There is apparently a moderate amount of confusion over the pronunciation. In the US it has always been NESS-LEE, while in the UK (and I assume, Australia) NESS-UL was common. It is a Swiss company, and since the Swiss (depending on the region) use two (at least) forms of German, along with French, perhaps that's the reason for some oddities. However, I have to go with that accent mark on the final "E," -- which makes me think that NESS-LEE is what the company wants....
