Phil,

I think the app JVP is referring to is for a credit card company/bank.



>>To clarify, I am part of the team that has written what is arguably the biggest Fox app in the world: 800 users, almost 200gb growing at 20gb a month. Still, Fox may not be the right tool for you. Or, it might be. It depends on the type of app and other issues..
