Some of you might have wondered about the update that I announced in a couple of posts earlier. All sort of speculations like marriage, new job, stealthy startup, etc., were around. Let me put an end to those through this post.

I am moving to the United States permanently. I have been offered a permanent transfer to Sun Microsystems, Menlo Park. I will continue working for my wonderful Sun Streaming System project, but in a different team. I came to Chennai last week for my L-1B visa stamping. The visa is issued and I am ready to fly now. I am leaving on Jul 23. I will be staying in a company leased accommodation for a month after which I would be finding a home for me in the most expensive Bay Area. I would also buy a car (probably new). Suggestions on housing and car are most welcome!
