members of a local Linux User Group liked my device

[Laura Knotek]

I went to a meeting of the Akron Linux User Group tonight. There were several people who had Androids, one iPhone/iPad user, and one BES BlackBerry user. When I set my device on the table, everyone recognized it, due to its distinct cyan color.

The folks at the meeting wanted to see and play with my device. They loved the display, the Live Tiles, and the interface. The Android and iPhone users were impressed. The BlackBerry user wanted to see Netflix and Angry Birds.

Linux users tend to dislike all things Microsoft; however, all of the folks at the meeting were impressed with my device, and none of them disliked it.

That's what we need, more people to actually see it. Anyone can read the specs on paper and think it's non-competitive. But when people actually USE it I've seen people fall in love totally. I started standing mine up on the desk just because I can, and people notice it easier.
