Hello all, To add my 2 cents, at geoCommunity we are always glad to post a product review/comparison provided to us by a third party. We'll even post "features" directly from the company themselves... see this example on "The Benefits of Topology in the Database" http://spatialnews.geocomm.com/features/laserscan2/
Hint... this is a great way to get your word out about something rather than disguising your message as a news release!
Notice the author, he's from Laser-Scan.. no deception here, he's clearly from the agency that is providing the article. The readers can make their opinions and we gladly provide a forum where people can comment or provide feedback (like this list, discussion boards, or even letters to the editor).
Myself I tend to shy away from detailed product reviews lately for a number of reasons, they are very time consuming and I have very little time for this extra workload, and mostly because I am constantly flooded with requests for reviews. On the other hand, if a company (even Manifold) wishes to suggest a third party reviewer or if a member of the community wishes to offer up a "quik take" I'll be glad to post the piece for all to see... be prepared for feedback from the community though!
Any third party, writer, college prof. etc... that is willing to conduct a product review is encouraged to contact me directly and I'll be glad to help in any way I can.
Cheers Glenn
