Did you read what I said? (No, or you wouldn't have to ask.)
The point of my message was that Handspring has issued a dire warning
in their e-newletter which was either very poorly written, or was
intended to scare people away from third party software. Since most of
the people on palm-dev-forum are creators of third-party software, I
thought it would be of interest to point this out. If it is not of
interest to you, then you may ignore it, but you really don't need to
call me a "troll".
Whether or not one reads the final part of the sentence ("...you don't
need."), the over-all message from "Handheld Lessons: Extend Your
(Battery) Life" is that third-party software is dangerous, risky,
battery-sucking drivel that should be deleted. To me, that does not
seem to be a message that is good for the Palm Economy, and I was quite
surprised that Handspring sent it.
On a technical note, I find it hard to believe that deleting
third-party software that I am not using (that's the only sw that I
"don't need") is going to save battery life. It hardly matters what
combination of bits is sitting there!
I have nothing more to say on this topic.
