I'm about to buy a 17" prompter from Electronic Script Prompting. electronic.com

That said, before such a big purchase, I'd love to know if it's a good company to buy from. I've found no review online. Anyone have an experience or opinion to share?

Around here, we like to support DVInfo sponsors when we can as they are all "hand selected" by Chris Hurd to ensure the highest quality of customer service and satisfaction.

is there a list of sponsors anywhere? id be down with using that as a metric for figuring what is a quality company

The Sponsors Page isn't hard to find. The link is at the top of the page. But here's an embedded, direct link. (http://www.dvinfo.net/sponsors/)

touche. i feel dumb......

No worries. In looking at my reply again, it reads a little snarky so I apologize for that.

Our sponsors keep the lights on at DVinfo and no kidding, Chris really does check out each one and usually, if not always, personally meets with a rep/owner before he will do business with them, so we try definitely encourage folks to make a sponsor their first stop when shopping.
