Recent reviews
Excellent 4.3 /5 from 31 reviews
Disappointing overall. Wellness / SPA area was anything else but "hygenically acceptable"... steamroom had bad smells, door didn't close properly; jacuzzi had dark spots on the water filters; plastic cover of pool was laying in the water covering 20% of the pool, nobody around to clean or maintain.
We spent one night at this elegant but low-key hotel/spa, and wished we had spent more time there. Gozo, and the hotel in particular, were both welcome respites from the busyness of Malta. The hotel is immaculate and beautifully appointed, the staff is pleasant and attentive, the spa lovely. And the setting is spectacular with its rugged cliffs and neolithic dolmen just a short walk away. The restaurant served excellent food and we enjoyed dining there...We travel a lot for pleasure, and this hotel is exceptional.
Relaxing for a whole week
A pleasant stay and so peaceful. No wifi available in room.
we came there to spend two very quiet and peaceful days. we found both and came back home extremely satisfied.

CLEC-2 is required for the activation of mouse platelets by bacterial DNA mimetics

Conference (2015, June 22)

Aims: To evaluate whether CpG ODNs affect platelet activation and thrombus formation via CLEC-2 and TLR9. Methods: We incubated washed platelets or whole blood from TLR9-, MyD88- or CLEC-2- deficient mice with CpG ODNs. We performed platelet aggregometry, flow cytometric binding and platelet activation assays as well as signal transduction analyses. Thrombus formation and fibrin generation were also analyzed by intravital microscopy in mouse microcirculation upon intravenous injection of CpG ODNs. Results: We show that CpG ODNs bind on platelet surface and are internalized. They activate platelets and induce their aggregation. TLR9- or MyD88-deficient platelets aggregated normally in response to CpG ODN. Interestingly, platelets deficient for the C-type lectin receptor CLEC-2 were unable to capture and internalize CpG ODN. CLEC-2 deficiency abolished CpG ODN-induced platelet activation and aggregation. CpG ODN stimulated CLEC-2 dependent tyrosine kinase pathway and Syk phosphorylation. In vivo, intravenously injected CpG ODN interacted with platelets adhered to laser injured arteriolar endothelia and promoted fibrin generation and thrombus growth. Conclusion: CLEC-2 mediates CpG ODN uptake and subsequent platelet activation, independently of TLR9, which may serve an important role in the interplay between platelets and immunity.

High-dose oral intake of serotonin induces valvular heart disease in rabbits.

Carcinoid tumors are rare neuroendocrine malignancies, often originating from enterochromaffin cells in the gastrointestinal tract. They can secrete serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), which is largely inactivated by the liver. Carcinoid heart disease occurs when tumor cells metastasize to the liver, as the vasoactive substances produced are able to reach the systemic circulation via the hepatic vein, causing deposition of fibrous tissue on the endocardial surfaces of the heart. It is predominantly manifested by right-sided valvular heart disease (VHD). Scavenging enzymes in the pulmonary endothelium may explain why left-sided cardiac involvement is unusual. The severity of cardiac damage is correlated with the plasmatic levels of serotonin, but the lowspecificity of serotonin for cardiac damage suggests that serotonin may be necessary but not sufficient to induce cardiac lesions. Therefore, other factors combined with serotonin might be required to induce VHD. However, recent animal studies confirmed the development of carcinoid-like valvular deposits in rats after 3 months of daily subcutaneous/intraperitoneal serotonin injections to avoid the liver first-pass clearance.Whether oral administration of serotonin can also induce VHD is unknown. We hypothesized that long-term oral serotonin overload in rabbits can lead to VHD, mimicking serotonin-induced lesions of carcinoid heart disease. We demonstrate, for the first time that high dose long-term oral administration of serotonin can lead to VHD in rabbits. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 42 (3 ULg)

