As a registered JMan owner, I'd like to throw my two cents into this.
 
Having to buy JMan directly from Hash was no problem.  I had no
reservations about it at all.  The $500 pricetag wasn't too bad considering
that's about how much someone would spend on something like Sculpt/Animate
4D or 3D Professional...I've used both, and wouldn't own either.
 
Even though Hash doesn't advertise, finding out about JMan wasn't
difficult.  The magazine's dropped hints every-now-and-again, and I was
able to get the transcript to a PLink conference on 24bit hardware and
software.  In other words, the information is out there.
 
I more than understand the problems with dealers and distributors, since I
worked at a local Ami shop for more than a year.
 
And Hash also made it easy.  They're happy to talk to you on the phone,
unlike what I and a client of mine have experienced on the phone from the
staff of another rendering package, which I won't name at this time. 
They're more than happy to talk with you about the product ($500 isn't to
be taken lightly).  And when you have problems, they do their best to
resolve them.
 
More than likely, the dealers are ticked because people are buzzing about
the product, but they know they aren't going to make didly on it, which is
typical.
