I don't think it's quite THAT loaded of a question. Some members will 
prefer a dedicated list with low traffic, and some will want to open the 
list up to more topics and the accompanying traffic.
This list is pretty much dead right now. I'm fine letting it be what it 
is, but with tens of thousands of members, I felt it was worth asking 
the question.
Just like the last election, if you don't vote, you can't complain about 
the outcome. :P

Not within the group, no. An entirely new group would need to be 
created. I could then send an invitation to all members of this group. I 
thought about that, but then, why reinvent the wheel? We already have a 
large group of people, and although I still use Handyshopper on my Wrist 
PDA (and my old Treo as the "master list" device), my "daily driver" is 
an Android. I wouldn't mind some discussion on what the best options for 
HandyShopper-like tools there are out there.

And it will always have that, regardless of the results of this poll.

No no... "shiny new toy" Or as my favorite artist penned in a recent 
song, "Tiny, little black and shiny..." hehe

So yeah... take the poll, people.
