I decided to post in just one newsgroup and prefix the subject with "ANN" to minimize the impact. Also, given the numerous lengthy OT threads on r.a.piloting about DVDs etc, I didn't think one post that was aviation related would be too invasive. Thanks for sharing your views.

Any posts you see there are spam with forced authentication. |

I'd recommend him not using ANN because I tend to not read anything that looks like it might have something to do with the psychopath's website. |

I'd recommend him not using ANN because I tend to not read anything that looks like it might have something to do with the psychopath's website. Yikes! That hardly seems neighborly. Here's my two cents, since the thread seemed to start on this one AND in the spirit of fairness to the original poster. Just had to 'chime' in. I've been contrasting this product's features against the 'King E6B' PocketPC software and have been most pleased with the WingX. I've downloaded WingX and am currently using this product and find that it is a well-crafted product with a most crisp and intuitive interface (you can start using it from the 'get-go' and you won't have to hunt for a 'manual' to use it). Not to mention the fact that the company's number of free software upgrades is most generous. The addition of the FAR's adds not only the 'icing' to the cake but adds the 'cherry on top' to make WingX a generously featured PocketPC application. ..... And no, I'm not an employee of the company that makes it :-) I just thought I'd be open-minded and give it a try,,, glad I did. If I hadn't I would have really missed out on a solid aviation application for my handheld from a small but very earnest company. After spending my work days, troubleshooting PC workstations and networks, fighting battles with software conflicts due to clunky, poorly written code - it's nice to deal with a software application (in this case WingX) that is well-scripted and delivers what it promises. Looks like a small start-up company, to me, that is starting off with one very strong foot forward. Ron,,, if you tried it you would really like it! :-) Just my two cents..... -- -- Good Flights!

I think he was presenting it as a news release about the product...
