We have been considering an OS X version of PageNOW! for some time.

It isn't an easy decision, as the transition from OS 9 to OS X is a far more radical one for software developers than was the transition from 68K to PowerPC a number of years back.

The 68K to PowerPC transition mostly required minor editing and a recompile.

For applications (such as PageNOW!) that do any sort of serial communications (ie, talk to serial port or modem), entire sections of the product must be entirely re-written.

We have analyzed the cost and effort it will take to produce an OS X version, and now ask you, our customers, to indicate how much of a demand there is for a fully OS X native version of PageNOW!

Please indicate your interest by completing the survey

If we feel that the development costs can be recovered in a fair amount of time, we will green-light the project.

TC Ringer is the perfect companion to your Treo! With TC Ringer you can easily assign ring tones to both groups and individuals - so you will know who is calling just by the tone played. And TC Ringer works in conjunction with your existing Address Book, so it is very easy and convenient to configure.

What is new in 1.0.1?

• New: Added color artwork for Welcome Screen
• Fixed: Bug where Treo wouldn't play tone if there was a match, but no tone was assigned to the category

Purchasing:
TC Ringer is $14.95, available direct from TreoCentral - currently in an attractive bundle with 5 Ring Tones from their exhaustive library (a $4.95 value) for only $14.95!
