We are now officially in the "coming 1st quarter 2010" period. It doesn't appear that the schedule has slipped all that much - primarily the importation of notes is not up as quickly as possible. However, from my perspective there is one major omission in the "coming 1st quarter 2010" period - making notes useful. My personal list of what this constitutes:
1) all types of links working in Notes
2) copy & paste into Notes not crashing, supporting illustrations etc.
3) set cursor at title when no title is autogenerated on adding a note
4) ability to globally control the title being reference only or reference and text
5) ability to expand/contract notes at the title level
6) ability to sequence notes
7) ability to control note color at the file level
Any others that you consider essential?
