Where’s James?
You might have noticed that James was absent from our little on-line community yesterday. Per his request, I wanted to share a little information on the reason why. I’m keeping it very general for now, mainly because I have limited information myself.On Sunday night James was not feeling well, so much so, that his wife took him to the hospital. I spoke with Sheri the next morning as she was kind enough to take a few minutes of her time to let me know of the situation. James is still in the hospital, but Sheri says he’s feeling much better. All I know at this point is that his white cell count was high, which indicates some type of infection that his body is fighting. He and Sheri are waiting on some additional test results, but again, he’s feeling better today based on the phone conversation I just had with Sheri.Sheri brought him his computer today, but I’m asking you personally not to shoot him any mail, simply so we don’t give him an Inbox full of stress. Instead, why not post your warm wishes and thoughts in the comments here. This will give him one place to scan through the messages from the friendly community here at jkOnTheRun. More to follow, I’m sure… get well, bud!
Reminds me of those commercials… What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas. Please, James, get well soon man. Although I don’t personally know you, I am almost positive you are demoing and evangelizing the ultra mobile PC to any doctor that will listen.
James
Get well soon, James!!!
We need you back in the saddle at JKOTR!
All the best,
Mark
James, mate, good to hear that you are already better! Please get well soon!
Sending thoughts and best wishes from your readers in the UK!
Hey take care mate.
We’ll all be here for when you are well enough to get back into the chair.
Oh all those opportunities to sing the praises of the UMPC / MID to the medical profession – resist the temptation and get well soon.
Warmest regards to Sheri too.
James, you really know how to steal Apple’s thunder! Seriously, get well and hurry back…

Hi James,
Get well soon.
I am really looking forward to your comments on MOTR and jkOTR.
I suppose we can add you to the list of sick bloggers…

James, I am sorry to hear that you have been so sick. You make the 4th person that I personally know who caught “something” in Vegas – Jason Dunn, Johan Von Mierlo, myself…although you certainly got whatever it was the worst. Get better soon my friend, we have Scrabulous games to play!
Get well soon my friend. You beat the odds once, so you tough this one out, too, okay. We’re about the same age, so things like this happen more often, but we can still whup it. Good luck!
James, I’m so sorry to hear about this. I’m thinking about you and sending get well vibes your way. Looking forward to seeing you back here soon.
You’re the best !!
We need you back in the saddle.
All the very best wishes.
You’re the best !!
We need you back in the saddle.
All the very best wishes.
All my best wishes. Have been a regular reader of JKOTR for longer than I care to remember. So I can recall your postings on the heart scare from a while back. When I first saw the headline, I thought, “Oh know!”. So firstly relieved for you it is not that, and secondly relieved that you are starting to feel better.
Fingers crossed!
You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers at my house. Your posts and podcasts are part of what makes my life so enjoyable and I thank you and Kevin for that enjoyment and the valuable information that you provide. Take care of yourself and know that we will be here online when the time is right for you.
More important than whatever that “other company” announces is hoping James has a speedy and quick recovery.
And one more thing …
We all miss you.
James,
Hang in there and rest and do whatever you need to do to get better. Return when you can. You’re missed. But get better.
James,
Hope you are able to relax, and are getting better. My wife had surgety and got an infection, and she just needed rest a time for her body (and some drugs) to fight the infection.
Hope you recover as quickly as she did.
Get well Buddy, we are already missing you!
That’s too bad. Here’s to a speedy recovery!
I caught the CES flu, just like so many other people and was feeling really bad all wknd. I’m just starting to feel better today…
Hope it’s nothing too serious. Get well soon James.
Prayers ans best wishes. Get well soon.
Hope you are not still depressed over Kevin’s slot machine windfall. Get well. We are praying for you.
Tim
God bless and get well.
God bless, James! Hope you feel better soon, but take care of yourself and your family first. We’ll be waiting for your mobile tech goodness when you are back on task.

Take care.

take the time to relax and recycle your batteries
Get well soon James. With all the excitement of CES, you deserve a rest, so take it easy bro!
From one of your readers over the pond in London England.
James,
I’m channeling nothing but good and happy thoughts your way. Get well soon.
Woadan
Get well soon, James. I’m also suffering from Vegas flu and it’s not pretty.
Get well soon James.
get well soon mate
Sorry to hear you’re not too well JK but I’m sure it’s just down to all of that ceaseless (or should that be CESless
)) Vegas coverage. Get well soon. We need ya!!!
Get better soon James!
James – Hope you start felling better soon! I get sick every time I go to Vegas too – something about all the conditioned air I think.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed for ya.
Best,
-Ed
Get well soon James. Take a little time to Rest, Relax and Rejuvinate!
OK, Kevin, it’s your responsibility to buy James a new “toy” to bring him back up to speed quickly!!
James-
Hope you are feeling better. I say relax and take some time off- Kevin is stepping up and the site is in very capable hands. I say turn a few of the devices off for a couple days, spend some time with family and get better!

James,
Dude! in a blogosphere of a million people your missed.
Where’s the tantalizing commentary and derisive wit.
Get well and be back soon… you have job to do
Regards
Adam
James!
I pulled an deadline-induced all-nighter, slept in to recover and then woke and logged on here to find my tech reality had gone all wobbly! You have got to relax, repair and reboot. We need ya…I need ya…that Louetta Starbucks really REALLY needs ya.
Be well, Daddy-o.

James, please get well quickly. (And I enjoyed seeing you in Vegas!)
Get back soon. Kevin lives entirely to close to Philly to trust
Take care of yourself, James – our community needs its ambassador. Get well soon!
Get well James….we need your insights back here at jkOnTheRun!
Hope you get better, James. As many have already noted, it does look like blogging does tend to take its toll. Take it easy.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
