I have heard several reports that there are discussions on US networks
along the line of Lisowski's remarks. Well, They told me that they
wouldn't charge me until they shipped the product, but they billed me in
June for a "Sneak preview" that I don't want that was shipped in August.
I am only interested in working versions. The literature enclosed with
the shipment did NOT say that "it would not work", although it
acknowledged a few bugs.
I really like PP, so I will wait and pray, but what they told me is not
what they told Lisowski.
