Default Akamai Smart Home Design Website

Thought I'd better ask for a bit of crit on this before I get too far into the design...

Akamai - Smart Home Design

A few people have already seen it and gave me pointers but it's always nice to hear others first impressions on designs before it gets too far into the site build.

You need to change the cursor to a pointer on the nav. I'd also give the
  • s in the footer a display:block; It just makes them easier to click. I agree with Prewe as well re the dots. Rest is good though. Like it!

    The guy changed his mind. He didn't like how it looked. I guess it takes away from the text a little.

    Looks pretty good
    the only thing that bothers me is the font used for
    entertainment, automation and efficiency for your home...


    it looks very jagged.

    Yeah I'm thinking Trebuchet Italic is a little funny on some systems, might be a good idea to use plain Trebuchet

    design looks great toon, but it doesn't seem to validate in css or xhtml.
