Last Tuesday, the Pittsburgh Newton User's Group had it's first meeting.
Seven were in attendance: Ashley Campbell, Tao, Gopi Flaherty, Rob, Joshua
Brock, Robert Basilio & myself.
We met for two hours at the Starbucks in Shadyside... and we definitely need
to find a bigger place next time. Seven people with multiple Newtons,
wireless cards and several laptops was a bit much for the cramped coffee
house tables. The newer users were able to get some help with things like
wireless connections and SimpleMail while Gopi and Ashley discussed the
technical prospects of putting a 2100 motherboard into an eMate or getting
the NewtonOS to run on those cheap new Dell handhelds. There was even talk
of roadtripping it up to Tornoto for their next NUG meeting.
All in all, it was a great success and we've decided to make it a regular
happening. We've also set up a PittNUG email list to facilitate
communication. (To join, send an email to pittnug-request_at_freelists.org with
'subscribe' in the subject.)
