Very Funny - I am laughing all the way.

Relying on DD by referring to the company website is like asking a car thief to hold your keys while you jump into a swimming pool.

I have been asking myself - 'What is Glassware 2.0 all about?', but I keep finding holes in the dam of evidence that is presented here.

For Full disclosure, I have been buying HPTO instead of this one.

(1) Glassware 2.0 has two videos on Youtube from 2012. Less than 500 people have viewed those videos in 2 years. In comparison, HPTO has nearly 25,000 views of their new iPad software for Microsoft Office in the last month.

(2) Sphere 3D has 2 patents that support their unique technology, while HPTO has over 50 patents and patent applications that date back over 10 years. HPTO states they have 150 patents, but those patents may be Foreign patents or under other company names.

(3) HPTO has prior business software that has been competing against Microsoft Terminal Server and Citrix solutions for over 10 years, while Sphere 3D has no software. While they have a Beta software that I haven't tried, I can't find anyone who has used the software and expressed their experience with the Corel Office Beta software.

(4) I reviewed the Glassware 2.0 videos online. However, the real display of software functions within the video is very limited - flipping the iPad around does not count as functionality to me. I estimate about 30% of a short video actually shows the Glassware 2.0 software screen. Hmmm. Where are 2013 videos if the software is ready.

I am puzzled how Sphere3D intends to develop innovative solutions that compete in an arena where all the competitors have patents that block their path.
