The reasons given have been the shortness of the beta cycle for product and that IBM has not officially announced its plans for the new "Worldwide Developer Assistance Program," which we have been informed will be formally disclosed by John Soyring somewhere around the 18th of October. Now the phone question: In the States the phones have alphabet characters as well as numbers. (GHI= 4, ABC= 2, MNO= 6) You cannot however use this system to spell anything with a 'Q' or a 'Z' as they are not provided on the dial. I haven't ever seen a British phone so I have no way of knowing wether it is the same there <grin>. Cherio! ================================================= Every thing I say may be rumour and or innuendo, but I don't think so...
