Argh.

Work. Too much of it. Not enough people. Can't catch up. I can only do so much in 8 hours. I'll do my best not to work more than I have to, but while I'm there I won't slack. Argh. Argh. Argh.

It was so nice last week when everybody was at work, and then this week and we're down by 3 (out of 7). And the work piles up, and customers get pissed. Argh.

But hey, I'm going to Hawaii in January, but only for a weekend. Wooo. Something to look forward to.

Geeky goodness

Just bought a Sony Ericsson T610. Very slick phone.

Got Bluetooth set up on my PowerBook at home and used iSync with it. Used the phone as a GSM modem (9600bps, baby!). Got fed up with 9600bps, and enabled T-zones (T-Mobile) on the phone. Didn't have a GPRS connection, but a call to T-Mobile support remedied that, so now I have the phone as a GPRS Bluetooth modem. It works pretty well - about 5K/sec. Not spectacular, but not bad.

Brought the phone to work, and enabled IrDA on it and got my old Pismo PowerBook, which has built-in IrDA, to use the phone as a GSM and GPRS modem. Still very good.

Mmmm, phone. Intarweb from anywhere. Unlimited GPRS. Yes, very good.
