Cincinnati Microwave Inc. in Chapter 11

[DeWitt Harrison <de@aztek.com>]

My Escort radar detector (Passport 4500) has recently gone
on the blink so to speak. I called CMI's service department only
to be told the company has filed for Chapter 11 (under the
bankruptcy laws) and that all service techs have been shown
the door. No can fixum products right now. So sorry.

I was also told there were a couple of buy out/rescue offers
floating around that could preserve CMI but that I shouldn't
bother to call the service dept. until mid-May or so. If
you are contemplating a radar detector, I suggest staying
away from the Escort stuff  just now.

BTW, I know many on the list would choose a different
manufacturer anyway, but I've been very happy with
it for the last couple of years. Time to move on maybe.
