Pointless v2.0 exists and is shipping.  If you sent in your registration card
you will be getting an update notice soon (they're still sending them out).

The BIG difference is that it computes the bitmap image only when a particular
character is used instead of all at once.  This is *much* faster then
converting the whole thing, and takes up less memory.

(NOTE: I'm not employed by WestCode, and I don't have Pointless v2.0; what I
know came from their section on GEnie.)
