I should be free on the 23rd (I'll have to check if I have any family obligations).

Hi all in the DC area! Just saw this and would love to participate if I can!

I realize I am late, but if it still matters, I would prefer a weekday or even Sunday meetup, and given that I am in DC itself, somewhere in the District or close to it would be ideal. The weekday is the more important thing though.

A weekday would be a hard thing to pull off for those of us who do not work in DC. Even if we could get off work early enough, it's almost impossible to navigate the beltway or metro stations when you're going against the commute crowd.

That's what I was thinking.

DC during a weekday would be fine for me but that's because I go to graduate school and work in the area. But it wouldn't work for anyone else.

I could do a Sunday though.

23rd works for a lot of people, the commute nightmare for those of us spread out would be too much. I agree with Whitlows, Four Seasons is more of darkened pub, RiRa is another place thats good too, but lets rock with Whitlows.

Okay, so have we got a consensus then? The 23rd at Whitlows?

What about mid-afternoon (2 to 3 ish) to meet? Anyone got a street address for Whitlows?

It's a short walk from Clarendon on the Orange Line.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the Clarendon area:

I'd really be up for this. I've had an N800 for about 2 years now and have only found 2 people with N-series tablets.

I'd be interested in meeting some people from the community and live in the DC area.

I'm not sure if this was mentioned already, but this place isn't a pub, right? I'm a couple years shy of 21, so it would be a problem getting in.