Background A limitation of current antiplatelet therapies is their inability to separate thrombotic events from bleeding occurrences. Better understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to platelet activation is of importance for the development of improved therapies. Recently, protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) have emerged as critical regulators of platelet function. Methods and Results This is the first report implicating the dual-specificity phosphatase 3 (DUSP3) in platelet signaling and thrombosis. This phosphatase is highly expressed in human and mouse platelets. Platelets from DUSP3-deficient mice displayed a selective impairment of aggregation and granule secretion mediated through the collagen receptor glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and the C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2). DUSP3-deficient mice were more resistant to collagen- and epinephrine-induced thromboembolism, compared to wild-type mice, and showed severely impaired thrombus formation upon ferric chloride-induced carotid artery injury. Intriguingly, bleeding times were not altered in DUSP3-deficient mice. At the molecular level, DUSP3 deficiency impaired Syk tyrosine phosphorylation, subsequently reducing phosphorylation of PLCγ2 and calcium fluxes. To investigate DUSP3 function in human platelets, a novel small-molecule inhibitor of DUSP3 was developed. This compound specifically inhibited collagen and CLEC-2-induced human platelet aggregation, thereby phenocopying the effect of DUSP3 deficiency in murine cells. Conclusions DUSP3 plays a selective and essential role in collagen- and CLEC-2-mediated platelet activation and thrombus formation in vivo. Inhibition of DUSP3 may prove therapeutic for arterial thrombosis. This is the first time a PTP, implicated in platelet signaling, has been targeted with a small-molecule drug.

Over the last decade there has been a remarkable increase in prosthetic heart valve replacement and cardiac implantable electronic device utilization. Although capable of improving the quality and quantity of life of patients suffering from severe valvular heart disease or rhythm disorders, they are both subject to potentially life-threatening infection involving the endocardium, referred to as device infective endocarditis (DIE)1,2. The rate of prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) ranges from 1-6% to 15%, being higher in revision surgery1. The infection usually involves the junction between the sewing ring and the annulus, leading to perivalvular abscess, dehiscence, pseudo-aneurysms, and fistulae, or the leaflets of the prosthesis, leading to vegetations, cusp rupture, and perforation. Cardiac device-related infective endocarditis (CDRIE), to be distinguished from local device infection (pocket/generator), is defined as an infection involving the electrode leads, cardiac valve leaflets, or endocardial surface. An incidence of 1.4 per 1000 device-years of definite CDRIE has been reported3. DIE may occur at anytime, being related to surgery only in early cases. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 47 (24 ULg)

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is often used as a complementary finding in the diagnostic work-up of patients with aortic stenosis (AS). Whether soluble ST2, a new biomarker of cardiac stretch, is associated with symptomatic status and outcome in asymptomatic AS is unknown. sST2 and BNP levels were measured in 86 patients (74+/-13 years; 59 asymptomatic, 69%) with AS (<1.5 cm2) and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction who were followed-up for 26+/-16 months. Both BNP and sST2 were associated with NYHA class but sST2 (>23 ng/mL, AUC = 0.68, p<0.01) was more accurate to identify asymptomatic patients or those who developed symptoms during follow-up. sST2 was independently related to left atrial index (p<0.0001) and aortic valve area (p = 0.004; model R2 = 0.32). A modest correlation was found with BNP (r = 0.4, p<0.01). During follow-up, 29 asymptomatic patients (34%) developed heart failure symptoms. With multivariable analysis, peak aortic jet velocity (HR = 2.7, p = 0.007) and sST2 level (HR = 1.04, p = 0.03) were independent predictors of cardiovascular events. In AS, sST2 levels could provide complementary information regarding symptomatic status, new onset heart failure symptoms and outcome. It might become a promising biomarker in these patients.

