3. Place Ankh (are wou living in Ankh Morpork or on the Ankh?), for being with me about sony.

I think PocketBook wins so far.

Would be nice to see PocketBook, OpenInkpot and ..? (maybe jinke) putting their resorces together in software efforts

@SmokeandMirrors:
Perhaps those poeple, who don't understand me/you/us need a better metaphor.
Something like this: There was a vegetarian, who was one because he didn't want other beings killed, just to be food to him. But eats every day at the Steakhouse, because it was much closer to his home, than the greengrocer.

Thanks to everyone.
No problem. And I think your metaphor is a very good one. I just find it so frustrating that people who complain about the same problems that we are will then turn around and give their money to companies who perpetuate it and say we're being ridiculous for trying to actually DO something about it.

I've been looking intently at the Pocketbook series as well.
