The courier is toast. I keep mine as a backup device for the stream. Move to the device of your choice. I don't think we need a list for a dying product.

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? Graham From: bookcourier-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookcourier-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bud Kennedy Sent: 29 April 2009 18:57 To: bookcourier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 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.
