Judy – I would love to see some examples of things you’ve built with Zebra. Do you have any you’d be willing to share?
Dan, I’d certainly be willing to share, but honestly, I haven’t played with it in months and anything I did before then is not really completed work. I’m planning to get some use out of my 60-day trial soon, so I’ll post back here when I make something worth sharing.
