Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

More Mac rumors:

Apple is planning to release its first entry-level iBook laptops with Intel processors next January at Macworld Expo in San Francisco, highly reliable sources have confirmed to Think Secret.

It is not known exactly what processors or price points the new models will debut at, but it is thought Apple will expand the iBook line with one additional model and will lower prices—in some cases possibly $200 or more—to entice current Windows users and prove to the market it will be more competitive with the likes of Dell, Gateway, HP and Sony.

Hey. New board.

Okay. Treo software I can't live without. Go.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Hey. New board.

An ssh client with a warning "pssh is probably INSECURE!" is funny.

Thanks, Tom. Both of those seem interesting.

So far, I'm hating the built in Palm contact list. It's just not flexible enough (I want to be able to display emails on the main contact page for people whose phone number i don't have, for example, and can't see a way to do it.) Is there a replacement out there?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mine displays that, Gris. I'm not sure how, but it always has. I think you can define the field as primary, or switch the first field to e-mail and put it there.

Hey. New board.

Huh. Hmm. Okay, I'll keep playing.

For $9.95 I can get something called Address XT that looks nice, so I'll give that a try too.

ETA: Annoyingly, the iSync conduit doesn't send some information I'd really like it to send (like AIM names), and I don't have Tiger so I can't use the better Missing Sync tools. Bah. (Just noticed that).

ETAA: Oh, Address XT also lets me sort First name, last name. That's a must feature for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have Agendus on my Clie. It's not free, but I like it a lot.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That looks interesting, Jessica.

Way back when, with the first Clie, Intellisync synched my PDA with my desktop and with my Yahoo contacts. Is that, or an analog still possible, anyone know?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Why would I be getting a timeout error when trying to visit salon.com from home? This has been going on for a couple of days now. My service is through RCN. Should I just call them to complain?
