(12-20-07) Mine's here! I just returned from out of town and got busy with our little computer! - JKrauss
(12-20-07) Hey, JKrauss, I am still figuring out how to talk to you with THIS system, but it is showing up on the screen, so I must be on the right track. I even introduced myself. So you opened the box. Did it come with real instructions? - Weirdwilbur
12-22-07 I tried to sign up for the T-Mobile service and their page told me that "an error has occured, try again later". Now, that's funny. - Weirdwilbur
12-22-07.1 The T-Mobile offer does not allow roaming. So I get to drive to Starbucks if I want to access the net. That's not handy, but I may want to download something in the next year. Oh dear. My Ann just came to demand that I open the box because we're not christians and don't have to wait for Christmas. Here goes!
12-22-07.2 I'm moving to the 'Discussion' tab to post my comments.
12-27-07 Let's get together January 3,4,5, or 6! If we all have the tmobile configured we can make use of it at a Starbucks or Borders store. What works best for everyone? (reply in discussion).
01-02-08 Meeting on Friday (see below for details, and add to the agenda).
EVENTS
We have a meetup! So far Jane, Mark, Mary and Wilbur plan to meet on January 4 at 6:30 at the Starbucks at Broadway and Pearl downtown Eugene. Join us! Bring your little green machine!
