For Windows 8 users: I will be experimenting tomorrow with a version of the wallet that should work on Windows 8. Please stay tuned!

So, is this basically just another marketers coin? just to hype instead of innovate?

I didn't spend the last month and a half "marketing", I spent it at my computer writing code to get this project working. Whether it's hype or not is for you all to judge, now that it is released to the public.

So essentially what you have is a web wallet wrapped using node-webkit, whereas other coins have actually created a standalone product that works with their coin only.. Why not open source it since it works with any coin?

It's an RPC front-end packaged with an RPC-only daemon, with clean separation between the front-end and daemon. No, it's not a "web wallet", none of your data is stored on our servers. No it can't be used for just any coin, as there are some I/O-specific functions included. Regardless, the code is closed source and the copyright is held by the I/O Coin Team to protect the investment that the community has made in I/O Coin, and we will not allow distribution of our code by any other alt-coins.

At the end of the day, we just wanted to bring a new, beautiful, feature-rich wallet to the users of I/O Coin. I respect that Shadowcoin wants to do the same thing and have also made a very impressive wallet. I personally think this Qt/not-Qt pissing contest is shameful and hope that we can respect each other going forward.

very well stated. Nice to have some reasoning and intelligence.
