After re-reading your post it's apparent that you're calling Newspond out for their 'over the top' positioning. I thought you were being tongue in cheek but I think that you're justified to point out the bravado risk. In the old days hyped up statements were needed to get attention from mainstream media but with today's era of journalist bloggers hyping can kill you. Thanks Mike I just posted an update.
