Um, if it *is* the Portable/IIci, Sept 27th won't be the first public
showing.

If the Seybold Publishing Seminar in SF is considered public (and it is
open to all and sundry), the machines were prominently displayed and
demoed today.

If they mean the first user group showing, they may just get scooped
on that too :-).

Of course, perhaps they mean the first public showing at John Hancock
Hall...
