Don't forget to stop by stores and grab half price Valentine's Day candy!

In unrelated news, the local oldies station played "Heart of Rock and Roll" by Huey Lewis this morning, making me feel old. But my EEE should be showing up today, and the thumb-trackball I ordered to go along with it (I don't like touchpads) came after I left the office yesterday, so I'm all set on that end. Woot.

Someone in my building has an unsecured wireless connection. :) Posting this from my EEE in my kitchen. Still getting used to the small keyboard, and I don't like the "tap to click" touchpad, so I'm getting used to the thumb trackball I got. I think my main keyboard problems are the spacebar (shallow enough I don't always hit it) and backspace (I overshoot it and hit delete).

Just to see if it'd do anything, I loaded a .prc of a Baen e-book (Mobibook format) onto a thumbdrive, plugged it in, and tried opening it. And it worked. The EEE's book reader just grabbed it and opened it with no fuss. It won't keep my place while it's on the jumpdrive, though, and I can't seem to get it to add to the library. Still, it's a start. And I will note that the reader will rotate the screen so you can hold it like a regular book.

Edit: Weird, copying files just uses "select icon, hit copy, move to desired directory, hit paste". And aha, adding the book to the library ran into a snag because the window ran off the bottom of the screen and the "okay" button was invisible.
