Yess…it arrived today. As I carefully tore through the packaging, the box emerged amid a pool of Styrofoam peanuts and cotton balls (leave it up to the Japanese to devise weird packaging ideas…)The Hario Skerton.
A 1lb amalgamation of glass, plastic, steel, and most important of all, a ceramic mill that grinds the beans to the perfect consistency. I had been on the market for a grinder for quite some time now, and wasn’t really sure which kind to get. 
I’ve been all over reviews from CoffeeGeek.com, coffeegrindersreviews.com, etc. and have pretty much narrowed it down to a conical ceramic burr, but I didn’t want to pay 200+ for an electric coffee grinder. Luckily, the Japanese have perfected a hand-cranked conical burr with ceramic parts and just about every coffee blog and reviewer has been raving about it. Time to see what all the fuss is about…
