You want the one card because it's better
How?
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

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

I haven't seen a downside to having two, so I wondered.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
In my never-ending quest to no-really-seriously get a new cell phone, I may have narrowed it down to two choices.
One involves buying an LG Rumor 2. The other involves buying a Sidekick. The Sidekick is significantly more expensive. Is there anything that really makes it worth it?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Ooh! Palm-sized keyboard works like a laptop in your hand
Home theater keyboards continue to evolve, and each iteration seems to get more practical. This 6-inch-wide Rii Mini Wireless Keyboard fits in the palm of your hand, and features handy LED backlit keys for use in darkened environments, rechargeable batteries, and a just-big-enough touchpad. You don't need to point it directly at your computer, because it wirelessly communicates with a USB receiver you plug into the PC. And what's that? A laser pointer? Perhaps that's getting overly helpful, Brando.
Nevertheless, now we're getting somewhere. Keyboards are a must when using a computer in the home theater, and this could be the next incremental improvement. TiVo had the right idea, this week rolling out its new remote with that slide-out keyboard for its Series 4 models. If we could combine that TiVo remote technology with this Rii device, we might be getting close to the perfect PC controller for home theater.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The Sidekick has had some problems lately, so I'm not sure I'd recommend it.
(Problems like all of everyone's personal data being deleted for a week while Microsoft and T-Mobile bickered over who was responsible for the outage.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Thanks for the sander advice everybody. I'm volunteering to refinish some stuff for my sister-in-law & although I have faith in elbow grease, she likes toys.

Painted or varnished stuff?

1 painted, 1 varnished.

dcp, thanks for the Star Contact tip. It's beyond me why both this and Android's default contact app decide that displaying the phone number is better than displaying the company name when there's a company name. But the searchability is a start.
