Thanks James - it's going to be interesting to see how the mobile computing market shakes out. For now, I'm going to remain a little bit of a skeptic. I can see two sides to the story.

The optimistic side is that it will give a marketing person access to the latest information if CTXS software is used to tie them directly to the main database. It would be a proven technology making life a little simpler. I'm going to do some more looking - maybe SEBL has the same thing in mind. It would seem that CTXS has a distinct advantage here.

The pessimistic side would be to look at the customer response if some marketer answered a question by saying something like "well, let me see what the home office has to say." Somewhere there has to be a balance between the central computing and just plain imagination working. (I really don't understand this paragraph too well - I guess I'm wondering how much we can rely on the new technology ).

At any rate, I'm starting to get sold on the fact that the CTXS market might grow faster than any of us think. But I still have some more looking to do.

Thank You again,
