Jay, there is a bit of not-so-good news here for CTXS:

In conjunction with the beta releases, third parties are
readying tools to take advantage of the technology. Cruise
Technologies will announce new software to extend client
support to wireless client devices. GraphOn is also
readying tools that allow MTS to support Unix-based "X"
clients.

It has been stated several times on this thread that only CTXS will be allowed to supply client software for MTS. I have always argued that CTXS will face competition in an "open" MTS system. The press release establishes that there will be competition. We can expect the other remote control vendors to take advantage of this too.

Also NCDI announced yesterday that its Winframe sales have plummeted because the market is waiting on MTS now. With NCDI being one of the larger Winframe resellers, one has to wonder how CTXS revenues are going this quarter............
