v3.something GarageSale I got offered another update (this happens quite
regular), lists a few bug fixes, install update.
Turns out this updates me from v3.x to v4.0.1 which is actually a PAID

Do any of you 10.5.2 early adopters use Plaxo to sync Address Book +
iCal with a PC (or other Macs)? There are reports that 10.5.2 has
