Well, that's actually pretty useful! I've decided that I can't afford the big vacations, but I still need to get away, so I've started taking "working vacations" in a ski resort near my home. The WiFi there is rock solid and free, but the session timeout is 20 minutes. So, it means going through one of those pages every time I want to check my email!
Based on the feedback I've heard, though, maybe I'll wait until the next rev :) -Dave P.S.
