I guess I've got to ask why further discussion does not belong on this
group. Seems to me we've got some pretty smart folks on this list, and
the topic is fairly important.
I guess those who want to talk about it could start a new group,
but that would take the discussion away from those who are interested
enough to listen in, but not desirous of chiming in.
I've noticed over the past several weeks a few subjects that were
not exactly about Treos -- whether text messaging contributes to
illiteracy, whether cell companies should have early termination
penalties, whether certain camera operating manuals are way too long.
The group has been polite and respectful, and some differing views
have aired. And questions still have been asked and answered about SD
cards and 700p updates and myriad other on-topic interests.
I agree if the topic became strictly politics, and nary a Treo were
mentioned, it might be time to switch groups to discuss Treos.
But as long as the conversations seem to be reasonably capable of
self-control, I let let 'er run.
