Hi :) Thanks for a much better level of response. It's more like i would expect from this list.
But it does sound as though the Evo community has put uptake of Evo quite a looong way down their list of priorities. Are the priorities something like this? 1. Get all the world to reverse course and start bottom-posting instead so they can communicate with Evo's help systems rather than each other (at least until enough people are familiar with it that they know to scroll down to the bottom of emails rather than just read whatever first appears when they open an email) 2. Get mobile device OEMS to also change the way their systems work to make it possible to bottom-post 3. Get Linux to be dominant on the desktop, and by desktop i don't include mobile devices errr, probably some whole other bunch of things too such as spending longer editing emails rather than just type a quick response and click send 6 (ish?) Start thinking about using Evo It seems to me the community is fighting on too many fronts that have already been lost. Products that have broken through, put getting their product into people's hands at a much higher priority. As a result they have been able to exert more influence and changed people's work-flow.
