I know that there are alternative non-gui news readers available, which  
are (arguably) better than Newsgrazer, but NG does everything that I need  
in a newsreader, but perhaps needs a bit of enhancement here and there..

Is there a future with Newsgrazer?  Will someone be selling it  
commercially?  Making it more 3.0 friendly (in terms of look, it works  
fine)...?

Any info appreciated!

Scott

Isn't Jayson working on a commercial product that is a significant  
enhancement to NewsGrazer? Seems like he was demoing something like that  
at the NeXTWORLD Expo.

NewsExplorer.  From what he says, it's not a usenet news reader.  It's
for things like Dow Jones.  It looked pretty neat...

Wait and see... rumor says that Jayson Adams has some plans there ;-)
Hopefully he'll find a better and more compact solution for rich postings.
