I just requested my copy. I don't know if there are any left.
I did download and install the demo.
Although I installed Jet Cet to my storage card, JetCet took up a big chunk of my internal memory. It seems that the program loaded properly on my storage card, but almost 3Mb of dll's were loaded into internal storage.
I mentioned this to WesTek when I requested by free full copy (if I'm one of the first 50).
I'm hoping there's some type of custom minumum installation.

Poor support
I actually bought this, and my serial number does not work. Despite 3 emails to support, still no reply. I hate companies like this.

RE: Poor support
Sorry to hear you've had a poor experience dma 1965. You obviously haven't been corresponding with me!  Westtek actually prides itself on the quality and timeliness of support we provide customers. Please feel free to reach out to [email protected] or [email protected] for assistance if a fast response isn't forthcoming from Support. It's possible they are backlogged or your email was caught by our spam filter.

I'm going to give this a try as it looks like a nice solution. One question that I have is if there are any plans to support office 2007 files?

I don't like to come across as being a flamer on this, but this is just poor programming. I have many programs which put all their installation files in one folder on the storage card with no problem. This is just a combination of laziness and not thinking about the end user. I would fire an engineer for doing this.

Microsoft for whatever reason chose to remove the search path concept (at least as far as 3rd party applications is concerned) that has been a part of Windows since its inception. You are also no doubt aware of the VM space issues in WM, that sometimes requires combining functionality in DLLs so as not to over burden precious slot 0 VM space. The combination of those things and the fact that printing is a system service and requires system drivers unfortunately dictates that we put some files in \windows. Westtek's engineers (plural, not singular) worked tirelessly for the last 6 months of the project to strike a balance between VM usage, storage usage, performance and effeciency, etc. all while trying to cut down on the possibility that someone could screw up their installation. We can and will do more, but what we have is a good start - and not something that just happened by accident. With all due respect, if you want to point the poor programming finger, point it at the other Redmond company for not dealing with VM and 3rd party installation issues a long time ago.
Did you get your serial number issue addressed?
