Nov 30
This Thanksgiving I, as I’m sure many of you did, thought a lot about all the things I have to be thankful for. Family, friends, a roof over my head and food on the table. Of course, there were some more specific things that made the list including a few new iPhone apps and having my brother explain to me how to really use FinalCut Pro.
But it got me thinking: what will I be thankful for next year (as it relates to Lotus/Apple stuff)? I thought I’d come up with that list now. (Incase you haven’t figured it out, all of these things are things I HOPE I’ll be thankful for – but none have really happened yet):
- iPhone Client for Lotus Notes (with push email/calendar, global and personal address book, and as much integration to the iPhone as possible)
- Notes 8.5.2 – the release that fixes whatever wasn’t found in testing of 8.5
- Domino Admin/Developer clients for the Mac
- Release of Notes clients for the Mac at the same time as Windows
- Matte screen for the new MacBook Pro
- Another USB port on the MacBook Pro (I always need “one more”)
- Some type of Office software for the Mac that handles menus better with spaces (I’m looking at you MS Office 98), better support for Microsoft Office file formats (now looking at you iWork) or faster loading time without Java errors (yeah, that’s you, Symphony).
- Cisco VoIP client for the iPhone
- Sametime IM client for the iPhone
- Quickr 8.x release that makes it feel like a finished product, not a work in progress — ideally one that runs on Domino; since its a Lotus branded product and not an IBM WebSphere one
What are you wanting to be thankful for?
