For 14 months already! The Pocket Pro is still vaporware and "RobertB" has us lining up to buy it! In colors and other expectations even! Whew. I sure hope he comes back though.
Robert B. does indeed exist. Several here have met him or talked to him on the phone. I myself have called numbers he has given me to put me in touch with Walter in tech. support. It's a very thinly kept secret as to his real name and position at Astak, as there was a picture linked to not long ago with his business card prominently featured. However, it's not up to me to release that information, so I'm not going to. If you are interested enough, however, between this thread and the other Astak thread, you can track down the information.
