Apple should have a real incentive to keep FB^3 alive. I hope you contact them and ask for help. There have been several good ideas put forth tonight which could get you some interim income before the final release. I'm not close enough to give advice, but I don't think you are dead by a long shot. Pllease don't give up. In the mean time, I think a lot of us would be willing to loan money to you on the condition that it be repaid in 5 or 10 years, starting a year from now. I would go for $1000. Stew
