____[*] Nitpicking time: While it is true that the cartographer Waldseemueller used the name first, he only applied it to the region around Brazil. Furthermore, he stopped using the name in later editions. But Gerardus Mercator pulled a timewarped burn on "Rocketman" in 1538. So there.
You beat me to it

Karel, funny - immature, mean-spirited, nerd hiding behind his keyboard - but definitely funny.

I have a very small keyboard and very little room behind it. Call me if and when you're in Belgium; we'll do beer.

Now, ask a question. I dare you...

I especially liked the "and/or". If you think about it, that's a compliment...

Well, it is for a hounddog.

Can you give a URL for one that works with batteries?

(getting back to the actual discussion)

Cradlepoint does have a battery powered version now. See the last post in this thread:
