    Before I joined the BlackBerry 'cult' I was a Treo user, and I used the DataViz Palm equivilent. Brilliant software.

    But, with Palm devices, you got it free, well, at least I did. I wonder if BlackBerry / DataViz will come up with a decent contract/agreement to have the software as a default install on new BlackBerry devices...

    To me that alone would cause me to buy yet another device...

    I don't know what the cost may be, but I'm getting it. I used to have it when I had my Palm, and it was great.

    This is one piece of software that should be worth every penny!
