in Cool Stuff: How did R2-D2 Get His Name? on /Film
not that it matters, but slightly interesting is the fact that the "andr" part of android does specifically mean male - from the greek "andros"

in GoBinder 2006 Beta… Review Cancelled on Note Talkers
I have been really trying to get Franklin Covey PlanPlus 5.0 for Windows XP to work with my new IBM X41 Tablet.

It is a very cool program with excellent features that I would love to be able to use. I love the way you can use digital ink inside it, and I would really like to get myself onto the Franklin Covey system using this.

But the program is a huge memory hog and very unstable. I am frequently getting unhandled exceptions that crash the program. And there are "known bugs" such as the program going into an endless loop if you write more than a screenful of notes and then try to print them! While writing with digital ink, it sometimes it gets very slow and lags way behind my writing.

Everyone in the office always wants to get a look at my tablet and this app that I am talking about, and it is embarrassing to show them this thing that is so flakey and slow!

Like I said, I desperately want this thing to work because it seems like it would be a great tool. I am also looking at this to recommend to the team I support, but I can't see handing this flaky app over to the business users.

And for some reason, there are still almost no reviews of FC PlanPlus 5.0 for XP anywhere online. Just news items announcing it. What is going on? Worst still, it looks like the FC apps before this one were all flakey. Can't FC and Agilix get their acts together???
