Hi,

A lot of Orthodox Jews don’t have computers or very limited access. If
this device gave them the email communication they wanted/needed without
the computer with very limited costs, you would have great success with
this market.

I haven’t been Orthodox all of my life which is why I still use the
internet and watch TV sometimes. If you need a liason to help you
explore these ideas and others, lets speak further.

1. “Chad” and “David”
   Did u take a survey of Orthodox Jews and computer ownership? Cell phone ownership? I’d like to c your survey. These emails are antiSemitic. Jews are like everyone else…some have computers, laptops, cell phones,etc. As for intrigue…many people of all walks of life r intrigued by new gadgets…Are Orthodox Jews not smart enough to use Blackberrys or are they too cheap to buy one? Errrrr…It’s “great” to c that antiSemitism is alive and well.

2. Huh? He didn’t say “all Jews.” He said, “a lot of them” in his own community. HIS community. He’s Jewish, dude! Is he an anti-semetic Orthodox Jew?
