I've been running iSync with a Treo 600 and now a Treo 650, which are both PalmOS creatures and use the Palm Conduit with iSync. Works pretty much as advertised. The only disconnect is with events that span multiple days on iCal. They only turn up as a no-time event on the first day in the Palm.

Thanks, ND! Just the kind of thing I was hoping to hear.

I need some networking help. Currently, the broadband connection in our house is in another bedroom, with the cable modem going to a wireless B router so my laptop and Tivo can get a signal, while wired connections run off the back of the router to another Tivo and to a desktop.

Once my shiny new Dell Dimension XPS arrives in about two weeks, I want to move the cable modem and router to this side of the house so I can plug directly into broadband and utilize the connection's full speed.

I could always get two more wireless USB adapters like the one currently attached to the first Tivo and hook the second Tivo and other desktop into the network that way. However, if I wanted to use the existing wired connections, am I right in concluding that I would need a wireless bridge and then a switch? (Or a combo bridge/switch, of course. It looks like two adapters might generally be cheaper, though.)

I'm still looking through my piles of technology. I've got my old Treo 600 here, anyone interested in buying it? I'm thinking $225 for it. It's a GSM model.

So, I've got a livejournal question. I'm logged in, but it only lets me see the unlocked friends posts. I don't think *everyone* has unfriended me since earlier this morning. Is anyone else having this problem? Or do you know why it might be happening?

On edit: I've tried logging out and logging back in, closing and opening a new browser and rebooting the computer.

VW, do you have an alternate brower? Netscape/Firefox/etc? Might be worth it to find out if it is your account or your computer.

Also you might want to clear the disk cache in the Internet control panel.

If I can think of more, I'll let you know.

VW, LiveJournal has a note on their help page that may explain some of the wonkyness. It's not exactly the issue you have, but it may be related.

Free users on the FiletMignon cluster (Where am I?) may find that their journals are temporarily in read-only mode, due to maintenance being performed on the cluster. Please see lj_maintenance for more information.

I doubt that's it, because vw is a paid user.

Other than that, I have no idea. It's working fine for me.

Ok. It appears to be working again. I cleared stuff and rebooted again. We'll see if it sticks.

Thanks!

This is awesome:

Beam your craigslist ad into space

WHAT: craigslist CEO Jim Buckmaster won an eBay auction for the first private communication transmission light years into deep space, with the idea of offering this opportunity to craigslist users.

HOW: The friendly folks at Deep Space Communications Network (DSCN) will beam the postings trillions of miles into space using redundant klystron transmitters and a satellite dish.
