Argos - Tut
-
The day after Apple invited the press to one of its 'special events' and the whole world took this to mean the iPad 3 was on its way, in the newspaper 'i' or perhaps the evening standard Argos ran a full page advert for the iPad 2. Maybe other papers too, but these are the ones I read. One can only imagine they've got large stockpiles of these things which they'd like to shift at the same price as the newer, better version which would become available a couple of weeks later at the same price. So, any poor sod who acted on that advert (and I think we can assume they would probably financially stretch themselves to get one of these things if they hadn't one already) would find themselves with a legacy item two weeks later. A clear example of a company not giving a stuff about its customers, IMO.

My wife says she like Argos, personally I think many of the Greek Isles are pleasant.

As far as customers don't have a gun pointing to the head to buy that things... Why to have only one time benefits, when you can have more?
Regards. -------- M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I'm trying to decide whether to do Greece for my summer holidays this year actually. One of my favourite spots in the world, although it looks a bit rough on the news these days, plus I might get mistaken for a German and lynched.

Or could it simply be that the people at Argos don't keep their finger on tech news, therefore didn't realise The Great Fruity One where going to release a new iSlab?
