I may be dense (sometimes light has been known to bend around me), but
how would I get anything I produced on such a setup out of the netBook
and onto my PC or some other permanent storage facility accessible from
other systems?  Do we have support for the serial port already?  IrDA?

I believe that both serial and IrDA code exists (although I have not
checked), but that it has not been properly tested=2E Klassjan asked me to=

check some of the serial connections to check everything is ok=2E
