You might want to give him a little more time than that... a day and a half isn't that long, since he probably has things to do other than read email and has already given his subordinate a kick in the rear. Especially since it sounds like there's nothing new to tell you - the suppliers will get them the cards when the suppliers get them the cards. It's a fine line, when to try to bludgeon a company with publicity. You don't want to overdo it. -- Todd
