When I graduated from University, I went to buy a suit for job-interviews. As a poor but now ex-student, I gravitated to the swankiest, upper-class stores and tried on expensive suits that I had no hope of affording. I recommend every man at least once in his life tries on a top-end suit that he can't afford. Anyway, I had sales people dressing me in these wonderful suits (and boy, they did feel nice) but I had to ask finally for a "bog-standard" suit. After being given a look that made me feel distinctly unwelcome I was advised that this particular store did not stock "entry-level" suits. |

The Honeywell Optimus S is an entry-level, text-based PDA and scanner and Eze MobileScan really does run on it, although there are some features and functions not available in the basic edition. (You can compare the editions here). So why did we do this? Simple: the Optimus S sells well around the world to users who are price-sensitive and do get value of having a simple tool just do stocktakes and price-checks like Eze MobileScan. We think Eze MobileScan will do well - both on the Optimus S and the Pro Edition on Windows CE/Mobile for those who need something nicer to use and slightly more feature-rich. |

Yesterday we decided to rebuild a server named Maudslay, which is responsible for automatically building our products every night. It had recently developed a somewhat pronounced limp, due to a couple of bad blocks. on the hard disks. Fortunately, nothing was lost, though we started to notice some strange and scary behaviour.
