SoftMaker To Offer TextMaker For $11.11 Again
http://www.softmaker.de/index_en.php
SoftMaker is counting down to November 11 when they will offer TextMaker, PlanMaker and Nyditot's Virtual Display for really low prices starting at $11.11. I think PlanMaker will be $22.22.
"Exactly on November 11 at 11:11 am German time, Carnival shifts into high gear in SoftMaker's hometown of N�rnberg � world-famous all over Germany. Samba in Rio? Bah! Mardi Gras? Forget it! We have carnival speeches, we dance the polonaise, and we drink way too much beer. Unexpected side effects of Carnival become apparent nine months later and go by the names of Hans and Franz."
If you have been holding off on one of these packages, Thursday will be the day to pick them up!

Before I go through the trouble of downloading and installing the demo, how well do these apps behave with WM2003SE VGA devices? More specifically, are the icons in the toolbar hi-res or are they ugly and blocky? Are cell borders two-pixels thick like in Pocket Excel? Also, are there any problems running in SE_VGA mode?

Yeah, it works flawlessly with real VGA. At $11, this is definitely a must-have.
Now if SoftMaker would just do the same with PlanMaker, I'd be happy. <hint hint>

Both TextMaker and PlanMaker most recent releases work wonderfully with SE. Like every other app, they slow in landscape mode due to the way SE handles the display. But they are fully SE- and VGA-compatible. In my experience, they are the dynamic duo of the on-the-road Office equivalents. At the annual sale price of 11.11, this is a no-brainer.

I bought TextMaker when it first came out, at full price. (I don't remember what that was, but it wasn't cheap.) I think that it and PI are the two best investments I ever made for my PPC. I use TM constantly on my X5, even though the device itself can be a little pokey. And Softmaker's support and commitment to the product are nothing short of incredible. :rock on dude!:
I'd buy PlanMaker, too, if I had a VGA screen...

I bought Textmaker last year when they had this deal. It's a fantastic program and puts Pocket Word to shame (although that wouldn't take much I suppose). I always thought it was too pricey until they had this deal but having used it for a while, I think it would be worth the normal cost. The sale price makes it a steal.
