Hey Xiino Developers, Contact Me!
Back in May I wrote an article "Xiino, When Will You Update!?". Since I have had a few readers comment and email me over their frustration with the developers. I think the majority of folks who put Xiino on their Treo loved it. Sure it's ugly as hell, but it's super, super fast and very reliable. In my mind it's light years beyond Blazer.
But it has not been updated since 2005/04/13. A lot of readers have told me they have tried to contct the developers and have yet to receive any answer back.
So I am making a public plea to the Developers of Xiino to please drop me a line and tell me what's up with Xiino! There are a number of Palm users who want to know, including myself. We would like to see it updated for the newer Palm devices, and with a much better UI.
You have a Lot of people wanting it so I hope you are building it. Again, drop on by and let me know, so I can let the Palm community know. Thanks!
I would also be interested in a good Palm browser that can allow me to view a website in the same format as a Windows computer rather being relegated to the light and inoperable wap version. It's too bad that there aren't many browsers that can offer us Palm users something better than Blazer. Even Opera Mini seems good but version 4 keeps crashing or at least hanging and for some sites, terribly slow. I am anxiously looking forward to Donald Kirker's browser since it also seems to offer a lot of promise. But most of all, I'd love to get a browser that can handle Flash enabled websites so that I can listen to music sites like Musicovery, Seeqpod and many other video sites that are Flash enabled.

We'll get to the bottom of this mystery May C!

I'm a recent TX user and really hate Blazer ; then I discovered Xiino and its wonderful thousand bookmarks system .When the 30 days of trial were over I've tried to buy it ; the Handango link wasn't good anymore so I tried to buy it at Pdassi.de and now 15 days later Pdassi is refunding me because Xiino is not available anymore .Today I went on Mobirus site but it doesn't exist anymore ! Such a shame , Ireally loved that browser .

I am down to the last 2 days of my Xiino trial and I love it, but like Oups, I cannot find any way to register or buy it, which I would gladly do. Anyone know where the developer is, or how one can properly buy/register it?
Thanks.
