Hi Steve
I did indeed have the same experience, the rep seemed to think this was 
going to be bigger than the Beatles.   He seemed confused that I didn't 
jump up and scream in joy.

If it works well, and the cost difference is nil, it could indeed be an 
improvement.  But it was explained to me as being a "bit" more expensive 
- which would negate some of the cost benefits - pay more up front, but 
I can store it at room temp.  Slight time savings in not having to let 
paste warm up after taking out out of the fridge.  OK, great - but the 
$$ have to work.

Anyway - I was promised a sample but have not yet seen it, I will ponder 
it more then.

regards,
