CED  I don't believe. My MX™1100 is still not recognized.

There is also no uninstaller. This would be necessary, as several kernel extension are installed by the program.

KEVINN  If LCC doesn't recognize your Logitech Mice, just make sure that you don't have other mouse drivers (ex. SteerMouse) installed on your system. Uninstall them and upon restart, it'll recognize your mouse within the pref pane.

Recently switched to test out LCC and will be sticking with it for a while. SteerMouse takes around 3mb of memory and LCC Daemon takes 6-7mb of memory.

CED  The "GoogleSoftwareUpdate" is still installed in this new version. Who said "Don't be evil" ?

KLAGRECA  Interesting. I have the "Google Updater" installed and it's not informing me of this new version of GEarth. If it can't do it's job, what good is it???

CED  This is a great software, but the "GoogleSoftwareUpdate" which is installed along it is a really bad example. Why does Google want to run it all the time ? What kind of information are collected ?

This kind of behaviour will keep me away from Google Chrome for a very long time when it will arrive on Mac OS X...

YOSHINATSU  This "conspiracy" thing is being taken too far these days...

No one's spying on you.

And even if they do, you clicked "Agree" to that disclaimer thingie.

It's their right if you did.

CED  Beware of new activation process introduced in version 1.35. This is linked to the serial number of your computer.

I have hundreds of apps. Imagine the pain if all of them would have such system when upgrading your hardware. Also the application could not be to be registered if the shinywhitebox web site would be unavailable.

There is no insurance that the web site would still exist in 1 or 2 years. This activation process makes your investment extremely risky.

Otherwise, this is a great app with great functionnalities.

OLIPOWER  I agree. What a lame way to go by the developer. Why oh why... Piracy? Well, he has a popular app, so I assume he also has a proper cashflow from loyal customers (like me)...

Hmm, then I'd say greed is the answer. But why suffer usability for greed?

CED  Leo Spill - What an arrogant way of answering. And I do not think you are right.

First, DevonThink uses its own database, and stores all the files in the database. this has several implications :

- If the database is getting corrupted, you loose all the files stored inside.

- The database is not able to store any type of files unlike KIT.

- Nobody can say what future is, and if Devon Techologies will support its products longer than Reinvented Software.

CED  My main complaint is that the driver is not compaptible with Expose. I found no way to configure some buttons to use Expose once this driver installed.

A driver should ADD functionalities to the OS, not remove them...
