On April 5, 1999, VOICE will hold another IRC SpeakUp session with
Sundial Systems. The topic of this discussion will be Sundial's latest
product, the Rover Pack.
"Rover Pack -- our new desktop navigation and enhancement product.
It's the result of
bringing Orange Hill Software into the Sundial family and is based
on their previous
Workplace Solution (and Icon Central) products. It's got all the
great tools of those products
plus a whole new set of additional features.
"Why "Rover" and what does that have to do with anything? Well,
Rover, your trustly retriever,
"fetches" desktop objects for you without you having to know where
they are. And it takes the form
of a small window that "roves" around your desktop to always be at
your side... but not in the way of
getting your work done.
"Rover also provides a direct link to the other tools included in
the product... so we've chosen to
name the entire package after it -- the Rover Pack." -- Randell
Flint, Sundial Systems
As always, the SpeakUp will be held on the WEBBnet IRC network in the
#voice channel at 8pm US Eastern (5pm US Pacific, 0:00 GMT on Tuesday).
Everyone is welcome to visit and encouraged to participate. For more
detailed information on attending VOICE meetings, IRC client software
to use and WEBBnet servers to connect to, visit the Meeting Info page

Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you there.