BACKGROUND: Mitral regurgitation is a frequent valvular heart disease affecting around 2.5 % of the population with prevalence directly related to aging. Degeneration of mitral valve is broadly considered as a passive ongoing pathophysiological process and little is known about its physiological deregulation. The purpose of this study was to highlight new biomarkers of mitral regurgitation in order to decipher the underlying pathological mechanism as well as to allow the diagnosis and the monitoring of the disease. RESULTS: Modulation of various blood proteins expression was examined in patients suffering from different grades of mitral regurgitation (mild, moderate and severe) compared to healthy controls. To this end, several routine clinical assays and the multi analyte profile technology targeting 184 proteins were used. High-density lipoprotein, apolipoprotein-A1, haptoglobin and haptoglobin-alpha2 chain levels significantly decreased proportionally to the degree of mitral regurgitation when compared to controls. High-density lipoprotein and apolipoprotein-A1 levels were associated with effective regurgitant orifice area and regurgitant volume. Apolipoprotein-A1 was an independent predictor of severe mitral regurgitation. Moreover, with ordinal logistic regression, apolipoprotein-A1 remained the only independent factor associated with mitral regurgitation. In addition, myxomatous mitral valves were studied by immunocytochemistry. We observed an increase of LC3, the marker of autophagy, in myxomatous mitral valves compared with healthy mitral valves. CONCLUSION: These potential biomarkers of mitral regurgitation highlighted different cellular processes that could be modified in myxomatous degenerescence: reverse cholesterol transport, antioxidant properties and autophagy.

OBJECTIVES: Cardiovascular involvement is recognized as a poor prognostic factor in systemic sclerosis (SSc). The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of nailfold video-capillaroscopy (NVC), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) blood level and exercise echocardiography to predict the occurrence of cardiovascular events in SSc. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled 65 patients with SSc (age 54+/-14 years, 30% female) followed in CHU Sart-Tilman, Liege, Belgium. All patients underwent graded semi-supine exercise echocardiography. Both baseline resting pulmonary hypertension (PH) and PH during follow-up (FUPH) were defined as systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (sPAP)>35 mmHg, and exercise-induced PH (EIPH) as sPAP>50 mmHg during exercise. RESULTS: EIPH was present in 21 patients. During FU (27+/-18 months), 13 patients developed FUPH and 9 presented cardiovascular complications. Patients with cardiovascular events were significantly older (63+/-14 vs 52+/-13 years; P=0.03), presented more frequently NVC grade>2 (89 vs 43%; P=0.009), had higher resting and exercise sPAP (30+/-6 vs 24+/-6; P=0.007 and 57+/-13 vs 44+/-13 vs mmHg; P=0.01, respectively), and higher BNP blood level (112+/-106 vs 26+/-19 pg/ml; P=0.0001). After adjustment for age and gender, NVC grade>2 (ss=2.4+/-1.1; P=0.03), EIPH (ss=2.30+/-1.13; P=0.04), FUPH (ss=0.24+/-0.09; P=0.01 and ss=3.52+/-1.16; P=0.002, respectively;) and BNP (ss=0.08+/-0.04; P=0.02) were independent predictors of CV events. Beyond age, an incremental value of EIPH, BNP and NVC grade>2 was predictive of cardiovascular events (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Cardiovascular complications are not rare in SSc (18%). NVC, BNP blood level assessment and exercise echocardiography could be useful tools to identify patients at risk of SSc. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 25 (1 ULg)

BACKGROUND: Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is increasingly used for the diagnosis and management of cardiac diseases. Recent studies have reported immediate post-CMR DNA double-strand breaks in T lymphocytes. We sought to evaluate CMR-induced DNA damage in lymphocytes, alterations of blood cells, and their temporal persistence. METHODS AND RESULTS: In 20 prospectively enrolled healthy men (31.4+/-7.9 years), blood was drawn before and after (1-2 hours, 2 days, 1 month, and 1 year) unenhanced 1.5T CMR. Blood cell counts, cell death, and activation status of lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, and platelets were evaluated. The first 2-hour post-CMR were characterized by a small increase of lymphocyte B and neutrophil counts and a transient drop of total lymphocytes because of a decrease in natural killer cells. Among blood cells, only neutrophils and monocytes displayed slight and transient activation. DNA double-strand breaks in lymphocytes were quantified through flow cytometric analysis of H2AX phosphorylation (gamma-H2AX). gamma-H2AX intensity in T lymphocytes did not change early after CMR but increased significantly at day 2 </=1 month before returning to baseline levels of 1-year post-CMR. CONCLUSIONS: Unenhanced CMR is associated with minor but significant immediate blood cell alterations or activations figuring inflammatory response, as well as DNA damage in T lymphocytes observed from day 2 until the first month but disappearing at 1-year follow-up. Although further studies are required to definitely state whether CMR can be used safely, our findings already call for caution when it comes to repeat this examination within a month.

