Which laptop? If it's the older, crappy one, then it's time to take it back to the school and have it re-imaged.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Have you run a virus scan?

Yep, I've run AVG and Malware Bytes. And Windows, I think.

Can anyone explain why my iPhone is suddenly refusing to believe there is signal anywhere? Places I'm quite certain there is signal?

try restarting your phone.

Yah, that was the first thing I tried, it didn't work. Phone seems to occasionally believe there is old school signal? But never 3g.

I think you should bring this into the apple store.

Thanks for mentioning ClickToFlash, Tom. I needed that and didn't know it existed.
ita and other Android users: Are you running into many Android apps that won't work on the Cliq (or whatever phone)? I've been told that the Motoblur optimization might interfere with some apps, but I can't figure out if that's a real problem.
Yes, I am still trying to decide on a new phone. If I waffle long enough, there will be a whole new generation of phones to consider.

Noisedesign: how is the ipad as an ereader. Of course it is backlit, which means more eyetrain no matter what, but how does resolution for plain old text compare to eink?
Ultimately I think I'm going to have to actually look at an ipad, but I'd still value your opinion. My Mom's current computer will probably die in the next year and a half. She mainly does browsing and email, with very light composition. And I'm thinking when it is replaced it would be great if she had something portable enough to read the morning paper on-line while eating breakfast. But a regular 20 inch flat screen gives her eyestrain if she uses it too long. So how does an ipad compare to a good desktop monitor? Easier on the eyes, harder on the eyes, about the same?
