Yes, I am, albeit _extremely_ slowly. The problem is that the SDK is on a PC
and I really, really, don't like using PCs. Also the documentation etc is utter
cr at p.  Psion 5 only, since that is the only one they sell an sdk for IIRC. Also
it might get a Strong ARM sometime soon.

If anybody out there wants to join in on the fun, let me know and maybe we can
collaborate to mutual advantage. And no, Mr Starr that doesn't come under any
definition of a sexual relationship :-)
