Gone Back To Paper

Submitted by mimsathome on 1 July 2008 - 11:19am.

I can't/won't keep up with how quickly things change. Even my trusty old Palm is antiquated and no longer supported. Palm only sells three handheld planners now. All the rest are whiz bang phones that come with everything. I'm lucky I have a cell phone with no camera in it. I wanted to buy a new one but had to pay EXTRA for a cell phone with no camera in it.

This is a rant, I know. I'm going back to my trust worthy Fraklin paper planner, and hopefully can keep using my trusty pre-paid (cost less than $100 per year) cell phone. At least until it gives up on its own!

Which is all to justify my I Wait Until I Really Need...answer to the quick poll.

The deal about new stuff

I learned something about technology some 20 years ago that holds true to this day;yeah i know that makes me and ancient.

There's a fine line between the leading edge and the bleeding edge. Lean it only once, or you'll bleed to death.

A propos de la messagerie Evolution

Submitted by serge-muscat on 18 July 2008 - 2:34pm.

Le programme Evolution se bloque lorsqu'on passe d'une rubrique à une autre, par exemple de la boite de réception au clandrier ou à un autre menu. Je voulais vous le signaler. Il se bloque pendant une dizaine de secondes environ et la page souhaitée apparait.

S.M.
