DEVONthink, DEVONnote

DEVONtechnologies has updated four of its key programs, primarily versions of DEVONthink meant to tide users over until the shipment of v2.0. DEVONthink Pro and Pro Office have both been updated to v1.5.3, and contain a new global script for pulling abstracts from DEVONagent, as well as improvements in handling RSS feeds. Pro Office in particular has reintroduced an Image Capture-based scanning module, which the developer alleges was broken due to changes in Mac OS X Leopard.

All versions of DEVONthink -- including the new Personal 1.9.15 -- should have better Camino support, faster Spotlight updating, a refined inline ad filter, and automatic importing of MDWN files as plain text. These latter updates also apply to DEVONnote, which has similarly upgraded to v1.9.15. Versions of DEVONthink range in cost from $40 to $150; DEVONnote is $20. In each case, Mac OS X 10.4 or later is required.
