Why not just use epinions? Not to throw any disrespect your way, Grant,
but it seems like a lot of work for a little benefit to completely
reinvent the epinions wheel when they've done the work for us.
Maybe we should each just go to http://www.epinions.com/cmhd-PDAs-All and
write a review of our favorite utility? Then TON or newted.org (or both
:) could point to the off-site site. :)
