    Oh I am swooning at the possibilities! While I (still) am recovering from the bad economy, I can only dream about owning such a wonderful tool. I would download a scheduler/organizer (like a work-flow type of app - is there such a creature out there?) AND I would use this as my portable portfolio, showing my photography while out and about on location, and in client conferences while placing their orders. Yes, I'll sneak in a couple of games, too, I am sure : )- THANK YOU to all who are making this give-a-way possible! Peggy at DogBreedz.net - pet photography and gifts in celebration of YOUR pet!
