Well, not being an established company with a product, a friend of mine and I
wanted to talk to someone at NeXt about getting one of these cubes for
designing a specific program. All we got was a secretary putting down our name.
Even after specifically requesting repeatedly to talk to someone, we were
informed that this was impossible.

That was about 3 months ago. We haven't heard from NeXt yet. Similarly, a
message to the only participant of NeXt on this net (Ali O.) was never even
replied to with a hint who we should contact.

Seems uncooperative to me... I wonder how you even started to talk to them.
Are you big enough so that NeXt would contact you?
