I persoanlly think that Robertb actual "text" is being misconstrued (in my opinion). Not his words, but simply his presentation. I bring this up to join with Basschicks's post about how reviews (and also posts) are read and understood.

"THIS is one for YOU!" as opposed to "This is the one for you!

The first sounds like he is yelling enthusiastically, while the second, he is only inflecting the words. CAPS may simply be the way he bolds the words.

I say this because when watching the video of him with the EZ Reader, he never came off as a wild, used-car salesman. He was a slow speaker, and inflected specific words. I highly doubt your personality will change that drastically from video to blog.

Robertb has decided to jump into a new media, which has new and different, and constantly changing rule system. I think it's better to err on the judgment that he used CAPS for bold, than to simply assume he was screaming at the top of his lungs.

My 2 cents.
