    Sheesh.



    I was going to say the same thing - what is going on where writers these days just grab nouns and adverbs out of the dictionary and shove them into a sentence where a verb should be? Why, especially when we already have plenty that would do the job in this case such as increase, enlarge, expand, extend, develop, broaden.

    Too bad, looks like it's just a view and enter data app only. But then again for this small amount of money I shouldn't have expected any more. Still it's good they produced this app and I can imagine many people will find it very useful.

    Has anyone here actually bought FileMaker Go for the iPad yet and, if so, how well does it work?



    I'm tempted but the purchase price is pretty steep for an app.
