I agree with Shudo-san's comments, there are now quite a few more products out there (small and large). 

We had an independent acoustic engineer work with us on our nodes, and he did a lot of evaluation of the ClearOne and Polycom's, and he proposed the (ex-ASPI) Polycom EF2280 was a better choice for us. I'm very happy with them. I can ask him to document his thoughts, and submit that, if you like? 

Conversely, do we want to avoid doing competitive comparisons (not a good way to make friends with vendors), and just do a box-by-box overview of other products, and let readers make their own choices?

Cheers,
