Ponderings For 2007-04-09
- The Dell Axim: RIP. I’ve owned both a Dell DJ (music player) and a Dell Axim (PDA) and Dell has discontinued making both types of products since. I guess they should stay away from any portable markets if they just can’t stick with it. Wanna know why I wouldn’t have bought another Axim again, even if they hadn’t stopped the line? Because they all but abandoned models the second they were released. Rarely did they get any fix updates, and I can’t remember any examples of them getting an OS upgrade. I was seriously annoyed on my Axim X30 when they refused to release (even as a paid option) the SE release of Pocket PC 2003 (I think it was).
- Andy Barker, PI has bitten the dust already. It was a pretty good show. How all these shows get mowed down by networks before anyone has a chance to even realize they exist, while complete and total crap like The Apprentice and The Search For The Next Pussycat Doll (or whatever it’s called) is beyond me. The broadcast networks are the number one annoyance of being a TV fan. That, and the Nielsens are a completely useless system in the modern world.
- Check out the awesome furniture
- The interesting looking Cowon Q5 PMP
- I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the new version of DVD Profiler rocks. I love this app. If you’ve got a DVD collection, I can’t recommend any other app anywhere near even a fraction as much as DVD Profiler. I also highly recommend the additional DVD Profiler Mobile app if you’ve got a Pocket PC/Windows Mobile device. I additionally recommend the phpDVDprofiler web front-end application if you’ve got a web server/host to use it on.
Random Fact Of The Day: There are 240 white dots in a Pacman arcade game.
Dialog Of The Day: “One slayer fighting alone is formidable. Two is formidabler. Or… three? Mega-formidable. And after mega, it goes to mondo, then super, hyper, beaucoup d’, crazy, stupid… It gets exponentially prefixy.” (Buffy Summers in issue #2 of the “Season 8″ Buffy The Vampire Slayer comic series)
Video Of The Day: A 10,000 coin domino run. Can you imagine setting that up? Good grief.
