From TWUUG

August 2009

• This meeting was mostly an open forum for a variety of small topics.
• Discussed TWUUG's possible involvement in the Virginia Beach Hamfest on Saturday, September 12 at Virginia Wesleyan College. It has been years since our last involvement in a local show, and so it looks like it is going to happen.
• Mark Davis gave an update on the Linux Palm Pre, smartphone development.
• The books missing from the last meeeting arrived from O'Reilly. It was decided to give away three at each meeting for door prizes, starting with this meeting, for three meetings.

The meeting was NOT audio recorded. Lots of discs were available.

Attendance: 22 members +1 new +1 returning +2 visitors = 26 attendees, minimum.
