I am not a professional developer, so there is probably little I could do in that regard. I do have some programming background and have been interested in trying to develop some Android apps that are sorely missing from what's out there (plotting software being #1), but currently have too many other demands on my time.
Regarding the point about making the Edge better: to put it bluntly, that's not my job. Nor is it robot's, or boris', or jcase's, or anyone else not employed by Entourage. Just like every other owner of the Edge I paid money in return for the professionals to make a device that does the job it's supposed to. Now, I'd *like* it to get better, certainly, but the onus shouldn't be put on me to make it so.
I'll be installing Dingo tomorrow sometime, so I'll re-evaluate my opinions of the Edge at that time. With the mail question cleared up, it looks like the update is a net gain, so perhaps my experience will improve.
