That is not a bad idea. Someone who knows how, could put the hotels menu, like you did, on the e-mail. This way we can copy it to our Bn. You never know if being served in your room is moor or less that an expensive dinner, until you can compair.

One thing I like to do is research out a location before travelling on the internet before a trip, and copy useful information such as; possible restaurants, things to do, attractions, entertainment possibilities, etc.. If there's a restaurant we want to try out while there, and I can find that restaurant's menu on the internet, then I copy that also to my BN. Our last trip to Florida, I called the hotel we were staying at ahead of time, and had them fax me a copy of their room service menu which I scanned and copied over to my BN which really came in handy I also before heading to the airport make sure I have lots of great books to read during those long boring airplane flights.

In fact, My wife calls it our grand child, because it chatters all the time. If you want to do something fun, when you are using the GPS in a car, have it announce the speed. I did this while on project Mobility, here in Dayton, Ohio. The driver and I got a big charge out of it.
