I’ve written in the past about GOOD’s … um… Good product. It allows you to get email (Domino or Exchange) on smart phones easily. Its one of the easiest products to use and must have been developed by a bunch of ex-IT people, because it makes supporting it very very easy!
In the past year, Good was acquired by Motorola and I’ve been wondering what the future of Good would be … especially since last year at this time, Good was talking about their “version 5″ product which was to be a major upgrade for them.
Yesterday, I got an email from MotoGood (can I call it that? I think so) saying that many of the devices they currently support are going to be end-of-life’d (can I make a verb out of that? I think so). The announcement is due to the fact that they will “shortly” release their next version, 5.0. – I can’t wait to see what’s in it because I’ve heard its a big release (and I’ve talked to LOTS of people there about features that SHOULD be in it … especially ones that would make it more Domino-friendly).
Incase you’re wondering, the devices they will no longer support are:
- Treo 650 –Technical Support available through August 31, 2008
Treo 700w from Verizon — Technical Support available through August 31, 2008. Note: Treo 700wx on Verizon is not affected by this announcement. - Treo 600 — Technical Support available through March 31, 2008
- Cingular 2125 and derivative devices — Technical Support available through March 31, 2008.
- The Cingular 2125 belongs to the HTC Tornado family of devices, and is also sold under the following names:
O2 IQ
Orange SPV C600
i-Mate SP5
HTC Tornado
Qtek 8310/8300
T-Mobile SDA
Vodafone VDA II
Dopod 577
