For those of you wondering about Frank M. Jr. aka. 999. I managed to get in touch with him yesterday. Here is his response. He gave me permission to post it, so that's exactly what I did.<br><br>------------------------------------------------<br><br>Hi Chris<br><br>Sorry about what's happened, but quite a bit has gone on in my life, and as<br>such, many things have had to take a back seat.<br><br>As you might know, I was engaged to be married this year, however things<br>went wrong and I subsequently broke things off and moved out of my<br>apartment. Living with someone for three years and then going back to your<br>folks house isn't as easy as it sounds. To say the least, this has been a<br>grim experience.<br><br>My comp's HD froze and I lost everything on it. I have only one mockup of<br>part of the site saved, and it was only so I could test some dimensions. You<br>can find it at this address: As<br>you can see, I was honestly working on the site, however after losing<br>everything on so many levels, I was just to weak to go on. I've been on my<br>Mac lately doing work for Prima, ThunderStrike for PS2, which I'm about to<br>finish in the next week or so. When it's done, I'm off to Europe for as long<br>as I can afford to stay. I'm hoping it will get me out of my slump, and help<br>me get over not being with Corinna anymore.<br><br>My iPAQ is for sale on Ebay as you know, which should serve as an example of<br>the huge personality shift I've had in losing Corinna. I kinda want to lay<br>low on all this gadget stuff. I spent more time and money on it than my<br>lady, and for what? I've still got it, don't use it, and now I've got no<br>lady. Call it a break, but I'm sure I'll be back later on, and in a much<br>more conservative manner, no instant messaging or messageboards anymore.<br><br>Take care, hope we cross paths again.<br><br>Feel free to post this email in the messageboard, just remove my email addy.<br>Thanks.<br><br>Frank M.<br><br>-Please Play my PS2/GameCube game in 2002 ^_^<br><br>------------------------------------------------

Poor 999. He was the last one to deserve that. I hope everything will become better for him.<br>Good luck, 999, I will use your template and try to do PM2. It wont be as good as yours would have been, but I accept your choice to take a break.<br>Greetings,<br>Eike

[Moose or Chuck]

see i told you it was something bad. Sorry 999, you were cool as hell. Hope you eventually come back.

[Moose or Chuck]

Damn, if only he was selling all that seperately I'd take a lot of his stuff.

[Chris Edwards]

yeah... if only... but still.. you'll probably be able to get the whole bundle for pretty cheap

[Jaybot]

I dont buy it.

[Diego Cueva]

I dont know how you guys can talk about money in a situation like this... <br>*I hope you come back some day 999*

[Diego Cueva]

Die new bug! Die!

[Matt Keys]

yeah, its sad about 999. Suddently he was another person, losing his girlfriend changed him alot. We all know how hardcore 999 was into his ipaq and the whole PocketPC community. If you would have brought up the idea of him selling that stuff just a few months ago he would have fell on the floor laughing.

[Matt Keys]

...indeed..

[CARPEDIEM]

This sucks man, 999 was a pretty good friend and we had lots of fun on ICQ. <br>I did know this was coming and that this was the reason he left us because when he left ICQ he told me about this and that he would eventually leave the pocketPC scene, it's pretty sad because we all lost a good friend, but i'm sure he's heading for better things and i agree with his desition 100%.<br>

[Paul]

i cant understand how people can just break up anyway. why would you be with someone if you didnt want to be with them so much that nothing could break you up? hmm... i'm obviously talking rubbish again.
