    Reason #88 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I just started my subscription to your magazine, but I have already seen great potential with some of the features of the Web Site. I sell high-end home theatre equipment and being able to pull up past and current reviews helps me relate to my customer’s needs a lot better. I like to be as knowledgeable as possible with today's technologies, and Widescreen Review really has the potential to help me do that. I am looking forward to getting my first issue soon.
