Matt,

thanks for your info, it cleared up a lot.

I am familiar with MSI products and can assure others from experience that
they are a good company.

any chance of creating a software-only product for white-box hardware? While
copy-protection would be a challenge to implement, surely there would be
enough of a demand. the market is screaming for a non-subscription,
realistic price control panel solution.

also, aside from the current ruminations of a Cobalt implosion, can we hear
your pitch of cost/feature benefits over a Raq?

finally, I think what threw people off a bit is that the voice-capable setup
sounded like a "hype" feature rather than a solid one like a per-user
multi-lingual interface (with Asian character sets). what is the
productivity/performance benefit of a voice-based setup? How does it make
money for me?

:)
