Have you seen Palm's stock price lately?
When I read the message, I got the impression that some genius in
marketing saw 10,000 developers and said, "Imagine the money we could
make if we charged these people to write code for our platform."
Shareware and freeware authors make precious little money for their time
as it is. How many do you think are going to fork over that kind of
money and continue to use this platform? Commercial authors, maybe. But
there are far fewer of those around.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
