You're not answering the questions, but rather reply with a ridiculous testimony of some random person (even if it's true, it's one data point).

No need to email errors, you can AJAX it to whatever event tracking/aggregating system you prefer. I love Splunk (which is pretty expensive too for large projects), but there are open source alternatives.

The pricing is insane. I just looked at one of the projects I worked on, at 300 req/sec, this will cost $1080 per hour or $25K/day (if I didn't mess up the math). Seriously, who is rich enough to pay that much?

I doubt your "higher quality" product claim. Most photo printers today use pretty much the same machines, give you many paper options. "Much better experience" is just a speculation. You are a premium product indeed, price-wise.

Even after today's surge (+75%), its market capitalization is $6.11B. Yesterday's market cap: $3.5B. Why would HP pay 3X its market value?

I really would love to see this work, but I have very very strong doubts. I hope you've done your market research, and aren't wasting time creating this website. I've done scientific research, got published, so I saw this process first hand

I have pretty much the opposite experience with USPS. Got almost no spam, maybe 10-20% of my mail, mostly sent by local businesses and free local newspapers. It's not a monopoly. Forgot about UPS, DHL and FedEx? Their employees are usually
