Jim, I'm sure Mark/Space appreciates your expression of support.  But 
your argument fails to address the real issue.

Sure, software development is complicated; no one would argue 
otherwise.  The problem here is that people were informed at the latest 
possible moment that the upgrade allowing for compatibility with Tiger 
will be delayed.  Angry reactions should have been anticipated and could 
easily have been avoided if this were simply handled differently, i.e., 
if the unfortunate news been dispensed in a timely manor.

That said, there are only two satisfactory products available to those 
who wish to sync Pocket PCs to OS X: MissingSync and PocketMac Pro.  
I'll probably stick with Missing Sync so as to avoid the time and 
trouble involved in switching over.  Mark/Space must be hoping that many 
will feel as I do, because any hopes of product loyalty being a factor 
are simply no longer realistic.
