I fucked around with my Treo again…
Bought the silly PalmOne WiFi SDIO card for my Treo yesterday believing that the stupid hack from Shadowmite might work. Actually it did work. What I failed to realise was that this was the typical American who hacks away with brute force. Sheesh. No bloody finesse. The hack made the WiFi work for the Treo1 but it killed the GPRS functionality for the Blazer web browser function AND it buggered the Bluetooth function. I can’t have that can I? I’m already driving on the brink of a cliff wall when I sms with this phone2 while driving. Anyways it doesn’t really work very well. The crap that I had to go through included the following:
- unannounced and unwarranted resets. (and sometimes i didn’t even touch the stupid thing)
- it crashes like crazy
- it wouldn’t detect my wireless AP even if I was sitting right in front of it
- it wouldn’t register changes in the SSID
- sometimes it registered changes
- sometimes it worked
So the bottomline is, go ahead and get the fucking hack from Shadowmite if a) you don’t need bluetooth
b) you don’t use GPRS
c) you don’t mind fucking around with your Palm Treo
That is to say, if you treat your Treo like a fracking toy and not a tool. Americans! BAH!
So what happened? I lost about a month’s worth of calender data, because coupled with this shit that happened, my stupid laptop has problems recognising USB shit. Go figure, it’s Windows. Not much got lost, some unimportant numbers which I managed to get back and a weeks worth of calender data for future appointments. I remember them so “mehhh!” (frick. I smell bacon, ham and eggs and I haven’t gotten out of bed since I woke up at 12! haha. I was working on my laptop in bed last night.) Now I’m selling the silly WiFi card on Yahoo Auctions. SOMEONE PLEASE BUY IT! FRICK! >:/
I have this massive blister the size of a 5 cent coin which I woke up with. It’s the stupid new SAF New Balance shoes that I bought. I used them in the gym yesterday. I only had a short workout. It was kind of an experimental workout for me, short because I had to meet Chris at Bedok to buy the 42″ Plasma TV for the office. *drool* I get to set it up with the presentations that are going to be on it. yippee. 
I guess I just have to get used to the stupid shoes. Tried the rowing machine yesterday, it’s a fantastic workout if you don’t mind looking like an idiot. I don’t it’s a farking good workout. And you burn calories like mad. The back and arms get a pretty decent workout! I swear!!

1 Apparently Palm caved in to the bitching of the American mobile telephony companies.
It seems that if WiFi were enabled, it’d mean that telcos can’t charge their slaves
addicts apparently unseemingly unwitting “customers,” thousands of dollars a year racked
up in GPRS packet data. Not to mention GPRS data plans and perhaps even PCMCIA cards for laptops and
other various accessories!

Wordsworth was probably high on opium again. Wheee!
Daffodils
I WANDER’D lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch’d in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
- William Wordsworth. 1770–1850
