[ZendTo] Re: Windows client?

[Jules]

That's very useful, thanks. If there's enough take-up, I could make it a 
permanent licence per user. So $10 per user gets you that user forever. 
If that's sufficient to cover my costs, that would be fine by me. It's 
only an idea at the moment, we need to see how hard it's going to be to 
implement first.

Jules.
