For PhonTuner - PPC Version
Fiona Callison:
Just to say thank you - it worked perfectly. I'd also like to say that I am an enormous fan of this product (within 24 hours). I know you market it for professional musicians but there's clearly an opportunity in the harassed working Moms market too. Trying to tune my 7 year old son's cello when he's playing somewhere without a piano is a nightmare but this really helps. He's also much more patient with the process now that he can see what I am trying to achieve. Good for unaccompanied singing practice too! Many thanks for such a great product!

Doug Heaton:
It's just hard to practice my cello without it being in tune :-) I'm a beginner and found your program to be the most intuitive and easy to read (and tune). With PhonTuner I can use my Pocket PC at home or in the classroom to make sure I'm in tune and hitting the right notes. Well done.

Dana Ross:
Thank you for the upgrade. I think that it really does behave better with my daughter's violin and my son's bass. I'm very happy that I bought your software.

Don Lloyd:
I absolutely love my PhonTuner program. It is by far the BEST guitar tuner I have ever found or used and works flawlessly. How could you even improve it, it's so phenomenal?
Is the upgrade free, because the current version is awesome? I want to ensure that "new" really is better, because the old version seems tremendous to me.
Thanks for making such a great product. I had spent about 20 or more years working with various guitar tuners and have never found anything even close to as good as PhonTuner!!!

Yes, please feel free to use my comments on your site. I'm doing any musician a favor by recommending such an excellent software program to anyone needing to tune a stringed or other instrument. If more people knew about your software - they would buy it. I show it to other guitar players all the time, and they are amazed. I'm sure you have probably already gotten orders from my demonstrations of your product.

When Handango asked in a recent survey what my favorite PPC software was, the instant answer was PhonTuner. It's exceedingly useful, well-designed, and versatile--and the display design is ingenious.
To put it formally, you rock. Many, many thanks.

For PhonTuner - Palm Version
Neal E. Tornberg:
As far as I'm concerned, PhonTuner is a "Killer Ap" for the Tungsten - i.e. I'd buy one in order to use the software. I play trumpet and a few other instruments on an amateur basis; finding a tuner that handles a variety of environments is a non-trivial exercise. PhonTuner does better than any of the several I've bought and tried. It has certainly impressed those to whom I've shown it.

Alan Garner:
I am a Bass singer with the Sydney Philharmonia Choir in Australia and I find PhonTuner to be an invaluable aid when I need to determine what note I am singing and to help me fine tune my singing. And now that version 2.2.2 has the pitch pipe facility I can now hear the pitch I wish to sing as well. It's a fantastic product!!! Well done!!!

My PDA is a Palm Tungsten C. I would love to be able to run the HandDee Spectrum Analyzer, the HandDee Electronic Organ and Piano Chords, and the Phonature Music Visualizer on the Tungsten C. Could you please port these applications to the Palm OS soon. I would greatly appreciate it.

For PhonTuner - UIQ Version
Palmtop User Magazine (Symbian Software Review):
PhonTuner is arguably the best musician's tool yet created for a PDA. It is certainly one of the best looking, with a clever spiralling frequency scale that makes the most of the limited screen width available. .... The icing on the cake is a surprisingly useful visualisation in the centre ....