Makeup With Minerals?
What do you think of the new makeup products containing finely ground minerals? Are they safe?
Answer (Published 7/10/2007)
From what I've seen and read, the new mineral-based makeup powders look good. The products seem to impart a natural look to the skin that doesn't seem "made up" and, from what I've been able to determine, are safe to use and may be less irritating than more conventional foundations and other cosmetics used on the skin.

Mineral makeup powders contain zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, mica and iron oxides. The only one of these I'm concerned about is titanium dioxide that has been "micronized" or reduced to "nanoparticles" one millionth of a millimeter in size. Some studies have indicated that when exposed to light, titanium dioxide nanoparticles may prompt formation of free radicals that could damage cells, and others have suggested that the tiny particles of this mineral can enter the brain and cause oxidative stress (most particles are too big to penetrate the blood-brain barrier). While evidence is far from certain that titanium dioxide nanoparticles present any danger, to be safe, I would steer clear of cosmetics with "micronized titanium dioxide" listed on the labels. I also suggest checking labels to be sure that no undesirable chemicals have been added in to a mineral-based cosmetic you're considering. You might log on to the Web site of The Green Guide Institute at www.thegreenguide.com for a list of cosmetic products that contain larger, safer mineral particles. The nonprofit Environmental Working Group, www.ewg.org, lists on its Web site 250 personal care products that contain one or more of 57 types of nanoparticles that the organization deems "poorly studied" and potentially hazardous.
Some manufacturers add synthetic materials to mineral powders to help them spread more evenly, but I haven't seen any evidence suggesting that these are harmful.

Near to city area, the sanctuary has lot of greenary and even you can see few animals and birds. Guide is good and the session was good.
A Very nice landscape -- more aptly expressed as a misunderstood habitat
Grassland - thorny scrubs one of the very few last remaining homes of GIB - very difficult to see GIB - but can learn more about them at the forest interpretation center..... Very good for seeing other ground dwelling birds like sand grouses and Indian courser
After reading all the reviews and no other work to do, i decided to give a visit to this sanctuary. I decided to reach early, but eventually i ended up reaching around 1 pm in the afternoon. When i reached there, i found the gate was locked and there was no one for enquiry. Eventually a passerby advised i can...
If you are lucky then you will find the animals right when you are in jeep. Make sure you carry suncreen or water with you as its quite hot in day time. Thick forest and great place of photography for forest lovers.
The sanctuary is 22 Kms from Solapur. The last few Kms road is pretty bad....not maintained for years. Entrance fee for Two persons + car was Rs.160. You need immense luck and patience to sight the Great Indian Bustard ( Maldhok in Hindi). We spent a few hours in the morning and again between 4:00 PM and 6:30PM in the...
This is fantastic place for birders, One can cover grassland species here....Sandgrouse, Quails, Larks, Indian Coursers, Great Indian Bustard, Red Collered and Eurasian Doves. Also Black Bucks and Monitor Lizards, and Raptors such as Laggar Falcon, Bonnellis Eagle,etc
Vehicles are not permitted inside. We went searching fir Blackbuk and GIB. We spotted Blackbuk but could not find GIB as they usually roam in the inner areas of the sanctuary. Watch tower stands good. Overall a visit is enough.
You have to leave your vehicle outside the entry gate and walk inside. The watchtower to the left of the entrance offers a bird's eye view of the sanctuary. A narrow path leads from the gate to the viewing hut. The narrow slits cut into the wall on three sides offer a low view of the forest. There are benches...
How many gates are available to visit the sanctuary and which one is best ? Also let me know the detailed road directions to the sanctuary ?

