Looks like a great viewer, but the library function looks like it requires me to import everything I have, and then import new stuff as it comes along. That might be slightly faster long term, but short term looks like a major issue. Unless

The Streak 7 has the 4G built in, and so it would be cheaper to go with a stereo Bluetooth headset ($60 - $70) than the Samsung phone (just under $200). I don't want a contract given how things are going in this space, and so that's actuall

Good points. Integration is definitely something I'm starting to look into, but reducing friction is also important. I'll see if there's anymore contributions to the discussion, but at least that gives me a couple additional points to consi

It's worse than that. I started as a DBA, moved into development, spent time as an architect, and now am mainly a Project Manager though I do dip back into architecture occasionally. I do try to describe the types of projects I've run, and

That was exactly the sort of thing I was hoping to hear - not that there were problems with Heroku, but which systems held up for folks. Given your earlier message, I presume you used Linode and it held up ok?

Just in case anyone else runs into this - if they are running a promotion at the time (in this case a Veteran's Day sale), they give you the code to enter, but then the system automatically applies the discount - which somewhat begs the que

Tried to sign up for this, but it puts you directly into a two week trial for free, and I can't find any way to tell it that I have a promo code so that I can pay for the year. Any suggestion on what I might be doing wrong?

I'll have to look into the heroku then. I've had an amazon AWS account for some time (though I've mainly used it just to try things out myself before recommending to a client), and so don't appear to be able to use the one year option. Than

Would you happen to have links to any of these offers? A quick (albeit minimal) search doesn't reveal a "free for a year" option on any of these, instead EC2 and Heroku have pricing calculators that imply free only if hardly used. In all of

I "personally" would prefer that such discussions still be made available, but that people have an easier way to block those if they don't want to discuss that (or at least don't want to discuss that at HN).

Let's face it. A TRS-80 Model 100 in many ways is probably still the ideal portable writing machine. Only displays a couple lines at a time so you can't get too distracted with formatting and such. Rugged, full keyboard, 20+ hours of batter
