How was it dishonest to get hired by Palm to (one would assume) bring his vastly superior product over to Palm? Hopefully the next generation of Palm devices (assuming any actually ever see the light of day) will use something much more like Chatter. If Palm is going to have any chance against RIM, they're going to need a much better email client. Notice they didn't hire the Snapperfish developers (who probably would have told them they could only go to work for them if they got rid of NVFS). If you're hoping for a future with Palm, you should be very glad that they hired Marc. ALSO note that a followup email indicated that the person who asked the original question posted it on the new forums and got a response back quickly. In my own recent experience I found myself at the Chatter forums and had an answer to my question (from Marc) about as quickly as I'd expect him to answer an email. Marc hasn't let any customers down, except the ones who foolishly think that he did something wrong by getting hired to help save the company you all depend on. TjL
