But why don't they accept faxes or something that doesn't take an eternity?
Man what a cramp to download forms, print them out, sign and snail mail.. I
mean I've set up 4 online broker accounts in one week without that much
hassle. I realize that it's great just to have the availability of debug
ROMs because otherwise we'd have to buy each device or beg people for copies
of their ROM.
Still, I guess I am the worlds biggest procrastinator because I'm ready to
release some software but I still don't have the IIx, V, or VII debug ROMs to
test with. The usual excuses, I could've sworn I filled out something on
palm.com 6 months ago that said it was going to mail me an NDA. And of
course I've had the ones I downloaded recently on my desk at work in a pile
of other paperwork. Sure doesn't help me now.. I'm just a slave to the new
age of instant access :)
