Dear All,

Does anyone aware of PalmOS 5 doesn't support SysSetTrapAddress? This means
all Hacks will not work anymore.

This is a very big issue which makes PalmOS 5 fails. Palm will lost the
global market just because of it.

This means all external language systems cannot be supported anymore. You
cannot install Greek, Chinese, Korean or any other language systems on any
PalmOS 5. You must buy native PalmOS 5 machines of that language. Does Palm
have localized machines for Hebrew or Russian?

As a Chinese user myself, I would like to select my machine model like Sony
Clie and use external Chinese language systems. Palm OS 5 doesn't support
Hacks which means this cannot be done.

Does Palm itself have all kinds of languages for all model lines? Or
PalmSource would like each licensee support 50 languages out-of-the-box? I
also find PalmOS 5 removed IntlSetRoutineAddress which means there is
totally no ways for any external language systems.

I'm so disappointed to find this fact. Many people are very excited to talk
about PalmOS 5 features but nobody is talking about no more system
extensions. Hope PalmSource aware this issue and fix it as soon as possible
before too late. I don't hope to see another story of WordPerfect.

Very disappointed PalmOS software developer.
