wmv ? ;)

[James Kendrick]

WMV is up now.

[jkkmobile]

tanks!

I'm happy to see a positive reaction to VueFLO. I've seen it written off as a gimmick elsewhere, but it seems useless in certain situations.

[Jenn]

Whoops. I meant useful, not useless. I hope that wasn't a Freudian slip!

[Mike Cane]

Is this the Mystery Device mentioned earlier?

[Tunde Odutoye]

Could you kindly tell us how your inking experience is on the HTC advantage, and can ink written notes or articles be transferred easily to a PC in a common format. Also perhaps demonstrate it in some future video ?

Thanks, and great video by the way.
