Error in specs

Why oh why do they believe the errors that Oly USA distributes.

In the specs at newegg they say "3-Axis In-Body VCM Image Stabilization" when that is clearly wrong.

The E-PL6 is an E-PL5 with a few extras, and only has the lesser 2 axis stabilisation.

And Kodak refers to the IBIS in the S-1 as optical image stabilization.

It ain't easy being me, but someone's gotta do it.

Kodak themselves do say that it's OIS http://kodakpixpro.com/Americas/cameras/compactsystem/s-1.php

DPReview says that it is in-body stabilisation http://www.dpreview.com/previews/kodak-pixpro-s-1

I do suspect that Kodak themselves should know what is inside their cameras. But then, if Oly in USA can't get their specs right for the E-PL6 then anything is possible anywhere.
