Here's the imaginary "most likely" 3 act drama playing out in my head...
Act 1: Late 2012. Sigs shipping. Engineers enter HQ stage left: "bad news, we're finding the batteries splizz out when we try to charge them at 120". EM: "Can you fix it?" Engineers: "sure, but not the ones already shipped or produced." EM: "well, what works for those?" Engineers: "90 should be OK" EM:"OK, update to the new spec going forward, we'll figure something out for the customers we've shipped. It'll be 6 months (ed: 1 year in real time) before software and superchargers are at 120. We'll figure something out. Put that on the list of service issues." Customer Service: "Shall we tell them?" EM: "Hmm, they'll just get riled up when it makes no difference now anyway. We'll figure out something for them. Hold off."
Act 2: Late 2013. Cut to forum. Poster 1: "must of known", Poster 2: "maybe ignorant", Poster 3: "they're screwing us", Poster 4: "i'm ticked off!". Cut to HQ: "I guess we didn't figure that one out, what are our options?"
Act 3: Yet to be written.
Less malice than trying to roll with the punches and taking one occasionally. I hope it's a comedy and not a tragedy.
