In which I did a hard-reset on my PPC and started over.
I did a hard reset on my PPC at dinner the other night. Factory default. All data lost.
Yesterday I sat down and took the time to load it full of software again. I flashed to Windows Mobile 2003 SE, like, finally. I installed Pocket Universe, an adorable little app I bought back in January of 2004 but hadn’t run for awhile because my device was out of memory. It allows you to set your long. & lat. and then cleverly displays all the naked-eye objects in your night sky. (It’s a really handy app to have in one’s purse when someone says, “What’s that?” because you can look it up on the spot — it even has satellites.)
The company that made the application, Stellarmetrics, is no longer online, but it looks like these people are still selling and supporting (what appears to be an older version of) it.
I have too much PPC software to install it all on the device I have, so each time I start over I load different stuff on it.
I still want a new one. Not just because it’s full already, but because the buttons don’t work correctly and it’s all scratched up.
Excuse me while I go re-enter two weeks worth of checkbook items.

i’m not that technological. i still use a datebook/daytimer.
today’s random picture for me was the cup of chai on the cup warmer. i still want the cup warmer.
The Mr Coffee Mug Activated Warmer is totally tits. I love it. -m
I’m so with Naomi, damnit! You have all the fun with your little gadgets and whatnot. I’m so ignorant about this stuff.
Like Naomi, I just write my appointments in a BIG book. (I guess it something similar to a day timer.)
But each day, I grow. You help me feel good about my new found technological geekdom.
Come on over to the dark side, honey. 😉 -m
