The Orneta Beta Program, is currently offering pre-release access to six products including, Biorhythm Mobile, Calculator Mobile, Checkers Mobile, Notepad Mobile, and Go Mobile. The beta area lets you access official versions of the programs in the final stage of development. The beta versions offer users the chance to carry out functionality tests to identify possible problems. At the same time it offers Orneta a vehicle for gathering suggestions and users' needs."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/beta.program.jpg" /><br /><br />I'm glad that more developers are starting to bridge the gap to end-users by offering public betas of their software, and actually using their feedback to make it full of the features that people really want. You are invited to sign up and give their programs a whirl, then tell them what can be done to improve on it.
