All excellent questions! I'll be paying attention to responses.
As for Josh Kennedy's questions, Josh Josh Josh, you really shouldn't
ingest so much caffeine. :)

Hi Jonathan,
Being at a nexus in my professional life, I need to clarify some
points re the forthcoming upgrade in order to make some long term plans.
So I do hope you can help me.
(1) Which type of Blue-tooth are PDI considering including, IE, 1 2 or 3?
(2) Will the new version be more accessible to off the shelf software? If
so, could you elaborate?
(3) As far as wireless connectivity is concerned can we use such things
as, for example, software phones? Also, in general, is this new software
open to choice with regard to makes, or will we still be restricted to
those brands provided or recommended by PDI?
(4) Will the new version be more accessible to more versions of GPS and
their maps?
(5) The temp file issue: As you know, downloading with the bn has been
severely restricted because during the process, files have to be stored on
the limited space on the keysoft systems disk. Has this been rectified?
(6) I see no mention of synching emails with the PC. How far away is this?
(7) With the new OS, will we have the option of either storing our emails
to another drive while retaining the database structure, or will we be
able to download them to a drive of our choice?
(8) Is the link between the internet browser and keymail now to be
seamless? Will we be able to click on a link in an email and go there?
(9) Will we be able to use all the functions of, for example, chm files?
(10) Will we be able to download and use onboard thesauri, language
dictionaries etc?
(11) How useful will the bn be in conjunction with a cell phone in the
context of getting it to read text messages, the address book and so on?
In short, if I ever can be, could it negate the necessity for expensive
programs such as Talks?
I suppose, as time goes by, I will have loads more questions for you,
so please forgive me in advance for the liberty but I really do have to
make some hard choices very soon and wish to make the right one and
knowledge is power!
Thanks,
All the best,
Sandy.
