Interesting read, would be interested in finding out more detailed info on those polled, for instance "net shoppers", how did Juniper find out that they where net shoppers? And if they are net shoppers, what are there professions, I understand the mission here, but for example if those polled are web designers, particularly from the standards community, the poll numbers will be skewed.

What quality control measures where taken to insure that the people polled were a random sampling of people who shop online?
