But the only method they go on to describe is Simple Entry. They don't mention the many advantages of Speedy. Are they pretending it doesn't exist? Are they downplaying it in order to fold it into Simple Entry? Are their marketing people (i.e., the people who write the promotional copy) just ignorant of the fact that Speedy exists and is very important to a crucial portion of their user base? -- David W.
