At least Shiva sent me junk mail via UPS second day letters. They sent me
two of these in the same week, and the UPS guy estimated they cost Shiva
about $5. These didn't cost me a dime unlike email. I have to laugh at
companies that resort to express letters to sell products.

Livingston is great as far as marketing goes. No email, and the only
postal mail I've recieved is two PM3 postcards.

I think Ascend finally gave up on me. I used to get about 5 calls a week
from different sales people. I also recieved at least one piece of postal
mail a week, always sent to like 5 different spellings of my name. Alos,
they would fax me something at least twice a week, but we'd get 5 copies
of each fax.
