Froq 2 2.0rc2 (Mac OS X)
Although it has a nice looking interface, has a least one major bug: after viewing one table of a database, I get an error filling my whole screen when I select am other table.
Comparing features and price ($67), I'll stick to Cocoa MySQL which does basicaly the same, but is freeware. [alert admin]

SunFlower 0.1 (Mac OS X)
Downloaded the app, double clicked the (terrible) icon, nothing happened. Copied the app to a different location, tried again, still nothing. But I can't remove the disc image, because 'Sunflower' is in use. I started activity monitor, but there's no process running by the name of Sunflower. Nore does it show in the terminal. Is this some kind of malware? [alert admin]

MacGPS Pro 7.4 (Mac OS X)
... no thank you. You have to pay $50,- to see how this thing works. Not good karma. Based on the screenshots I judge the app as realy bad interface design. If you need to connect your gps to a Mac to upload gpx-files, there several are other (freeware) apps. Or try Trailrunner if you need to view your route on a map. [alert admin]

Eudora 8.0.0b1 (Mac OS X)
For those who have problems importing previous Eudora mail: I switched from Eudora to Thunderbird 2.0 a few months ago. I had no problem importing thousands of emails in three dozens mailboxes from eight different accounts. Since Eudora 8 uses the Thunderbird preferences and mailboxes, you could try to import Eudora 6 mail first via Thunderbird. Then you just need to open Eudora 8 and all mail is there. [alert admin]

DropJPG 3.0.1 (Mac OS X)
This is a one trick pony. It only converts Images to JPG. Go for Imagewell. It can do so much more, even in the free version. [alert admin]

Eudora 8.0.0b1 (Mac OS X)
I would rather call this a new version of Thunderbird with Eudora style icons, than Eudora 8.0. It has nothing to do with what Eudora once was. There are improvements over Thunderbird 2.0 like integration of Mac OS Addressbook and in a whole it seems more Mac like. Small interfacebugs of Thunderbird still exist. Looks promising. I prefer this over Thunderbird, if I only can get rid of the nasty looking Eudora icons. (Installing new Thunderbird theme's doesn't seem to work). [alert admin]

FileMaker Pro Advanced 9.0 (Mac OS X)
This update is realy significant. One of the major, and I mean Major, improvements is the ability to connect to external SQL databases. Live connections to MySQL, wow! Now it's possible to use the ease of creating lay-outs in Filemaker to create great interfaces for SQL databases. And it works realy well. For instance a MySQL date field (yyyy-mm-dd) is converted to a Filemaker, more readable, format dd-mm-yyyy (or whatever you choose in your lay-out) and all changes are written back in the correct MySQL format. See: http://www.filemaker.com/products/fmp/sql.html This is the Filemaker I've been waiting for since Filemaker 6. Thank you, thank you, thank you! [alert admin]

If you're not on a Mac (or even if you are) go to php.net, and not to a freelance developer that uses Versiontracker comments as an advertisement for a lame pdf document.

Trying to partion your hard drive without doing a full backup first? No matter what a developer claims, taking such a dangerous step without taking precausions is asking for trouble. Don't blame the developer for loosing data.

Thunderbird and Eudora use the same mailfolders (Library > Thunderbird) so you can easely switch from one to another.

@tabaks: Did you actualy try the app before posting the comment?? If so, you would have noticed that a) you need to set a password to access the data, b) can serve the data through a secure (https) connection (which you also could have seen on the posted screenshots) on the screenand c) not only can access the data in a Yojimbo like interface, but also edit it Yojimbo style.
So next time: try it…

Yes it can upload to SQL databses. Create a new table from an ODBC connection. You automaticaly get a new layout with all the fields from the remote database (or create your own layout, Filemaker stile). Making changes in any data, will be uploaded to the remote SQL database as soon as you click outside a field or go to the next record.

And why would you think that? I'm not a Filemaker employe or related to Filemaker Inc. in any matter. I'm a database- and webdeveloper and a longstanding user of Filemaker (since version 3). And I realy am very enthousiastic about Filemaker 9. Try it, and you'll like it, too.

Maybe the chat-window doesn't show where you left off, but there is a log viewer where you can search through all your chatsession. So you can always find what you previously talked about.

Ancient_Boii_Tribe I think you missunderstand what this app does. It's not intended for bouncing spam back to the (fake) sender. It's intended for people who have a mailinglist and want to handle all the mail that get's bounced because an emailaddress doesn't exist anymore, mailbox is over quota or someone has set a vacation message.
I maintain a mailinglist with 500+ subscribers and a dozen or so emails bounce each week. All I'm interested in are…

Great, but slightly annoying to use 
You can type a number first and then click in a box. In the end you'll find this more easy, since you often want to enter the same number in several boxes. More often than changing the number in one box. (Unless you're randomly typing numbers into a box, to find out which one's correct. But that's cheating... ;-) )
