I don't know what the deal is with jott, I guess I speak too clearly in my "northern accent" for it to understand me. Maybe I should slur a bit. If I talk slow, the words turn out all crazy, if I talk faster it catches nothing.....
I'd call FedEx with a tracking number. When I built up my custom AMD X2 Brisbane core system, I found out I needed to redirect shipping because noone would be at home. Sent them to the office. Most of the packages were delivered there -- the last one, a case, pulled up when I got home after I called. The driver had found it and was going to deliver it later that day to the office, but after the office shipping/receiving dept had closed. He got called about it, and went back to my house. Mad props!
I hate when that happens. I almost lost my Nintendo DS that way. Also, when my Nokia N80 shipped, it arrived much earlier than I thought, on a Friday, and I almost had to wait all weekend to pick it up! Luckily they let me pick it up at the FedEx airport office on Friday evening. Whew, that was close. :)
I cry when I miss my Fed Ex...but thankfully he knows me and leaves my packages at the door. We live out in the middle of nowhere so no one will take it. As for Jott...I wish I could use it. I sound like Darth Vader on the Jott phone message.

Leo, thanks to you and Dr. Web, I've been using Jott.com. Works pretty good.

Me, too, TrafficMike. Jott has proven surprisingly useful.

Is jott compatible with mobile phones in Australia, & if you can't use the phone or SMS is it worth signing up for???
I use Stikkit is Jott better???

FedEx will deliver to wherever you are/want. Just call them...they are really good about that stuff.

Call them with the package number and tell them to hold it or redeliver it.
