At this point, we are not planning on setting up a demo site.

We have built a features server that includes some documentation, and some tutorial screencasts.

Without seeing a demo, I am far less likely to download everything, set it up and spend hours monkeying around with it to make it work.

But If clicked around a demo site and got excited ....

The screencasts provide a good overview of what working in VoiceBox looks like.

This screencast runs about ten minutes, and covers installing the site and making some modifications after the initial install.

This page contains 4 additional screencasts that cover customizing your site, importing content, and creating user accounts - these videos run about 25 minutes, total.

RE: "spend hours monkeying around" - hey! That's our job!

Now where'd I put my digging stick...

I want a demo too - especially now that I'm getting a wacky error on the "Verify Requirements" step of installation:

Fileinfo could not load the magic file. It could be corrupted. Try reinstalling the magic file distributed with the MimeDetect module. (Currently using Mime type detection PHP Fileinfo Extension)

The "Magic File" message is a documented issue with MimeDetect: http://drupal.org/node/306217 - this link contains the description, and the fix.

This has also been reported and answered in the VoiceBox queue: http://drupal.org/node/927020

This issue is also identified in the VoiceBox FAQs: http://code.funnymonkey.com/faq/error-fileinfo-could-not-load-magic-file...
