For the future when such channels become more readily available.

I'm joking but some companies do this. Who would you supply first: someone who's going to say great things about your product on social media and potentially increase your sales and someone who's going to be critical on social media and damage sales?

That wouldn't be difficult. Note the use of the word "Our". As in so much advertising the consumer misses the significance of that little word and thinks the box or whatever it is is THE best.

It remains to be seen what our members here think of it in actual combat as opposed to an optimised presentation from what might be a specially souped up piece of hardware.
