Press release certainly sounds good! If they can't sell this and make a profit on it then I give up on electronic commerce. If this isn't snapped up by a very large number of at least mid sized companies all over the country to do business better with their trading partners then there has to be some other component in the equation that I don't know about!

Maybe they feel more comfortable going to their IBM dealer for an EDI solution or something like that. Maybe many of them will go to a competitor, like an Open Market. Absent that, if they don't get on the EDI bandwagon with something very much like this product, they are going to be at a competitive disadvantage.

This is not something that has a lot of promise going for it for years on end. It is so good that every business has to do everything it can to get involved... or get left out.
