Hmm.  I write 8 page fanzines on the G1, actually. Go fig.

Like the scrollwheel on the G1?

(which doesn't mean there aren't deep issues on the G1 -- the biggie
being "bugs in the textbox inteface that sometimes delete text + no

FWIW, my usual method of writing posts on LJ from my sidekick days --
e.g. mail them in -- should also work nicely on DW.  Not saying that a
client isn't useful, of course.
