User Feedback e-mails from FlashGet users
I am a software designer/developer and I'm always looking for useful tools to make
my life easier. FlashGet certainly takes alot of stress out of my day! Even with my cable
modem, downloads can still be painfully slow, not to mention having to keep all of the
patches, upgrades and betas organized. Then FlashGet was featured through the C|Net
newsletter and now my workday is no longer filled with the drudgery of painfully slow
downloads. Such a relatively simple concept, so brilliantly executed! Congratulations on
creating a truly unique and powerful utility that no one should be without. I've been
recommending to everyone I know!
Keep up the great job!

Hi!
I just felt like dropping a line about your WONDERFUL product FlashGet.
Probably the most useful download-tool I've seen in months.
Until I got it, I used an E-Mail service to get large files over long distances with slow
connections. Disadvantage was, that the files arrived one day late ( if at all. you didn't
have any control either ). And now I just don't bother about sizes etc. And with an
ISDN-connection it really makes sense.
So, keep up the good work.
Bye
