The missus and I usually spend about 3/2 of the year OS doing various missions for the UN, EU, IMF, World Development Bank... whoever will pay the bill.

I'm going to choose to see you and your missus as suave superspies (the good "James Bond" type) from now on. Sorry, it's too late, you can't change it, it's my imagination, and I only give people read-only access.

E-book readers so rule, I've had mine for 3 months now and it paid for it's self on it's first mission (Rwanda), because I did not have to pay for 25kg of excess baggage for technical manuals, {you try putting up a J-band SAT station with out a set of manuals}!

Okay, I will, but I'm going to need a bigger wrench...

...okay, I admit it, I have no idea what a "J-band SAT station" is...but I really like wrenches...and socket sets...and hammers, I
love hammers. Can I use a hammer?

No, thanks. I bought an Iliad from those morons at Dymocks.
Welcome aboard the MobileRead Ride, Tim. Please, watch your head, do not try to de-ride while we are still in motion, keep your hands inside the car at all times, and hold on tight - the first dip's a doozy, and they get worse/better after that.
Cheers,
Marc
