Hi all,

There are only a few more days left to fill out this short survey.
There will be a drawing for an IPAQ. This same survey will be
issued twice a year until (at least) the end of HP support. The
next survey should come out before HP World.

This data, especially trend data, will aide us in decision making
between now and the end of HP support.

Thanks,
 Jeff Vance, vCSY

Dear <name>,

As part of our advocacy role between User Group Members and HP,
Interex is currently sponsoring a study to understand your needs
related to your HP e3000 systems. The results of this study will be
passed on to HP so they can better serve you.  All survey participants
will be entered into a drawing for an IPAQ Pocket PC h1910.  The prize
winner will be notified by email.

To participate, reply to this survey, and place an x in the box that
best applies to your organization.
