    Hi Don,
    
    my feedback to your flyer draft:
    - I my honest opinion is that too many different fonts and font faces 
    are used. I propose to reduce the number of used fonts. My favor is to 
    use only one font - the one which is used in the title with different 
    font faces.
    - My impression is that the used cliparts are to fancy/freaky which 
    makes the flyer to look too less professional. I propose to choose 
    cliparts which do not use soo much different colors and which have no 
    special backgrounds. Unfortunately, I have no alternatives at hand.
    - Please replace "OpenOffice" by "OpenOffice.org".
    - Please mention also product "Oracle Open Office" - another 
    implementation based on OpenOffice.org
    - Do we really have 8 independent implementations?
    I am counting 7
    1. KOffice
    2. lpod
    3. ODF Toolkit
    4. OpenOffice.org, IBM Lotus Symphony, Novell Go-OO, Oracle Open Office
    5. Maemo
    6. Freoffice
    7. OFS
    
    
    Best regards, Oliver.

    Perhaps  http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page can be helpful
    
    (of course, do check the license)
    
    And no doubt Nokia's marketing department will have some very nice
    pictures of the N900 (probably IBM can use Lenovo's  ?)
    
    If not, does someone has CorelDraw ? They used to include a truckload
    of free clipart (also sold separately) that can be used for commercial
    purposes as well. No sure if this is still the case.
    
    
    Just my 2 cents,
