hi there steve this one i have is far more accessible than anything i have seen
it really is very good indeed and it is the fact that this chap went back to
make the app so very accessible. i do understand that times are hard with
regards to paying for things but as i said in one of my other every-mails i do
not mind paying for anything if it is good. when you see this new app in a few
weeks you will be truly amazed.
