Why does it "cost" the lowly technician to see a commercial enterprise install a product for which they wish to charge us money, and the bee is on them to establish credibility? Kind of like Chevy has a new car which should just take over the market, so if we will pay $100 bucks we can see this car on which they've invested a lot to bet we'd buy it. Seems they ought to be giving US feebies like candy bars and drinks and dancing girls and big band music to entice us to be enticed by this product.......

Hello all! It only recently occurred to me, that the nagging questions I have about the whole "Wapin" thing ( WWW.WAPIN.COM ) would be easily answered, if I could witness an actual installation, with the opportunity to check out the subject piano before and after. So that's what we've done; invited veteran Wapin installer Tim Geinert to Brandon University, Monday, November 13th and Tuesday, November 14th, 2006 to prove the enticing claims firsthand! And since he first agreed, we've upped the ante from a 5'8" Mason & Hamlin, to a 9-foot Baldwin Concert Grand... no pressure Tim! Though we've given locals first chance at a seat on the very limited "jury," we've also reserved a few seats for fellow CAUTs and technicians outside our area, who simply "need" to be a part of this remarkable experience. If this means "you," better reply now, you've have ten days to make plans! Registration is a paltry $100.00 US, first-come/first-served (see below) Sorry I will only be able to reply to APPLICATION INQUIRIES, likely until well after the 14th. I hope you understand. Look forward to seeing all who can attend. best regards, Mark Cramer, Brandon University Brief Details: 1.)
