I cannot help but smile, as I have been involved with mant of those companies over the last 25m years, and typically you end upi with an orphaned product.

However FiC has been around a while and has hit every target on time for 4 years. No gaurantee, but best I have seen.

Note though that with Fi it makes no difference; your code is HTML, javascript, and CSS. You get the js and vfp code they use t do that conversion. Nothing could happen to the company that would affect the product or how I would use it.


>ay yi yi ,, out of the fire and into the frying pan. If I were you I would keep your vfp code and just do a front end in jQuery and/or jQuery Mobile. These small companies (perhaps like the ones you mentioned) don't seem to last too long or have a critical mass to carry the tools forward.
