The Omni Group hints at new product
The Omni Group has begun hinting at a new product on their blog by offering clues on their blog as to what it is not.

I like to think of Omni as the Bungie of office applications. Cool company, funny blog, great products.
Here's a crazy idea. Apple buys Omni and gives them tons of money to turn Apple Works into OmniWorks. I can't even begin to imagine how awesome an Omni Group designed office suite would be. I know, never happen, but I can dream.

Great idea Geoff, Omni is a good company to work with (support), great products. I just wish I used them (graffle and outliner) more.

My guess for the new product is a Project Management Application. I doubt this is it, but would be nice.

Apple almost admits as much already - they bundle OmniGraffle and OmniOutliner with some if not all Macs. If Omni made a word processor and spreadsheet maybe Apple would bundle those too, and then hey presto, its an Omni office suite!
