Good to see that my investment in a Courier was exactly that. I will be
buying another Courier when I add another line next year. As for upgrading
the ROM in my USR, I won't be doing that until I see evidence of the new
code's stability.

If the upgrade goes horribly wrong for Courier owners, I don't want to find
out the hard way.
