What, I'm not allowed to be hard working and diligent in my employment responsibilities? I am insanely busy this week and I don't have time to make a phone like this. It happens.

As far as local goes ... URC's Canadian distribution is brutal and, on principle, there should be absolutely no discrimination towards an online purchase.

However, I did hear back from URC today. The remote shipped on the 13th and should be delivered later today. I had asked that they contact me before shipping so that I could specify work or home address based on my work schedule and I may miss the UPS guy because of it ... but all in all, three weeks total turnaround is better than it was looking.
