I also agree with the statement and would like to add that I hope that PALM's
arrogance and HUGH EGO does continue to get in the way of PALM's dealing with
its developer comunity. The now have a great change to make up for that
arrogance by giving us developers a conforming SKD that will allow us to update
our existing APPs to take advantage of the new WEB OS and maybe.... maybe
maybe... save PALM's arrogant ass and ours as well....
Anywho
It's about ^%&&**^^%& time, we it seem a job wel done... Hope it is still in
time to keep the applesause in the pork and not in our apps....
