I have been led to their website too by an email and have looked at
the RIP - actually I wanted to ask the question about the RIP one of
these days. 

Being german I could actually translate the article, just not right
now because too much work. Basically it sounds like a self- promotion
of the RIP - very promising description, but this doesn't mean
anything of course. 
Essentially it says 
1. the cheapest RIP on the market 
2. Shareware fee in case of full satisfaction experience - 100SFR must
be about 65USD or so. 
3. Equal or better results (surprise surprise!!!) than the Imageprint
and other well- known pro RIPs. 
4. No metamerism because only useage of black and light black, and
very few color inks, probably for toning. 
5. Ready profiles, from cool to full sepia. 

etc etc. Nothing surprising. One can order a sample print 20x30cm on
30x40cm Hahnemuehle paper.

All in all almost too cheap to not try it out for someone who is on UC
Epson inks. I am not at the moment so it is of no use for me.

Maybe I will again if I will have a 7600 later this year.

regards, Bernie
