noise for you, useful information for others. it always amazes me to see "seniority" on webforums - i mean, you complain that this device will forever languish as a geek tool, and then you intimidate newcomers......................................... ................. just because you got this toy before i did and joined this forum before i did, doesn't mean you need to be nasty or a "jerk." (not that i'm directing this at you, rather i'm speaking to the more general mood of this place). linux based software demands community interactions - simple as that. If you want a real community, you've got to take the new with the old, the newbs with the seniors.
