I recieved my Dell Mini 10v last week and used mydellmini.com forums to rightfully install Snow Leopard. Well, it worked without a glitch and now it is
the cheapest Apple Netbook you could purchase.

Finally the wordpress app for iPhone is out today. I was waiting for this app to be released since I heard about this in Steve’s keynote. Well it’s here now and I intend to explore all features of this app. Testing the post with a photo from my library.

I know monday morning blues… is there a friday morning blues !! Well it happened to me today. This morning when I woke up, I was greeted by a message in my iTunes with something like this..

The “Technology Early Adopter” part of me immediately wanted to try it. I clicked the Download and Install button. iTunes got into action immediately by downloading the iPhone OS 2.0 (About 214Mb), and backed up my current settings and installed the new version. However, when time came to activate the phone with this new software, guess what shows up.. ” AN UNKNOWN ERROR”.  uh OH….

I had to call up iPhone support to confirm that its actually iTunes server issue rather than mine. Digged up google and found there were fellow iPhone owners facing the same issue. Gave me a  sigh of relief. 

So now I am carrying a bricked iPhone and have to wait until evening when I get back home to see if iTunes server is up and activating.. Feel bad that Apple chose a wrong day to release both iPhone 3G and iPhone OS 2.0.

While this day started out to be a lazy one, I was greeted with a wonderful message from the Google Reader. Yes I spend my brushing time with Google Reader in the morning ;-). To my surprise, I saw GTalk released for IPhone. whooo whoo ! Just go to www.google.com/talk from your iPhone browser or you can go to http://www.google.com/mobile/apple/talk/ and enter your phone number for Google to send you a link to your Iphone via SMS.

I tested this out immediately with my iPhone, and what a pleasant surprise ! Loaded up beautifully and worked like a charm. Bringing GTalk to iPhone was one of the best apps that Google ported for this device. Screenshots from Google Talk here..

One more thing I liked about Google for Iphone is the icons for the home screen.. with GTalk, I got this .

Talk to you all in GTalk from iPhone..

Back from weekend, its been a long day at work so far.. well monday morning staff meetings and conference calls takes a large chunk of your work hour. Over the past two weekends, at home, I have been re-arranging my computer setup. I noticed that I spend more time just browsing when I am home. Part of the reason is, having a computer accessible to you near the family room. I used to have my computers setup at the Den in my home.

So, I decided to split up my setup. My main computer, that I use for browsing, photo editing, emailing aka Mac Mini is now moved to 2nd floor with the lcd monitor. My other desktop box a core2duo self built Ubuntu Hardy Heron box is used only for torrents ;-). So, he is now a headless box living near my entertainment center. Voila ! The den is now free and looks less cluttered. Atleast makes my wife happy.

She now initiated the curtains for Den project this weekend and now, we have a curtain for the entry to Den. Oh by the way, did you notice that I dont have a windows system at home. My wife curses me for that, while I just installed a Windows XP for her in the VMWare Server inside my Ubuntu box. And yes..,
