I looked into it last year because I was excited about the Mac version. I signed up for notification and sent them an email asking for a status update since the web page hadn't been updated.

From revisiting the site, I see they still haven't changed any information. I guess I'm interested on feedback as well, but so far I haven't been impressed with their communication.

This thing looks GREAT!!  Something that would help me out beyond what I have now.  For $20 it looks like a deal. 

Does anyone else use this product?

Looks pretty similar to powerpoint with a foobal feild background.  Its worth 20 bucks imho to help streamline the process of making a playbook.

I played with it into the night and I like it!  There are some things that I would want to be able to do but it might be because I'm not familiar with the software yet.  One thing I will need to do is Print it and put it with the rest of the Playbook and I haven't found out how to do that yet. 

In all I would give it a 3 out of 5 right now...

This thing is driving me crazy... I can't get the playbook to print at all.

I have tried everyway possible to contact them and have been completely ignored to the point where I have looked up the owner and have tried to call his personal phone with nothing working.

Have you ever contracted this company and how?  Also, are you able to print?

From what I remembered you have to convert to a pdf file so you can print it.

Try this ...maybe.... 

Click the attachment and it will ask for a password
Click cancel
Click create PDF online
On right side click select file to convert

Not sure if that will work but its a try

Also on the bottom it says easily create a PDF file but it cost like $90 for the yr.

There has to be a free download somewhere maybe CNET?
