>FWIW, I don't think any of this matters much any more. Mobile devices *have* reached the tipping point. Android leads the pack and neither NET nor VFP seems particularly relevant in that new world. Yeah, I know you can do mono on platforms apart from WP7 but Novell just got bought by Attachmate and who knows whether they'll decide to Fox it. If NET ends up for WP7 alone, it's just not very important.

Android has come on very strong. You were right about that, and early.

Be glad you are in the southern hemisphere, my friend. My insanely neat neighbor Lyle is out in his driveway trying to clear it. There is a no-drive advisory in effect for miles around and I'm sure Lyle is not planning to drive the 20 miles or so to where he works. But he wants to see that driveway black. The snowblower is blowing almost everything back into his face or into the garage. Now Kelly is out there with him, the two of them shoulder to shoulder. They have cleared about two feet. God love them but this is hilarious.
