  02/05/2002 After a long discussion with iambic we 'eventually' decided on the winning logo/magazine cover- it's from Sean Charles and is pictured above.

I have also received some very good content for the Clie World Magazine and the following have been given out over the past week or so:- Brian Emick- Breakout and PilotColumns George Birman- Handstory Suite 2.0 and Time Place 4 Sean Charles- another program (tba) for a superb article for the magazine If you want to contribute to the magazine let me know as I will do my best to offer a reward for your efforts. |
