$7.95 for this type of software? How can you beat it? I downloaded and purchased it without hesitation.

Runs quite well on my Treo 750v! I'm very impressed with the new version.

That's where I looked first 8O and all I got was this...

so maybe I'll wait for it to go into trial and force me to add the reg key...? Do note I did not uninstall NB1.2 but installed over it. Here are some of my thoughts about NB2.0 and what could be improved for v2.5 or v3.0

Sounds like you've already got a full version installed and running! If you purchased an upgrade odds are you got a full version download at the end of the purchase process.

And great comments about 3.0 ideas! I've taken them and added them to the list of things we'll look at as possible features in the next version. Thanks!

I cannot get this thing to install, either to device or card storage, even when I boot into "safe bode" using Pocket Plus. It goes through the motions but then tells me installation was unsuccessful.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Also tried Cabinstall, to no effect.
