<<Isn't there a danger that the audience is so turned off by the quality of this stuff that by the time the technology catches up an alternative will have captured the need? >>

In 1993, I took a class on Internet at local U and was introduced to ftp protocol, pine, and all the other systems of info transfer, veronica search, archie... Netscape did not yet exist, but at the end of the class, we got to see Mosaic... (the World Wide Web.)

IT WAS TOO SLOW. I said it would never catch on. Duh.

Sounds like what we're hearing here a bit. But first is best, even if not perfect...

It will happen, it will come along. Watch. People are looking at the Possibilities... not the product.
