It's good to hear positives stories re NSB running on the Web OS. I've been busy on \
NSBasic/Symbian lately but my new software will port between Palm and Symbian due to \
the closeness of both versions. It will be great to utilise more exposure to Web OS \
via the Motion Apps tool. I wonder if there'll be a solution to release straight to \
Web OS using NSBasic for Palm, like with the Styletap tie in on Symbian? (sorry if \
it's been discussed, not been following the Palm group very well lately!)
