Just a small suggestion on my part but at some point you might like to consider implementing, or linking to, a nifty text-based chat channel which is found on Jason Dunn's http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com, http://www.pocketpcpda.com, my site and a few others.
The nice thing about it is that anyone clicking the chat link from any of the sites with the chat code in place is connected to the same channel, obviously meaning that with more than one site, there's more chance of people being there to talk to. It can also be connected to via IRC.
Another nice feature is that the chat window can be placed on a regular page which you can customise to your heart's content. It's pretty simple to implement and comes in two versions, ActiveX (for IE users) and Java. You can grab the relevant code off any participating site, such as my own:
http://www.pocketgamer.org/chat/index.shtml (ActiveX)
http://www.pocketgamer.org/chat/index2.shtml (Java)
Needless to say, this isn't a commercial venture, nor does it benefit any one site or individual. I'm an idealist - I would love to see a chat link on every Pocket PC site so that Pocket PC lovers, no matter where they are, can get connected! :-)