Cancer Health Center
From Bad to Better: U.S. Cancer Rates Continue to Drop
Racial Disparities Improve, but Persist
Gains were most impressive among African-American and Hispanic men. Death rates from 1999 to 2008 for African-American and Hispanic men dropped by 2.4% and 2.3% per year, respectively, compared to an annual decrease of 1.8% for all men.
Despite that progress, the report found that cancer disparities persist for many minorities.
African-American men, for example, have a 15% higher cancer incidence rate than white men and a 33% higher death rate.
There's less cancer diagnosed among African-American women compared to white women, but African-American women have a 16% higher death rate than white women.
Some Cancers Increasing
The report includes a special section highlighting seven cancers that are on the rise.
Those include:
- Mouth and throat cancers caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), the same virus that causes cervical cancer
- Esophageal adenocarcinoma, which is linked to chronic acid reflux, obesity, and smoking
- Melanoma skin cancer, caused by exposure to UV radiation from the sun and tanning beds
- Liver cancer, which may be related in part to increases in hepatitis B and C infections
- Thyroid cancer, for unknown reasons, but may be because of better detection
- Kidney cancer, which may be related to rising obesity
- Pancreatic cancer, which is linked to smoking, obesity, and family history
The Rising Risk of HPV
Researchers saw some of the steepest increases in HPV-related oral cancers among middle-aged men.
"So rates were higher and increased at a faster rate for men in the 55 to 64 age group compared to men over 65," says Edgar P. Simard, PhD, MPH, a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society. That was surprising, Simard says, because cancer rates are typically higher in adults over age 65.
HPV infection of the mouth and throat has been linked to oral sex.
HPV-related cancers usually take years to grow, which is why they're often successfully caught in women who get regular cervical cancer screenings.
But Simard notes that doctors don't check for HPV infection in the throat. "There really is no early detection method that's currently available."
Additionally, doctors aren't sure if the HPV vaccine will prevent oral as well as genital cancers. "At the moment, that's unknown," he says.

As a result, clients can run their most important workloads with no application performance degradation.
IBM also unveiled new capabilities for PureFlex and Flex Systems that will provide the management and administration tools clients need to effectively increase their datacenter utilization. These include: integrated end-to-end storage management; mobile access to the system for clients through a wide range of mobile devices (Android, Blackberry and iOS); and centralized control of user id's and passwords across nodes and chassis for greater system security. These features will build upon the capabilities of Flex System Manager to help organizations more efficiently create and manage their IT infrastructures.
Recent research from IDC illustrates that one of the main challenges IT organizations face today is around the deployment, management, and administration of servers – which are consuming a larger portion of the overall IT budget and consequently leaving fewer resources to spend on new projects. Sixteen years ago the bulk of IT budgets was spent on hardware, with less than 30 percent on management and administration. By 2013, that relationship will have completely flipped and management now will drive nearly 70 percent of all expenditures. (1)
"Clients are telling us that when they look to upgrade the legacy servers and storage that constitute their current IT infrastructures they don't want to spend too much time and effort tuning and managing the new systems," said Andrew Monshaw, GM IBM PureFlex. "These are the companies that are turning to PureSystems to reduce their costs and increase their datacenter utilization."
To date, more than 1,000 PureFlex and Flex Systems have shipped in more than 40 countries around the world. Clients are installing IBM PureFlex or Flex System to help reduce IT cost and complexity. For example:
- Finnish IT outsourcing services and data center services provider Academica will use PureFlex to rededicate time formerly spent on IT maintenance and support to driving customer service support and developing new services. As a result of this new allocation of resources, Academica will be able to focus on expanding its business by improving services to meet evolving customer requirements.
- China's Xi'an University of Architecture and Technology will use IBM PureFlex to help improve the quality of education services offered to students and launch the university's Digital Campus platform and student Campus Card.
- India's Thane Bharat Sahakari Bank selected a Smarter Computing solution built on IBM PureFlex over its existing environment to create an intelligent infrastructure designed to help the bank manage growth, introduce new client services and boost its profitability.
"IBM PureSystems is the ideal choice because it helps us in three main areas," said Shriram Date, CEO, Thane Bharat Sahakari Bank. "First, it reduces our cost and complexity - simplifying and reducing steps across the complete IT life cycle; second, it provides additional security by helping reduce enterprise risk with trusted protection built in from the hardware up; and third, PureSystems significantly reduces new application deployment times."
New Flex System Components
The IBM Flex System goes beyond competitor's blade configurations and provides the elements for IBM PureFlex. IBM Flex Systems are built-to-order offerings for clients who want to custom build and tune configurations to their specific requirements. This allows them to select the specific compute, systems networking and optional storage and management required to support their specific workloads.
As part of today's announcement, IBM is unveiling new and enhanced elements for all four aspects of the Flex System including:
- Management: A New version of IBM Flex System Manager that will allow clients to bring new components online faster, provide better monitoring and alerts and more easily integrate applications, services and workloads through a new, even easier user interface and mobile access.
- Storage: Integrated Flex System V7000 storage node with built-in virtualization, intelligent tiering, and IBM Real-time Compression® that enables storing up to five times as much data in the same physical disk space.
- Processors: New POWER7+, x440 and x220 compute nodes will provide clients with a wide range of advanced processing technology to deliver workload optimization and choice for client datacenters. Also, all POWER compute nodes are now available as build-to-order components in Flex System.
- Networking: New converged fabric switches providing Fibre Channel over Ethernet and new adaptors will allow clients to choose from a wide variety of advanced networking technologies that integrate into existing network topologies and provide optimized bandwidth for their workloads.
IBM Business Partner Ecosystem Continues to Expand
For IBM Business Partners, PureSystems creates a new services opportunity to help clients solve the complexity of enterprise IT, reduce costs and encourage innovation. From resellers to distributors and Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), more than 2500 Business Partners have received PureSystems certifications. PureSystems currently run tens of thousands of existing ISV applications across four operating environments including Windows, Linux, AIX, and IBM i operating system. Additionally, Business Partners have created more than 250 new solutions and applications that are optimized to run on PureSystems. These patterns of expertise, which span 20 industries, can be accessed through the IBM PureSystems Centre. They include leading solutions from some of the world's largest ISVs, including ERP systems and applications for the banking, marketing, healthcare and energy industries. Additionally, partners are able to perform many of the configuration and deployment services that previously came only from IBM and are optional and optionally available to be performed by qualified business partners.
To help address the new opportunity that PureSystems presents, IBM is also providing training, marketing, certifications and technical validation support to its Business Partners. For instance, dozens of IBM Innovation Centers in cities such as Bangalore, Dublin, Johannesburg and Shanghai are helping Business Partners develop and test their applications using IBM PureSystems. Business Partners can also bring their clients to IBM Innovation Centers to see PureSystems technology at work.

