Thanks for the nice intro Stu!
Sounds like you'll fit right in very well here.

Many of us are big ebook fans, and not real thrilled with the way DRM works, especially the trend towards controlling where, how and how often it can be read.
I'd love to get something like a Zaurus myself. But there may be a nice Nokia (770) or something else like even a PalmOS for Linux or something that I jump on first. We're a long way down the mobility road already, but still it seems like it's just the infancy in a way. Some pretty awesome devices are sure to be coming. I just wish Sharp would still rollout new devices and sell them in the US.

I'm not a big fan of sci-fi myself, but many are, and Cory Docrow's books sound like they are really popular.

Glad to have you with us!
