[ILUG-Social] booking movies

[Brendan Kehoe]

How prevalent is the ability to get movie tickets in Ireland beyond 
going in and picking 'em up?

A friend of mine sent the thing below to me, but I'm still waiting for 
the day that there's a wireless Linux approach that's easy...

I wonder if the systems that make WAP functional are themselves running 
Linux?
