Oh one more thing. I looked at the Aeroplayer website more closely. One
can download a skin that does use the full screen of the TX and/or
Lifedrive.
It really is too bad about the playlists. Couldn't Missing Sync and the
Aeroplayer people make some kind of collaborative effort here?
(pTunes doesn't play AAC, which is Apple's iTunes "standard" so it makes
some sense to spend time supporting a palm program that actually works
with our original music... and yeah, of course MP3s are played too)
