I like it, except that beta/Beta is inconsistently capitalized, and the
are some spelling errors.

One request, though: If you include allusions to benchmark results,
please provide a link to the source.  You don't have to include it in
the announcement that is sent out, but keep it somewhere for those who
will have to answer questions to the press or the public about this.
