First year on board!

yvanleterrible · 05-31-2007, 09:46 AM

This marks the official anniversary of my first post on MR.

Although I'd been lurking about for a couple of months.

In many ways it wasn't a quiet year. It was mainly marked by the official arrival of E-Ink to the commercial market, of course that is what brought me here in the first place

, and a big personnal 50th step through my life... But it was a memorable one. A slow one that I have savored with always a thought through my days for someone or a thread here, at Mobile Read. And a personnaly unusual impatient wait for the arrival of the desired eink devices.

I'd like to thank everybody for their tolerance towards my intrusion in their communications and especially those whose feathers I might have ruffled with my irreverence.

I have made good friends here and I thank them for being so. I hope too that new ones there will be...
Thanks!
Yvan

YAY! I can't believe it's been a year already. And yet it seems like you have always been with us! You are a central landmark and important part of our community, and I'm really delighted that you found us and decided to hang around. I know that's a common sentiment. Not to mention "the case", and all your materials expertise which is always fun to hear.

You're right.. those are some big big milestones with e-ink and the half-century mark! May you have many more. (Both e-book technologies and birthdays!)

It does seem like you've always been here, yvanleterrible, but then I wasn't here all that long before you joined up.

I'm looking forward to what this year brings, for all of us.

Thank you guys!

Bob! You recently went past your third mark!... You're a beacon to us...

Now from where I sit he has always been here -- as have Bob and NatCh.

Congratulations on one year.

So it's been only a year, but it seems to be like you've always been part of here

Congratulations!
