FYI: WMT IN NYC

4500004448_8067859148

So, we're lucky enough to be stateside at the moment, for a week of shenanigans and suchlike in New York. So far, the Big Apple is living up to expectations - we've already spotted a guy reading the NY Times on his iPad on the subway, sitting next to a girl with a chihuahua in her handbag, who was in turn next to a guy reading manga comics on his Kindle.

We're not going to be posting a whole heap while we're here, but we'll be sure to fill you in on our return. In the meantime, Alistair's gonna be posting bits and bobs on his Twitter feed, so check in over there if you're wildly bored.
