Q: what's the rough ETA on this project? Of course i understand that if u haven't even started coding it, u won't have a specific date for us, but just ballpark it. Are we talking 3 months, 12 months, 3 years? What?

After reading this thread...
And as a software engineer myself...
It's obvious that PT must be redesigned from scratch...
And targeted directly at PO and HM.

Even with several talented engineers...
And understanding that this is ONLY a poker tracker...
That is a minimum 1-2 year project.

After getting back into poker...
And buying the latest version of PT 2 months ago...
I was ** SHOCKED ** that is was virtually the same product I bought 3 years ago.

It's really like something out of the 50s...
And looks great with a lava lamp.

If they blink and just try to tweak it...
PT is dead... if it's not already waaaaay too late.

r u serious?
I have exactly the opposite reaction -- i really can't believe how good it is. i don't know if I've ever opened it up and *not* been flabbergasted at the fact that i only paid $50 for this thing. I mean, honestly, knowing what i know now, I would gladly pay $5,000 for it, as would I'm sure any other high-stakes player who relies on it as heavily as I do. Now I admit that i haven't tried HM, and it may very well blow PT out of the water, but suggesting that PT is dead is redonkulous. It's an awesome, awesome piece of software that continues to deliver. Saying that it's the best $50 I have ever spent in my life would not be an understatement when u consider the gains it's helped me realize.
