Well Steve, I'm not sure what to think about the article I wrote. All the
negative points I mentioned were true and researhed carefully. When I
talked to the editor, he thought that it was a very good article and would
appear in Amazing ASAP, but it was never printed. At the time, the company
was putting in half and full page ads in the magazine, so maybe financial
considerations were more important. Don't get me wrong, I think Amazing is
a fine magazine and they do publish reviews that are honest. It might be
that there were other reasons the article never appeared in print that I
was not aware of. It did turn me off to writing reviews because I was asked
to write it in the first place, spent a lot of time in researching the
product and why it wouldn't work properly, but got nothing out of it except
the experience.
John
