One of the smartest things I did as Interim VP of Engineering for Padcom was let Don talk himself into coming to play with us over the course of several hours overlooking the Puget Sound one weekend morning. Padcom was a small tech company with some unique internetworking technology in the process of building-out into the bigger-time. The unique IP was in software but one of the challenges was shipping a next generation ruggedized client as a delivery vehicle to access markets in public safety.
