purchase price paid by Customer for any defective software product, or to replace any defective media with software which substantially conforms to applicable 3Com published specifications. 3Com makes no warranty or representation that its software products will meet Customer's requirements or will work in combination with any hardware or applications software products provided by third parties, that the operation of the software products will be uninterrupted or error free, or that all defects in the software products will be corrected. YEAR 2000 WARRANTY: In addition to the Hardware Warranty and Software Warranty stated above, 3Com warrants that the following date-data sensitive Palm Computing® products, namely the Pilot 1000, Pilot 5000, PalmPilot™ Personal Edition, PalmPilot Professional Edition, Palm III™, and Palm VII™ connected organizers, as well as all other 3Com products based on the Palm Computing platform software as of July 1, 1998 and later, including the companion desktop software for Microsoft® Windows® and MAC OS™ platforms, will continue performing properly with regard to such date-data on and after January 1, 2000, provided that all other products used by Customer in connection or combination with the Palm Computing product, including hardware, software, and firmware, accurately exchange date-data with the Palm Computing product. 3Com makes no certification regarding the Year 2000 status of any other Palm Computing products. Any Palm Computing platform application supplied by 3Com that makes correct use of Palm Computing platform date and time functions will not have a problem transitioning to the year 2000. The date and time utilities for the Palm Computing platform use 32 bits to store seconds, starting at January 1, 1904. This approach allows the correct representation of dates up to 6:28:15 A.M. on February 6, 2040. Provided the product is still being sold by 3Com, 3Com will make software enhancements to remove this limitation to the Palm Computing platform well in advance of this date. If it appears that any Palm Computing product does not perform properly with regard to such date-data on and after January 1, 2000, and Customer notifies Palm Computing before the later of April 1, 2000, or ninety (90) days after original purchase of the product from 3Com or its authorized reseller, 3Com shall, at its option and expense, provide a software update which would effect the proper performance of the product, repair the product, deliver to Customer an equivalent product to replace the product, or, if none of the foregoing is feasible, refund to Customer the purchase price paid for the product. Any software update or replaced or repaired Palm Computing product will carry a Year 2000 Limited Warranty for ninety (90) days after purchase or until April 1, 2000, whichever is later. Customers using date and time utilities other than those supplied by Palm Computing should check with the developer to determine if the software will correctly handle all of the subtle issues of date and time conversion. OBTAINING WARRANTY SERVICE: Customer must contact a Palm Computing, Inc. or 3Com Technical Support or Customer Service center within the applicable warranty period to obtain warranty service authorization. Dated proof of original purchase from 3Com or its authorized reseller will be required. 3Com is not responsible for Customer products or parts received without a warranty service authorization. In the United States, 3Com may ship a replacement product or part prior to receiving the original Page 274
