Plug-in: john would you be publishing/talking about the path selection algo you designed at some point? I'm very interested as that's exactly my focus and, at your scale, data is really going to look interesting.

I'd also love such a thing: a plain and simple handheld thingy with two buttons "call", "answer" and that's it. No worrying about updates, contact lists, launching apps, etc. Maybe a tablet with Android and som

The UK web-based procedure for self-employed tax return is very easy to use. I did it for years with no need for an accountant, despite my business was complicated by special circumstances (non-UK customers, tax-exempt research funds, etc).
