Hi Rob,
Sorry for the confusion...I wasn't referring to Tactile at all. We've
spoken on the phone and your intent is clear (and we appreciate it).
The folks I sent this to (and BCC copied the list) was to Borealis
Communications, LLC (mnickley@borealisweb.com), who make (made) a Home
Inspector package for the Newton.
Apologies for the confusion.
Regards,
Gary

We're not abandoning anything. We're just not putting more additional effort
into it. The software you seem interested in was developed for a third
party, you'd have to contact them.
Thanks,
Rob
