I'm pretty sure I've slammed hard upon the limitations of Locale.
It lets you set one type of every condition (if clause) and one type of every setting (then statement). So, it seems that for every situation (entire statement), you can't do location and location or location or location. And you can't execute the same sort of setting twice without duplicating the entire situation (to beep for the to-do tag "Ralphs" and "Supermarket" under the same conditions you have to duplicate the entire statement. But you can do location *and* caller in one situation. I'm not entirely sure how to do a given location *or* a given caller.
Gris, I'm assuming Tasker doesn't have these limitations, does it? I'd like to know before I shell out money. The documentation for this shit seems really spotty.
I don't think you can do an "or" with Tasker, either, though "ands" are possible. However, it is possible to save your "then" sections (called Tasks in Tasker) with a name, so creating different situations with the same "then" section is really easy.
If anyone is interested in a Nook Simple Touch, Target has it for $99 bundled with a $30 gift card, plus the $5 off $50 coupon here [link] worked for me. That made it $64 rather than $79, the B&N price. (I'm spending my birthday money.)
The new Gmail has been persistantly annoying me with the transparent (and therefore invisible) scroll bar - here's an extension that fixes it in Chrome, in case I'm not the only one:

Yes, I hate the new gmail.
Thank you.
There's a lot about the functionality that I like, but the invisible scroll bar was driving me batty.
Now if only I could find an extension to pin open the folder/label list...
go back to the old gmail!
I hate the scroll bar, too.
But isn't the new gmail just gonna be mandatory in a while? I may be techily wrong, o' course...

Yeah, that's why I don't switch back to the old one. I'm going to have to get used to the new interface eventually, no sense in delaying the inevitable!
I use the Dusk theme in new Gmail, and my scroll bar is visible. Maybe it's just invisible with the standard theme?
