RE: Typical - BUT, here is how to get the update FREE !!!
In case some people come now and claim to be righteous and say that I scam them out of money... I CHOSE to register early, simply to get the registration process out of the way. I could have chosen NOT to register and only register today to get the free upgrade. So there, I think I am right and it is working.
In fact, I have not even used Docs to go yet because of its inability to work with the SD card (which is what I was waiting for...)

High Res Support Please!
1) High res support for Clie, Handera, etc.
2) Ability to open jpeg and web page attachments
3) Ability to send documents straight to expansion card at syncronization (maybe it does this, haven't tried it yet).
I've got to think high res support is coming soon though.

Sad SD Support.
Wow, I downloaded and upgraded to 4.0 (Didn't pay anything, just put my date of purchase of my m505 as July 21st). The onlyway that it will see the files on the card is to file them into seperate category exactly like the built-in launcher does. You'd think that given the amount of time they stalled on SD support it would be much more integrated. Side note, it you try to move your stored Docs into the DXTG directory on the SD card with MCFile or a similar program, Docs2Go will not see them, you can only move them there using the file option in the program on the Palm.
Not bad I guess, but given the time I would have expected more. I certianly would be upset had I paid for this upgrade.
RE: Sad SD Support.
They've done it so that you can add files directly to the card by categorizing the docs on the desktop - to answer the previous post.
Everything seems to just work whether docs are on the card or on the Palm. Even the app seems to know what files are on the card because they disappear from the list when you eject the card and get added back when you put the card in. And you can sync files on cards even if you make changes.
How would you have it be more integrated than that.?
RE: Sad SD Support.
Being able to maintain the Category (Personal, Business, etc) while being installed on either the SD card or RAM would be a start. You CAN do this with other programs like iSilo or any doc reader using MSMount and other programs like PalmReader and Adobe Acrobat Reader can do it nativly as can the updated 3rd party launchers like LauncherIII 2.3.

Mac support
Mac users, for example: none of the innovations in this upgrade is available in the Mac version and (according to DataViz) there is no set date when they might be. Not much point in upgrading until then, unfortunately....

Just me being selfish....

mmm, no printing
ok, nice new powerpoint addon, but no printing option. anyone with comments on this?
RE: mmm, no printing
As far as competition... Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, Email attachments, Windows & Mac versions, the best synchronization of any Palm wp/ss app, SD support, all in one app. I think it's great.
I've owned other DataViz products and have always found them to have excellent products and support.

Palm should build printing APIs into OS 5. Having to buy an app just to print from some, but not all, your software a dumb.
Say what you want...
Surprised
four months, despite the good support & product, I resent paying
again, particularly when lack of SD support on my 505 version as shipped was pretty unforgivable anyway.
I have seen the future!
On my second viewing of the computer-animated epic "Final Fantasy", I happened to notice the classic round "Palm OS" logo in the upper right and left hand corners of a two-way video communication display! See the movie and catch it if you can. The vid screen the characters use is a holographic projection so the logo has a somewhat ghostly, double-vision sort of appearance to it. Nevertheless, it clearly stated "Palm OS powered" in the upper corners! Not all the vid screens showed this logo so, be observant!
I agree with I.M.

Typical - BUT, here is how to get the update FREE !!!
Now here is something one could try though to get it FREE!!!...
When entering in the Palm serial number and registration number on the Dataviz webpage (came with the email confirmation), just enter a date of purchase LESS than 30 days before today.
This will allow you (at least for now) to download the upgrade to 4.0 WITHOUT the add-on kit (PDF and DatavizMail thingamajingees).
Careful though, you can only enter your data in once. You are not allowed to re-submit the data in case your browser hangs....
Worked for me (still downloading...)
Good luck.

P.S. Server is SLOOW and 8 mbyte in size, that is tough on a 56k modem....
