As you all know, it is no secret that our loyal and die-hard customers, partners, guardian angels, and R:BASE developers (with vested interest in R:BASE) are the driving force behind the success of R:BASE Technologies, Inc., celebrating its 12th Anniversary with the MAJOR release of R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 and Oterro 9.0. The following paragraph is from my original post on this official R:BASE list on May 11, 2010 at 11:28pm. ----- Subject: Re: R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 Beta Testers While you all have fun with the official release version of R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 (32/64), we will be busy fulfilling those pre-purchase orders, shipping the product media around the world, and getting ready for our 12th Annual R:BASE Conference http://www.rbase.com/events/ full of R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 presentations, solutions, and a few surprises! ----- Having said that, have you all compared the look and feel of www.rbase.com when using the browser on your desktop vs. iPhone? Hope that provides you all with some blue's clues ...
