I love their marketing line "The dotPocket will help users to transform their handhelds "into the only computer" they need."

Yea, except for the one you are using to control and display your PPC. :wink:

Works on my O2 XDA, looks nice. I think it's a bit pricey for such a simple tool though. :cry:

We have lowered it a bit:), DP is now the cheapest tool in its category.

Actually no, it isn't. Pocket Controller-Professional by Soft Object Technologies Inc is cheaper at $24.99. And Pocket Controller has a Cut&Paste from desktop to PDA vice versa function.

Don't get me wrong, I think DP is a great tool, it just needs a little work and re-pricing. Once that's done, choosing between DP and Pocket Controller will be a tough job :wink:

Ok, ok:) we are working on cut-paste and some additional functions:)
