Congrats on the amazon.com/xo relaunch!
The XO picture at amazon.com/xo links to
http://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=1243369011 and that has several
garbled characters in place of apostrophes and some other punctuation, e.g.
Children are consigned to poverty and isolation[\0x1a]just like their
parents[\0x1a]never knowing
On Windows XP, MSIE 7 displays a box, Firefox 3.1 display its "unknown
glyph" 001A box, while Chrome just leaves out the apostrophe or dash.
0x001A is ASCII Ctrl-Z so I'm not sure what's going on. I couldn't find
an encoding in Firefox where it worked.
Also, near the end it says
please visit laptop.org.
laptop.org is green (and so is the period/full stop), but it's not a
hyperlink. For grins, here's the HTML :-) :)
please visit </font><font color="#494949" face="Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif" size="2"><font color="#54b948" face="Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif" size="2">laptop.org.</font></font>
