It sounds cool alright ... but I'm a bit concerned it may be too
pie-in-the-sky, particularly from the authoring end. If Dreamweaver, HomeSite,
FrontPage, ColdFusion et al ad nauseum don't support it, many authors won't use
it. WAP is in strife in Europe, WebTV has not taken off as the marketers had
hoped, phones are virtually useless as web-enabled devices etc. I'm concerned
there won't be more than niche market appeal. Still, it really is a cool
concept - please keep the list posted.
