US CLIE Developer Support approaches an end

[sUnShInE]

I just checked one of my spam accounts, and found the following final death spike email:

Sony Electronics Inc. hereby announces pursuant to the CLIE(R) handheld Development Membership Agreement that the CLIE Handheld Developer Website and all related services shall terminate effective December 31, 2004. After this date, the CLIE Handheld Developer Website, Developer Tools, and related Services will no longer be available for use/download, and Sony shall provide no further support. Sony would like to thank to great number of dedicated developers who have supported the CLIE Handheld platform the past several years.
