P-C - are you on a PC? If so, why don't you bring in an external hard drive/thumb drive and run firefox off that? The Portable apps firefox is the bomb (at least when I was on PCs).
Also, I can kill you with my brain.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
It can do them just fine. In fact, it can make things that would be impossible to "assemble", like two interlocking rings.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hmm. Looking at new phones. Android phones only, so far. My integration concerns are Mac-based. Looks like my Bluephone Elite investment will be for no good anymore. They only have limited compatibility.
Googling implies that to use iSync I should be going through gmail to do it. Really? Back in the day I actually used to synchronise through yahoo address book, but I don't use gmail as a primary email or calendaring services. Is it the only way? What about a to-do list? I read someone saying they'd likeone on Android. I can't imagine it doesn't have one. Is it just not tightly integrated?

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

Heh.
In your marriage ceremony you could have one of those 3-D printers print interlocking rings....

Waittaminute. Help for my OS X application says I should be able to synchronise with gmail, but I don't see the option where they say it should be, under Preferences/General. I just get Yahoo and Exchange and MobileMe.
Anyone know what that's about? I'm on Leopard.
eta: I see that it's only enabled for iTouch/iPhone users, which is not nice of Apple. And the hack I found (editing the ipod plist file) doesn't work for me.

Oooh, that looks kinda cool. I may look into that for the future.

If you go with that option, most of the firefox extensions work with the portable app version, so for example, if you use xmarks to sync your bookmarks, you could keep them synced to your home computer and the portable version.

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