iPhone - still unlikely - as entire application would have to be rewritten
from scratch (minimum of 6-mos - year's work - maybe more) and in a
different programming language which itself has a learning curve. Mac is far
more likely as if Apple supports Sun/Oracle JVM (and there have been rumors
that this will happen now) then the pure java code of Pimlical should
migrate without a huge amount of effort.

 

IOS has some architectural limitations which is one of the reasons no one is
that happy about the third party calendar apps on iPhone, and those
limitations would also affect Pimlical. 

 

And on top of that, iPhone and Android users are expecting applications to
be a fraction of the cost of what the Palm apps were, and still hope for the
same level of support. I am very concerned about what the support is going
to look like on Pimlical/Android when it's released on the Android market
(one of the reasons I have not released it yet, as I want to be sure it's as
stable as possible).

 

Cheers!

Subject: [pdbk] Question for CESD

 

  

Hello CESD,

I periodically write asking the (same) following question...... Would you
please consider writing DateBk for iOS5 (iPhone and iPad) and Pimlical for
MacOS Lion? I was a long time user of DateBk on a Palm TX and since
switching to my iPhone and iPad have not been able to find a comparable
calendar program. My home and office are all Mac all the time....MacBook
Pro, MacBook, MacBook Air, iPad 1, iPad 2 and two iPhone 4s. I hope your
position has softened since I last wrote....please tell me you are
considering adding OS to your stable of products. Thanks for your time and
consideration.
