Company is real, but only references are PR, or 1st person. Gaijin42 (talk) 21:00, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete - I believe this article qualifies for WP:G11.  Without the G11, this would be a Keep as the subject is notable.  TechCrunch wrote an article covering the topic in 2008.  Small Business Computing also wrote an article about the company.  PCMag also published a piece about the company.  Additionally, SFGate (The San Francisco Chronicle) also found one of their press releases important enough to republish in their newspaper.  I'm aware it's a PR piece but it indicates that an independent and reliable source found them important.  What they printed is irrelevant.  A Google News Archive search produces 297 hits but over 90% of those are press releases.  I went through page 10 to find the references above.  There may be more (but there also may not be).
