Well, this IS a tough one to crack. On one hand...
I live in Paris, and I found an address provided on the site. I'll take a look around there and if I find anything Ill speak to the owner. If it's a real address I doubt it's a scam the owner wouldn't give everyone his address so they "know where he lives".

Its under about and contact us.
Also, if you'll notice 99.99% of scams involve poor spelling and grammar, which this site does not entail of
They also use an escrow service which is hard, but not impossible to scam against.
BUT!!!!!(Wall Street
On the other hand theyve made very stupid mistakes. And I mean VERY

, Vice President of Engineering, Co-designer of the NewDigitalElectronic technology, Howard is the company's technical leader, architecting and overseeing the implementation of NewDigitalElectronic's software. His nearly 20 years of experience in professional software development includes: director of engineering at Personify (see above), where he shipped several enterprise-software products on multiple platforms; architect and director of engineering at Saurus, a group-scheduling and contact-management software company that was acquired by Sun Microsystems; architect of cross-platform development tools at Pillar, a financial-applications software company that was acquired by Hyperion; and software-engineering positions in Hewlett-Packard's operating-systems group and Software Publishing's Harvard Graphics group.
They just nice copied and pasted this from somewhere without even looking! Ken becomes Steve, Paula -> Howard. lol, they could have at least cleaned up the names etc. Sloppy job, this and so many other little errors others have pointed out. Besides that wtf is this bio talking about? In t he first they don't even change ExactChoice to NDE, and in the second they change but in both they aren't even talking about NDE. NDE, if it exists, is a RETAIL company, not software or whatever they are trying to say up there lol.
NDE is a retail company lol, they don't make software
Conclusion:
I'm about 99% sure its a scammer, but I'll go to the address they give see whats lurking around then get back to you. If I find something credible at the address they give, I have some money to blow so ill go ahead and give buying something a shot.
All the company info is under "About Us " in "Company"

Fake escrow services that look genuine mainly. I have seen a few people scamming against genuine escrow services though. Not sure how, but its been done. Nothing is 100% safe.

To everyone concerned.
First, I leave in Paris at the moment. The address is incorrect. Zip code (31000) is NOT a Paris.., ALEE Jean Jaures does NOT exist in this city, only Avenue Jean Jaues does… Geographically, on the map provided on their site
http://www.new-digital-electronic.com/index.php is a Gare Montparnasse – a railway station…
Their contact phone # (24/7) in Spain by the way is disconnected…
Anyway, I went and checked at the both possible addresses this morning…
What a Surprise… One is a railway station and another one is shady area in the 19 district of Paris.
Will call the French authorities in a few minutes…
Stay away from this site…
