return my call and offer a solution I will post the name of the vendor. I think it only fair to allow they to fix the situation first. I am thinking I should use it tonight but don't want to void any...

Re: New unit or did I get ripped off?
I am in talks with my online retailer. I will update with detail and how my experience went after I give them time to set things right. I do not want to be to hard on them until I give them a chance to fix the issue. My purchase online regardless of what my insurance company allows was for a new mac...
