Constant outages from the provider have pretty much killed everything I wanted to really do with the Jabber server. I'm beyond frustrated with them. If there were a decent amount of people still using it, I would have continued on with it, but since it's gone down about a week or so ago, only one other person aside from you two have asked about it.

That gives you a pretty big hint as to how much impact both the RTCOMM release and the frustration of the server dying so often had on our users. And who could blame them, honestly? Having stable direct connections to the various IM platforms was pretty much the holy grail for chat users.

Even though I ultimately feel like I failed in my objectives for Jablet, we did fill a void for tablet users for a little while and maybe even signaled to Nokia that end users wanted more out of their software. Okay, maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part.

These days, I just don't have the motivation or the time to work on anything like this anymore (videogame industry crunch time, gotta love it)... so if anyone's interested, I'll gladly help you get it all up and running.

I'm sorry.
