And speaking of revenue makers...
...when will Apple start releasing "Page Packs" much like the "Jam Packs" for GarageBand? Granted, constructing a set of software instruments is substantially more involved than designing a set of templates for Pages, yet I have to believe (in spite of my perpetual amateur musician status and the Jam Packs that I own) that the demand for "Page Packs" focused on specific applications (marketing, legal, medical, education, etc.) has got to swamp the demand for "Jam Packs" for GarageBand. And if they are easy for Apple to make but hard for your average user to do on her own, then that's the definition of a revenue source.
Along those lines, does anyone know if the specifications for designing a Pages template are available to third-party developers? Much like there is a small market in Keynote themes (yet generally high-quality — see KeynotePro.com, KeynoteUser.com, Keynote Theme Park, and Keynote Gallery, to name a few), so too I could imagine independent developers creating specialized templates for Pages. One wonders how extensible Pages will turn out to be....
And speaking of revenue makers...
The manual actually explains exactly how to design a new template from scratch, step by step.
And speaking of revenue makers...
Oh, yeah.... that thing — the manual. *Blush* Didn't think of opening the manual.... (Guess since I haven't seen one on any other software for so long...!) Thanks, Rob: I'll have to dig it out and have a look!
