True, but there are potentially quite a few users for whom your product is absolutely the first one they've ever tried to put on their Palm. We've had customers who didn't know that you _could_ put new stuff on, and aren't particularly computer savvy. While I agree that installing a Palm app is usually a case of double-clicking the .pdb/.prc file (barring file extension mapping problems), installing a conduit can be much more difficult from the neophyte's point of view. >Besides the cross-platform issues w/ .exe installers, given that most >PalmOS app distributions are only a few 10s of KB in size, a .exe >installer is likely to greatly increase the distribution, thus >increasing download times. Allowing a choice of installer (for various platforms) vs. bare file can be nice. Have fun!
