Even though I am no mobile PDF user, it's nice to see that ppl can finally get through to their password protected PDF files without having to lug around their laptop, their PC version of the correct Adobe software, and use those to remove that hurdle.

Doesn't look like there's any reason to go from DTG7 any edition to DTG8 Standard or Professional edition. Sure, I have heard some posters say DTG8 Premium edition had some improvements in Word/Sheets/Slideshow To Go, like certain features working better and certain speedups in certain loading or accessing functionality, but Dataviz certainly doesn't advertise this. It's like they're purposely underadvertising the lesser editions of DTG8 and trying to get ppl to shell out more $$ for Premium when ppl realize before or after buying the wrong version, the fact the fact that the majority of changes from DTG7 to DTG8 are in fact in Premium edition.

Another thought hit me. Many ppl here have been considering upgrading to DTG8 Prem. I'm assuming most users here have either DTG7 Std or Pro, since it would've came with their handhelds. Does DV even consider DTG7 Std or Pro to DTG8 Prem an upgrade, or does it require a "new purchase"?

Dear Dataviz - Need WEB QUERY for Sheet To Go!

Gekko @ 10/14/2006 8:46:33 AM # Q

Dear Dataviz -

SUGGESTION -
Please add Web Query function to your Sheet To Go product. I'd love to be able to have a spreadsheet on my phone and press a button on the spreadsheet (refresh data) and have Sheet To Go do a web query and go out to the internet and pull in dynamic information in real time over the air right into the spreadsheet - ex. stock quotes and yield information. Now I have to do the Query on my PC and sync it to my Phone which is a PIA. This would open up a HUGE world of possibilities for your customers and would put you in a great position!

THANKS!!!

p.s. Here is how Excel does it:
