I co-sign Ice Cube, I’ve had exactly the same experience; ordered in January, had to chase them up a month later, then again a month and a half after that to be told the goods would be shipped the next week. Guess what?....STILL no PodShield II…

I don’t disagree with ice cube & air Adam that the unit has been on back order since January, but we did not make excuses. We have informed all of our customers that the unit is backed order and we gave everyone the opportunity to purchase the iShield I as an alternative at the same price as the iShield II or refund their money back until we can fulfill the order, and we have also posted on our website that we are going to ship it free freight and credit back the freight amount to all who keep their order had to wait for their iShield I.
