Better than marking the store as your territory.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
And my iPhone has crashed and rebooted three times already. I'm going to have to go back to the store. Shit.

Just got a new work computer with Win 7, up from XP Pro. After the usual "install work apps, reset passwords, what the hell is that setting doing?" stuff, I think I'm pleased. I'm getting to like the collapsed buttons on the task bar, but more than anything I'm loving the fact that I can rearrange the buttons on the task bar--all the Internet-based stuff together, the open applications together, the look-up stuff together. Very nice.

it's a feature, not a bug. My 3gs has been crashing after IOS4. I think I may need to do a restore or something.

My 3G hasn't needed to be restarted (yet), but music playback has gone to shit. Tons of skipping.

It restarted on its own, I haven't done it manually.

A friend is going to be traveling in the Amazon for work. So she is getting a sattelite phone, and solar charger. Since all power for phone and computer will come from the solar charger she is looking for a laptop with extended battery life that can run for eight or tweleve hours off what would be a four hour charge for a normal laptop. General use, not e-reader, but on the other hand super capabilities not needed. First thought was netbook, but it looks like many netbooks actually have fairly lousy battery life. So general purpose lapton (Window or Mac) with really exceptional battery life, and battery life prioritized over other factors. Not that memory, disk space and processor speed are not welcome just that battery life comes first. Um and ability to stand up to hot humid conditions, cause no air conditioning for the next six months, and probably no temperatures below 90 degrees and no humidity less than absurd.