Private Cultural Tour: Day Trip to Mahabalipuram and Dakshinachitra from Chennai information and booking
Tour description provided by Viator
On this private tour from Chennai, journey back in time to discover traditional South Indian culture through its artistic, architectural and religious heritage. With your private guide, explore a traditional Dravidian (South Indian) village and visit its museum and art workshops to get a unique insight into local customs. Then, after lunch at a local restaurant, discover excellent examples of Dravidian architecture in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed city of Mahabalipuram, featuring countless impressive rock-cut sculptures and temples. Private air-conditioned transportation and hotel pickup and drop-off are included.
After pickup from your hotel in the morning, your private guide will take you by air-conditioned vehicle to the village of Dakshinachitra, located about 18 miles (29 km) outside of Chennai. Spend approximately 45 minutes in Dakshinachitra, meaning 'A Picture of the South,' which preserves the traditional Dravidian way of life. See traditional Indian homes, explore the open-air museum, and visit the artisan workshops to learn about the Dravidian crafts of several regions in South India including Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh – a great activity for kids. Here, you may see traditional theater performances as well as local craftsmen making pottery and baskets, weaving silk and building puppets. Then, drive approximately 14.5 miles (23.3 km) to Mahabalipuram, or what is now called Mamallapuram. This UNESCO World Heritage-listed city is full of rock-cut monuments built between the 7th and 9th centuries. These structures, most of which were built to honor Hindu gods, are some of the oldest existing examples of Dravidian architecture. With your guide, visit several cave temples and sculpted reliefs including Five Rathas, Arjuna Dhabas, Krishna Mandap, Krishna Butterball and Shore Temple. Your guide will point out the Buddhist elements of these impressive structures and explain the historical significance of the sites you pass. In between sightseeing, enjoy an authentic Indian lunch at a nearby restaurant in Mahabalipuram. After your full-day tour, you'll be driven back to your Chennai hotel in the evening.

