No, I hadn't, but once you mentioned it, I tried the other stick I'd
picked up, and was delighted to find that it mounted perfectly. Flush w/
success, I then put the original stick back in the Clié and tried
mounting it - it worked fine, and iPhoto immediately booted up, as I'd
stored some .jpgs on it. Played around with iTunes, and successfully
loaded William Shatner's rendition of "Rocket Man" onto my shiny new toy,
to my mingled delight and horror.

Not sure why it didn't work before, but it's working flawlessly now - if
this keeps up, I'll soon not regret spending $190 to replace an old
PalmPilot that still did everything I needed a PDA to do. ;)

If Operating Systems Ran Airlines

UNIX Airways 
Everyone brings one piece of the plane along when they come to the
airport. They all go out on the runway and put the plane together piece
by piece, arguing non-stop about what kind of plane they are supposed to
be building. 

Air DOS 
Everybody pushes the airplane until it glides, then they jump on and let
the plane coast until it hits the ground again. Then they push again,
jump on again, and so on ... 

Mac Airlines 
All the stewards, captains, baggage handlers, and ticket agents look neat
and act exactly the same. Every time you ask questions about details, you
are gently but firmly told that you don't need to know, that you really
don't want to know, and that everything will be done for you without your
ever having to know, so just shut up. 

Windows Air 
The terminal is pretty and colorful, with friendly stewards, easy baggage
check and boarding, and a smooth take-off. After about 10 minutes in the
air, the plane explodes with no warning whatsoever. 

Windows NT Air 
Just like Windows Air, but costs more, uses much bigger planes, and takes
out all the other aircraft within a 40-mile radius when it explodes. 

Linux Air 
Disgruntled employees of all the other OS airlines decide to start their
own airline. They build the planes, ticket counters, and pave the runways
themselves. They charge a small fee to cover the cost of printing the
ticket, but you can also download and print the ticket yourself. When you
board the plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of
the seat-HOWTO.html. You take the seat to a location of your choice and
bolt it into the deck, per the instructions. Once settled, the fully
adjustable seat is very comfortable, the plane leaves and arrives on time
without a single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful. You try to
tell customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they
can say is, "Jesus, you had to do what with the seat? ... "
