Wow. That job sounds fun---I have lot of experience of content
transformation, since I encountered just about every free GIF, JPEG and HTML
parser written in Java while I was writing PackAndGo (see my Web site for
more information). Too bad I couldn't handle calculus (I was good in my CS
classes), so I am now a history major. Yes, that means I don't understand
the discrete cosine transform very well, so I'm not qualified for the job.
Plus, I am terrible at C++. Still, good luck finding someone. If I run into
any job-hungry CS people on campus who also love handheld computers I will
let them know about this.
