Computing Unplugged interviewed 5 developers of products for mobile platforms. The interviewees are Kevin Benedict, CEO of MobileDataforce, David Haupert, CEO of DDH Software, Iain Barclay, co-founder and chief products officer of Electric Pocket, Jim Brady, CEO of Earthcomber, and Todd Sherman, president of Smart Box Design. They were all asked 5 questions. Some of the answers are very interesting.
• What are your thoughts about the Windows Treo and PalmSource's sale to ACCESS?
• Do you intend to continue to develop Palm OS software? If so, for how long? Do you have any concerns?
• Do you currently develop Windows Mobile software? Do you intend to start developing for the Windows Mobile platform?
• Do you still consider the Palm OS software market a viable business opportunity?
• Do you have any other comments or opinions on this news?
