Hey all!
Sounds like some pretty cool meeting this month!

On the agenda, we have a couple of demos/show-n-tells:

	C64 Datasette Emulator via Propeller Microcontroller + SD RAM
	By Fredrik
Fredrik is going to show and demonstrate his C64 Datasette Emulator built 
around a Propeller microcontroller built into a C=64 Datasette (tape 
recorder) that reads .TAP or .PRG files from an SD card and loads them into 
the C=64 (if someone else bring the C64.. ;).

	Google-Android (Linux) based phone technology overview
	By: Charles Strang
Charles will be demonstrating and discussing his HTC Dream Google 
Android/Linux powered phone.  This F/OSS phone-OS is the hot new platform on 
which many of the new Linux phones are building on.
