If readers have not yet tried jpilot-db, I have to say, this is the first Java GUI Application that I've seen, since the first time Java was introduced 'eons' <grin> ago that gives me hope that Java is a viable programming language. Jpilot-db comes up faster than any other Java application I have seen, the application works very nicely - certainly there are things that a user such as myself which uses primarily Unix has to learn about the MDI interface, but I found it easy enough to learn. Earlier versions of JPilot-db had some things about it that I found confusing, but the developer has enthusiastically been improving the application (and fixing bugs) on a regular basis. I know I encourage anyone like myself who has always thought "yuck, Java, too slow, too ugly, etc." to give the application a look, particularly if you find Windows only applications at best unusable (since I only have access to Unix systems most of the week). -- Tcl - The glue of a new generation. <URL: http://wiki.tcl.tk/ > Larry W.
