Then with all due respect, they should do something that includes all their customer base. Or simply do nothing at all. This is the sort of thing that will get any company bad press and rightly so. There is more than just the United States on this list. Also there is more than the United States on the customer base. It is about time that was taken into account.

Hi Neville,

I sympathize with your hurt feelings, but I think it is important to
realize that the offer of a gift no doubt came from Amazon in the U.S., and AI Squared simply passed it on to their U.S. customers. To suggest that AI
Squared intentionally sought to exclude anyone is unfair.  You have to
chalk it up to the internal workings of the U.S. Amazon advertising
department.  This is my best assessment of the situation.

With respect,

Rod

Hi Listers,
I take exception to the below message for the following reasons.

The message begins:
At Ai Squared, it's our pleasure to extend rewards to loyal customers
like you.

But then goes on to say:
(Note: You must reside in the United States).

Well, I don't reside in the US but have had a retail version of WEa for
around 20 years and currently have some unused SMA's also.  I have no
idea how much has been spent on updates, SMA's and voices over the time
but no doubt, a considerable amount.

 but, because I don't live in the US, I am not eligible to enter the
competition which deals with a Company that sells on the net anyway.

What percentage of GW Micro's income has been obtained from overseas
buyers over the years is impossible for me to know.  But, no doubt there
are more blind people living in the rest of the World than currently
live in the US.

However, the real annoyance comes from the fact that someone who has
recently downloaded a free copy of WE under the Microsoft Office
arrangement and lives in the US is eligible to enter.  Unlike those of
us who live elsewhere in the World and have contributed much to GW
Micro's income over the years.

It is realised that the competition prize is not all that generous but
to me, it is the principle of it.

What do other overseas retail owners of WE think or am I just being too
sensitive?
Neville.
