There is one spreadsheet out at the moment and a few are on the way. Wingz is available now and Ashton Tate should bring one out within a month. Others, including one from Lotus, should come out by the end of the summer.

There is no fixed or estimated ship date for the product."

As far as I know WingZ is not yet out. However what I have seen of the product is also more than vapor ware. The product seems to be in a quite advanced state od development (late alpha or beta). Does anyone know what the other spreadsheet announced in the fall 1989 3rd party product catalog is like (I think the name was something like Tactician)? It should be shipping if the info there is cortrect...
