    Thanks

    If you were in the Beta program months ago. As you are not ... after it
    is released.

    alot of 3GL developers treat databases as excel spreadsheets,
    unfortunately.
    Wasnt 9i release about 9 months after it was announced? I believe it
    was announced at Oracle World in September 2000, then released what
    june/july 2001?

    Its typically a year or so after release before you see many jobs
    advertising that they are using it. Might be longer now, since with
    the slow economy there is alot less new development.
