How to go about getting information from Creative...

[Joseph/Elizabeth Gutenkauf]

I am at the 4th company of my profession and one of the things I have
learned quite well are people skills. Concerning people skills, one needs
to address the party whom has the information he/she wants with politeness
and courtesy. After all, the party you are seeking information from will
keep themselves out of a question asked forcefully and with a commanding
tone by not responding or saying "I don't know".

For example if you want to ask Creative about new videocards in the U.S.,
try asking the question like this: "Creative, with the efforts you have put
into creating this newsboard, I was wondering if you give me some news of
your own by advising if there are going to be any new videocards made by you
and if you could, when, in the U.S.?"

If Creative does not respond, then you, still being polite and courteous,
can ask again sighting the time and date your original question was asked.
They will respond, just for the mere fact even if they aren't manufacturing
video cards in the U.S. anymore, they are still going to want you to by
their sound cards.

Very subtle way of telling them they suck...

Any chance of leaking the reason why the new GF2 GTS cards have lower spec
memory than advertised?
