Hi levy - my take of product release PR in general is that it is used for strategic and/or tactical reasons. To begin with, it does not necessarily impact the co materially [unless it is a busted product!] So, a lot of companies simply use it 1) to hurt competitors [especially the vapor ware type of product announcement;] 2) to maintain the momentum; 3) to fill space or 4) to divert attn, amongst other possibilities.

Btw, misdemeaner aside, is Ms Hanson a reasonably effective PR person? Does she work for INSP or its PR firm? As an investor of the co, should I be concerned about her presence? TIA

best, Bosco
