True.

I believe them - and so do many others.

Hmm, sometimes, you _really- want what they are offering. I usually send them a
nasty e-mail.

Hmm, I think this might be a litte too elaborate. Maybe you should try Opera5
yourself to size up the competition...? :)

I know that a lot more is possible if you are technically inclined.
