Victor: I know that when the walkman came out, there was a lot of talk about how with really innovative products, it did not make sense to rely on people's reaction to the "idea". You had to get the product into their hands so they see if they liked it. I know that this was a big topic of conversation in the "innovation" world. But when they introduced the product to the market, I do not remember any buzz about launching it without advertising. That is a different issue. That is all I know Victor.
