I didn't kiss a frog or anything close to it and have no intentions of doing so either. I only look at someone else's numbers from the point of view of determining if I should respect them as a Cache-Master that has a vast amount of experience actually finding caches or if they are a Geo-Noob like myself. As for myself, I care about my own numbers cause it provides a way for me and my daughter to keep track of what WE did (you have the wife, I have the daughter). She can look back and know exactually how my caches we did TOGETHER (I never cache without her). I likewise do not wish to dilute the "father / daughter" experience we have with kiss-a-frog type of challenges. We may have fun doing these "rediculous" challenges at some point but only when they do not dilute our own personal measure of "father/daughter" time. +1 to Thrak's comment

Geo-caching is something my daughter and I was introduced to and have Come to enjoy right after I purchased my WinMo TouchPro II phone but the current zoo like environment that has resulted due to the fact that my phone is not an Iphone has me question what the long term solution is that will keep my Interest up in this new sport we have found? I hoping for the best!

I wonder if the "unauthorized application" ever does become "authorized" if the moderators are going to go back through the posts and re-insert all the references that they removed?

mod edit: deleted mentions of prohibited software. I have to agree. I just got into geocaching about 3 months ago and just hit my 20th find and was working up to sending in my $30 for a premium membership. I too am NOT going to pay $30 to a company that basically says I can't use my WinMo phone.
