I must have missed something.

If the application suite is written in Java, why would platform specific versions be necessary unless the developers used native method interface code in the implementation?

On the other hand, the company website says nothing about "pure Java."



The following paragraph effectively states the product is subscriptionware for an initial fee + 99 USD/year subscription for updates:

EIOffice 2004 is available now in.English, Chinese and Japanese-language editions. Pricing is US $398 and includes five years of free upgrades and unlimited support. The suite is also available with one year of updates and support for US $148, with license extentions available for US $99 per year. Special pricing programs are available from Evermore for corporate, educational, senior citizen, family and other groups.



Given that aspect of EIOffice and the unspecfied effect of allowing one's subscription to lapse, I will probably be sticking with SO/OO.
