You know 8 months ago I badly wanted to have a Treo myself. I remember getting hooked onto Palm OS after seeing Dr. Ramani with is Palm III at the Mech Eng. Department at Purdue. Then I bought one of my own and then later moved to a Palm V and then to Palm Zire. I could not afford a Treo though. I still have CDs full of Palm OS software. But the Palm guys gave up on Palm OS and now they are shifting to Access Linux instead (I am sure you know that).

So the short answer is that the new version of Treo will indefinitely have a SIP based VoIP program available, but as far as your current Treo is concerned, its already obsolete .. haa haa haa…

But then I guess you could be using the Windows Mobile version of Treo in which case …. huh…

A Object oriented - type safe language like Java, C++, C#, or VB.NET is far more scalable, and can leverage modern software design concepts and design patterns etc. Additionally .NET allows you to avoid DLL hell, and easily interop with code written in any other language (that compiles to the CLR). Though, in practice, c++ code is still annoying to interop with. Specially if the c++ code isn’t being sunsetted, but extended.

VB had a place, but its dead. For people to really keep[ up with the latest and greatest, they shoudl forget VB and move to C#. Its really not much more complicated, and the gui designer will help you get small applications together pretty fast. Additionally you have the ability to leverage the entire .NET library and prevent your application from being limited by the language.
