Now that the medical detour is behind me (other than the bills) :eek: and because as of this week my plate at work has been lightened I can jump back in to PostMormon.org and help us move things forward again.
For the last two years I've been suffering labor pains and finally this week the baby was born! It's a new product we announced this week and it even made the front page of Pen Computing Magazine's online magazine! It's the orange and metallic pocket PC you'll see if you scroll down the page a little. It started out as many, many sketches and clay models two years ago and is finally in a physical form we can show the public. We start shipping the product in December.(BTW, I designed the enclosure not the electronics and software) Here's the link:

Here's another link with a splash photo that turned out pretty cool looking:

I know one likes looking at baby pictures, but for what it's worth, that's my baby. Two years of labor pains are finally over! :D

This is *sniff* just beautiful...
But I missed it...boy or girl? I can't tell.
By the way, when you were announcing a "birth", I was suddenly concerned that your surgery produced a little more than you bargained for, and was SO glad to hear it's just your hand-held computer! Whew!

It is clearly a girl! And a very pretty girl I must say! But then I have always had a thing for red heads. ;)

Awww...thanks! Glad you like my baby. I wish we had more shots of her on our website. Like when she cut her first tooth, said her first words. My friend Omar is working on getting more shots of her on the website. Omar's the most talented graphics designer I've ever worked with. He was hired recently to upgrade the company website and is redesigning all our advertizing material. After he was with the company for a few weeks I found out that he grew up in a Mormon family in Argentina, went on a mission, was married in the temple, yada, yada. Then he wised up a few years ago and is now Post-Mormon. When he gets a few things off his plate he wants to help with a facelife of our PostMormon.org website. So much to do, so little time.
