Thanks, ita ! and meara.

Argh. Half an hour on the phone (which is to say, burning up my cell minutes) and the guy basically said "well, must be something on your end". GRRR.

ETA: I'm paying for a tech to come out, and hoping he'll magically fix things, but my point to them is if the only phone service I can get is when it's attached to the modem, I want to cancel the service because it's not worth it to me.

3 D printers open source templates for connecting Tinkertoys, Legos, Lincoln Logs.

Astrid.com is still out for me today, argh!

Also, can I associate multiple tasks with a single context profile in Tasker? Like, I have a task named "Class" that switches my ringer to vibrate, but turns my media up and keeps my screen alive, so I can quickly play reference tracks. I use that same "Class" task at each of my school locations profiles. But now I want to add the Astrid to-do list filters for each location. So it needs to be a different task for each school.

I just logged in and deleted a task, so I got nothing for you Liese.

I am crankypants at your radiating awesomeness.

Also, did you ever get your calendar widget worked out? I'm downloading Pure Calendar (the grid version) right now to try out. It looks like it'll integrate Astrid and Google calendar, and what's more, if I also buy Widget Locker I could put access to it on my lockscreen.

Meanwhile, I'm syncing Astrid to Producteev to see if I can use that as the web interface for the duration. I may like it better anyway.

Liese is might be a DNS thing. Have you tried switching temporarily to Google public DNS?

Hmmm. That's a good idea.

Nope, doesn't seem to be it. It did reveal to me that I thought I'd switched over to OpenDNS but hadn't.

I'd also made adjustments to my cookies security, so I thought maybe that was it, that it needed to pass info to cloudfront.net, but enabling cookies doesn't seem to do the trick either.

I guess I just have to accept what Astrid is saying and hope it comes back at some point. In the meanwhile, Producteev is pretty nice.

I'm up to three computers, three routers, a switch, and two cable modems in my office. Not an impressive collection relatively speaking, but I'm building up a decent collection of hardware.
