Ladies and Gentlemen:

Begin with a clear description of the problem. The Ranger Personal Digital Assistant in the attached package does not function correctly any time the number 8 is used.  This problem is consistent in the calculator, the calendar, and contact database.
 
Assume that your reader will help, and explain the problem as completely as possible. As the enclosed sales slip shows, I purchased the Ranger PDA at Dyers here in San Diego just two weeks ago, and the store manager gave me your address for warranty work. 

Note that in calculator mode, a simple problem containing the number 8, such as 2 X 8, can result in an answer as low as 9 or as high as 108.  In the calendar mode, all the dates show as ?, and in the contact database, the Ranger  substitutes numbers randomly for 8 in phone numbers and addresses.
 

Close by asking for what you want.  When you need it by a certain date, say so. As I am in sales and on the road much of the time, I need a reliable PDA every day.  For this reason, I would appreciate receiving a prompt replacement.
Sincerely,
 
 


Barbara Peterson
