Ive never tried these before but would LOVE to hear how you get on :)
I bought a zaurus a few days after the last meet, its pretty awesome
actually, I'm quite pleased. although its been on the back burner
recently as I've been interesting myself with other new things.

I'm definately very interested in the idea, and even investigated this a
little while back, although I think I got rid of all the documentation I
had from it.

This sounds absolutely bloody tastic :) I'll be off the beer this time
though, for my diet as well as to save further embarassment :D

I can possibly find out about this for you. I'll post it here if I find
out, PS. wouldn't mind a few of the captures.

Its a bloody fantastic movie. lot more action with a less obvious
storyline. but still very good. the nmap part is quick and obviously
outdated, but still add the best element of "geekiness" I've seen in a
"hacking" movie :)

Hope to hear from you all soon, would love to get a TT bash together.
How does a week on saturday sound? (7th June)
