Mobility, Winter and Bad Chairs

I will start my piece today with a rant. A rant so pure and sincere, that I even hate writing about it. I have had three chairs, at my computer, in the last year or two, and none of them were cheap. In fact, I hate spending money on chairs. Where ever did you hear about someone paying money for chairs? I guess this is why my back keeps hurting. My third chair, and current one, a typist chair model 2005, is killing me. If you are in the market for a desk chair for your computer, spend alot of money. *tip*

Secondly, I have finished my Linux module studies today, now i just need to get to college in one piece, so I can apply these skills (which I really had for years, and not because of this silly module) on the 'institutions' computer, and benefit by this by recieving marks and a good averages. :)

My Nokia 6680 is 6 days old today, and finally, tommorow the 7 day warranty effect is over. This means I can actually start using my phone, consuming my free minutes, and stop asking people not to call me. Nokia does have (apparently) this warranty where I may not use more than 15 minutes of "usage" on the timers, before 7 days. This is probably just in good will, and to see if something breaks. Not that I am aware of any phones ever breaking because of being in a conversation with someone.

Maybe it's not good will at all. *paranoid*.
If there should be something wrong with the phones amplification module, or other electronics that really actually only get used 'IN' calls, then I wouldn't really know about until the exchange warranty voids, would I. Clever one Nokia...

Nevertheless, I am happy with this, I have in fact never been happier with a techy device, like I am with this smartphone. It's awesome, its sexy, its fast.
And while this blog is turning into a review *gg*, you might as well check out JBenchmark's results page, since I have scored second highest score for my phone there. *evil laugh*. (I am mbvdl obviously)

Software on my Nokia 6680 that work well, and is free, as we speak, is:
CellTrack
JBenchmark3D
TaskSpy
Journey 2 (the game)
jmIrc
OggPlay
Frozen Bubble
Putty
FExplorer
Adobe reader
Opera (not free, but Nice until it expires...)

Ill post some more stuff later on.
I think i need a 128 MB at least MMC card, the current 64 MB feels so limited.

Ok, I guess it is time to go, Need to do some research on J2ME.
