ZOMM

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Small company (24 employees) whose only claim to fame is a few CES awards (though the links to those awards are broken). Nearly all of the references are from the ZOMM's site or press releases. Attempts to speedy and prod were disputed. OhNo itsJamie Talk 22:44, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment Three or four reviews after making a splash at CES in 2011. All of the other links are press releases. No significant coverage of the company by reliable sources.  Already looking like a technology footnote of the early 2010s. OhNo itsJamie  Talk 01:58, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
 *  Reply  - They are the "developer of the world’s first Wireless Leash™ for mobile phones". Additionally, the reviews have depth, independence, and meet WP:GNG.  Here is another long review that I found http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/03/28/review_gasget_zomm_/. --Jax 0677 (talk) 02:22, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete There is almsot nothing where merely being a finalist amounts to notability, and nothing else is claimed.  DGG ( talk ) 01:55, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Just routine coverage and press releases. Fails WP:CORP. § FreeRangeFrog croak 06:22, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
