I wonder if you are stilll using the product and also if you have resolved the issue of the small size of the vendor

Jayin:
I am still using it. I am very pleased with it. I haven’t had to contact them but there are regular improvements (http://www.jointlogic.com/b-folders/2/help/new.vm ). For example you can now create “cards” with user definable fields. Sync also continues to be developed: http://jointlogic.com/b-folders/2/help/sync/ .
I am a happy customer.

Thanks Charles. I have a concern about a major migration to something that might be fly-by-night. Also it’s clear that to get full functionality on the android (eg conversion of my palm data onto my android) I have to but the product. Apparently you have to keep purchasing major upgrades as well. Pehaps that’s the business plan that will keep him afloat :)
