Days of Wires and Roses
Lately things have been really busy with work, classes, taxes, other groups I’m involved with, etc. Couple of tech items to note:
Rogue Amoeba’s Airfoil + radio show archives + Airport Express + stereo = “This American Life,” on demand.
My iPod is a constant companion. 90% of the time I’m sitting at a desk, I’m plugged into it. Still haven’t gotten it half way full. I’m planning on moving all of my MP3s from my laptop to the iPod and keeping a back up on my B&WG3 at home.
Still looking for a Bluetooth split-layout keyboard. All SLK’s have either been wired or use a customer non-Bluetooth wireless channel.
The sudden rise of interest in Bluetooth supported by new cell phone that I have for a subcontracting job (ie, I don’t use it for personal calls.) which is a Nokia 6230. iSync on the Mac OS X Panther does not support the device directly, through there’s third party solutions for Nokia Apple iSync issues. Maybe 10.4 (Tiger) will bring support for this cool phone.
The other day, Amy was telling me that the new Crest mouthwash is easier on the mouth, but has a curious side effect.
She said, “I thought you’d like to know that your wife now has a mouth full of Bluetooth.”
