is wireless mature yet

cdn_bcn · 2005-08-24T02:13:57+00:00

Having reviewed as much as I could take in from 4 years of posts thanks to Google -- and -- R.Campbell, excellent web site ... is there any chance that you experts would consider the GE Simon3 to be a 'real' security system? In particular, is there some way they can justify having the panel/keypad in one unit which I would imagine could be easily 'incompacitated'?Unfortunately, wireless would be most easily facilitated in our place -- finished basement. I'm willing to rip into the ceiling and under trim if absolutely necessary but would rather not. Is wireless technology mature enough to use yet -- reliably? Have you put in a Paradox or DSC wireless (it appears they do sell such a thing) -- results? Is there a top-of-the-line 'wireless' solution? Replacing batteries is a non-issue (i.e. a minor annoyance as long as it isn't monthly or something); reliability is.Thanks in advance and regards ...

However, with your record of killing people, being a convicted felon for a gun crime, going real life with people on the Internet, there's no telling WHAT you might do to someone who bought from you; an inept, out of touch fat pig, who, with your obvious lack of self discipline, might even go to your customers house and assult them, if you decided you didn't like them.

Yeah, with a record like that, I'm sure you're the one that should be sought out for advice and on who to do business with.

Isn't it a shame that you can't refute any of the above accusations?

You're a deviant misfit, who can't fit in anywhere. Not even in your clothes. Tut, tut. You're a fat undisciplined,arrogant, ignorant pig.

That depends on which pro does the job. If it's Bob Campbell you will own the system. If it's Jiminex you will own it but he won't let you control it. If it's Olson there won't be a system since he doesn't install anything. If you buy it from Milford, you don't really want it anyway. If you get it from me you own it but you also get to install it.

Both "Bob C." and Jim (along with every other professional installer that posts here) restricts access to installer level programming. Bob uses Paradox. Jim likes Napco. Jim has a whole lot of experience installing systems in yachts. As soon as I get a rain cover for my dinghy, I'm gonna give him a call!

Wrong. You'd have to pick up your system from the counter. And I never forget to ask: "Do you want an apple pie with that"?

Why?? In all the years I've been reading this Newsgroup, I've never seen a single complaint posted about Tom... Except of course from you.

You forgot to mention that if a person buys from you, they'd have to get technical support in this group as you don't answer your phone or emails. They'd also find sending anything back for credit extremely difficult let alone having a shipping error corrected. Ysk!!!
