That intro video is about 30 seconds too long, and it needs a voice over rather than the annoying typing sound.

My voice tests as 'bloody awful' and the video needs to work in the office with the sound off...

I'm not saying you can't use the in-video text, but the keyboard clicking nearly made me turn the video off, not just the noise.

You can get someone fairly professional to do a voice over here: http://voice123.com/

I've used the service before and the quality of people I got was very good. For a 30s clip you can get someone pretty good for about $100-$200

Cheers, I'll check it out.