This is your resource to discuss support topics with your peers, and learn from each other.
I have uploaded three playbook applications. two in the list
another is ebook app.
here is my story:
In late January, I saw the playbook introduced on www.blackberry.cn in my country.
Then, I started developing the first playbook for application, the middle of all the difficulties experienced, and ultimately resolved.
I would like to talk about the following:
And as a healthy market, only manufacturers are fully competitive in order to make more people enjoy better service. As a developer, it is obliged to create such a market also.
As a leading mobile phone manufacturers, RIM will have to face in the Tablet PC Apple, Google competition. As we can see now, Apple ipad has a very large advantage in the flat-panel market.
but, For RIM, Software developed so far less than expected 1000, if the app world to reach 4000, still requires great effort.
not like apple's ipad, which is born after iphone & ithouch. The playbook is the QNX operating system, RIM's first generation product,
how to catch up the step of apple.my personal thoughts
First: RIM should encourage developers who had signed application to develop more software for PlayBook. March 31, time is not much, but for a newbie, "the installation of the environment" and "signature" of the work requires a lot of time.
Second: If possible, as soon as possible, release real Playbook devcie to developers before public release in April, let developers do a comprehensive test . if no change. the software problems encountered in Apirl , also require the developer to modify the software. The public users feel the software full of bugs also , and will loss of interest in the playbook as well.
Developers hope that RIM will be better! ! !

I agree with your second point, however I disagree with your first. I was totally new to Adobe AIR when I started working on my apps in midst of December, but I managed to get them finished even before the fist February deadline, despite having 6 university exams. There has been plenty of time I think to get the developers on board, the new ones will more likely just be joining for the free PlayBook.
I think he is referring to total developer newbs, not AIR newbs...At some point we were all newbs to something.
IF, RIM continued the offer, I hope they would up the criteria a lot in terms of quality of the product that would result in receiving a free PB.
Also, it would be helpful if RIM announced application areas that are in need. You would then see a flood of apps to fill that area (e.g social apps, maping, CRM, etc.)
Lastly, RIM will get to know ISV's by their involvement and apps already submitted. If they "contracted" or "assisted" in apps to fill certain areas as well, then both would win.
But in general, I agree. If you're done with your app, start moving on the next one.
jtegen what kind of quality criteria do you have in mind and more importantly: Why / how are the current criteria wrong in your opinion? Are you suggesting you've seen apps that are in your opinion not worthy of receiving a free PlayBook but yet got awarded one?
I have 2 apps up for approval now and I have more planned but I need proper filesystem support and a camera API before i can even get started.
In my opinion the best encouragement possible would be for any developer deemed eligible to receive a PlayBook to get it as soon as humanly possible. Preferrably even before the device is available at retail outlets. We can do a fair amount of stuff with the simulator but I'm convinced that the really good apps will only come when developers have access to the actual hardware.
I can't speak for everyone but personally i feel I've only just gotten started. Having the physical hardware is going to get me to do some REALLY good apps.

1000% Agree with that.
@themaco2: The free playbook offer for the current timeframe is fine. What I meant was that IF a new offer of a free PB was to be offered (lets say for the next year) for new developers to develop a new application for the device, I felt that the bar should be raised for that set of developers (not the current set). We all took the risk and time to iron out the system and are being rewarded for that effort by receiving a free PB. Assuming the 1.0+ SDKs are running smoothly, I felt that the quality or quantity of applications should be greater for the next set of free PB. In as much that once we all get the PB, our apps quality and quantity of features may increase. My comment was based on a risk and reward system. Greater the risk - the greater the reward. The risk will be less for a developer who joins in 6 months from now, so their effort should be greater to receive the same reward. Keep in mind, there has been no mention about a second offer from RIM. $0.02.
RIM has already defined the bar in which an application will receive a free PB this go around. I feel that the current bar is at a good height.
