I don't have a review section, but rather, there is a section that
mentions products recommended for "getting started". The product in
question (that I couldn't get a freebie), belongs here and it would be a
disservice to the readers to omit it. On the other hand, I can't provide
too much information since I have no experience first hand.

Now this I like - it makes sense. It tells the reader about the product,
but at the same time tells them that the manufacturer is a cheapskate
;-).

Of all of Larry's suggestions, this is clearly the best :-)
