  2. Picturing an e-type shopping list on some groovy little Crackberry, here, rather than scrawlings on the back of an envelope.

    I guess you're allowed... as long as you've read all the Miles Franklins! (Well, at least The Slap... goddit for xmas from my Bro. Still savouring it.)

  3. Oh noes. No crackberries here. I was thinking shopping for family SF readers actually.
    Certainly have read Teh Slap, all my stats lead to my review. It is taking some of the fun out of stats, unfortunately ( in the nicest possible way.)
