Thanks Bud. I guess it is finally time for us all to move on. Before we all
scatter to the four winds, I wonder if it would be a good idea to start a new
maling list (I assume Spronger will close this one down without warning). We
clearly all have a great deal in common and will all be on the lookout for a
reploacement technology. I sanybody up for this?

Subject: [bookcourier] new BookCourier
I had sent a couple of email messages to Springer Design asking about the
timing of availability of the new BookCourier. Since I had gotten no response
to my emails, I decided to call them directly. Surprise of surprises, somebody
actually answered the phone. I very politely asked about the plans for the
release of the new BookCourier. The response to my query was "the new
Bookcourier has been discontinued." I asked if anything had been put on the
BookCourier list to that effect, suspecting that I had just missed the
announcement. "No, that hasn't been done yet," was the reply. "Somebody will
put a message out as soon as we can. We are pretty busy around here working on
something that's actually making us some money." I have no objection to a
company working on things that make money. Unless the company is being funded
by a philanthropic source, they have to make money so they can pay their
employees and invest in the future of the company. However, I do object to the
fact that the company couldn't take the ten minutes necessary to publicly tell
those of us who have been waiting for the new Currier that there wasn't going
to be any. Now, we in waiting can go on to buy a competitive product on the
market. It doesn't seem to be asking too much that the potential customers for
the new BookCourier be notified by the company that plans for the new
Bookcourier have been scrapped.
