Wow, I think it's a great idea, it might have helped me with some research I'm trying to do so I could see what is being offered in different parts of the world.
Great I think I'm getting somewhere. I also need to include a little compare and contrast, I was going to save that for the 12" line compared to the 3 3/4 offerings.
Some great ideas so far have been:
