Steven,

I'm going to be teaching a Palm Programming class in Long Island June 21-25.

I'm very interested in learning to use PocketST to develop Palm apps (I'm a
wannabe Smalltalk programmer from way back-Byte issue and Smalltalk books).

Will this tutorial be around this time, or is it possible to get together
with you one evening and get a demo from an experienced user.


Thanks,

Neil Rhodes
