End of Year update
Last week's party with TMUG was a lot of fun. For those not there, the Palm segment was a big hit. Chris Owens showed off his Clié with the built-in video camera to great reviews. The AlphaSmart Dana (as well as the non-Palm 3000 keyboard) were also topics of much interest. Since the party, I know that Alan Hoyle has picked up a Tungsten T, which he says will be available for jealous ogling at the next meeting. If little elves bring you any new stuff, let me know, so we can start the anticipation! Meantime, have a happy holiday, and we'll see you next year!

Holiday Party with TMUG
The Triangle Macintosh User Group (of which I am president) has decided to postpone it's meeting due to ongoing effects of the ice storm. They will meet in Durham at the Eno River Unitarian Universalist Fellowship building on Monday, December 16th at 6 PM.
Does that time sound familiar? How does this effect TAPIT?
Well, they've invited us to participate in their party, so we're NOT going to be meeting at the usual location at that time. Just come on out, identify yourself at the entry desk and pick up your door prize ticket. The entry fee will be handled for you. Help yourself to the buffet, and the drawing procedure will be explained to everyone. I will be presenting a Palm update, and may get a few of you folks to sponsor some "showoff" stuff at a table during the free times. Directions can be found at the TMUG website. Please come on out and we'll make sure the evening is worthwhile. You may win a new mouse, a carrying case, or some software (some of which is PC-compatable.) The drawing system at this party lets you enter only those drawings that are of interest to you!
I will have a Dana, from AlphaSmart. This is a really cool device, although not as portable as most Palm OS units! It has an integrated keyboard, and a screen that's 5 times as wide as a regular Palm! It comes with it's own special version of WordSmith, and can be rotated 90º at a time. So you can carry it around like a clipboard and make checkmarks on your list. You'll have to see it. Very cool!!
