Just got off the phone with Olympus.

The bill to repair my E-300, flat rate, is $310 plus 6% tax which
brings it to $328.60!!

Damn.

So much for that camera.

You think camera repair people should work for wal-mart wages?

No - I don't expect that.

I do expect a reasonable rate to replace the viewfinder glass and
upload the latest software.

It seems to me that 2/3s of the cost of the camera new (as of 2 1/2
years ago) is a bit excessive.
