Hello, Over the past couple days I have engaged a discussion on several lists concerning the price of adaptive technology. There are varying views on whether or not these prices are fair, and there appears to be interest in creating a campaign to address the issue. If you are interested in lending your views or your support, please e-mail me at the address below. This would be preferable to a prolonged discussion across multiple lists. Please e-mail anyone you feel would be interested in participating, and please especially help us find representatives from the leading adaptive technology companies. We are not interested in creating a landscape of corporations versus consumers. At this time there is no evidence suggesting adaptive technology companies are not willing to discuss our concerns, and preliminary feedback on the issue mostly agrees that we should find a plan that takes into account the real cost of production and the impact to a consumer's personal finances. We do not know if the answer lies in lower prices, payment plans or philanthropic programs to help offset the cost of this technology, but we will not find answers if we do not hear from you.
If you are interested in participating in a working group, please e-mail me at: [email protected] Thank you in advance, Joe Orozco "A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd."--Max Lucado __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4836 (20100204) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4836 (20100204) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
