htc troubles....

It happened this month - my touch started to reset itself.

Doing a quick internet search, I've discovered that this is not a unknown issue - but the only solution was to hard reset it.

Now I wait and see how well this solution takes....

UPDATE
Called Rogers today and they are replacing my touch with a refurbished phone. It's being sent out by courier, and will not cost me a penny.

HTC Update

As of today, I have found a couple of neat programs for the Pocket PC platform:

Tuner

Metronome

Stopwatch

Still looking for a freeware chess program....

New Toy.....

The old Palm has finally bit the dust this past week. The right top corner has stopped working, and it is starting to drive me nuts, as what started as a small section gone has turned into a large 2cm by 3cm unusable corner.

So Friday I took the plunge into the market and am trying out a HTC Touch. It's on a Rogers $10 plan, and I still have a week to see if I like it. So far, I am liking most of what it can do - the calendars working OK, and I figured out the syncing part Sunday night. The only part I don't really like too much is that it uses Outlook to sync to. I've gotten so used to Palm's desktop and to Thunderbird that to use Outlook again seems weird.

I did briefly consider Blackberry as an option - except that the plans were not really good - most of the carriers out here wanted $30-45 a month for the data plans. The neat thing about the Touch is that it has Wi-Fi - I've already got it surfing at home and at the dance school Nathanael goes to, and today I got it linked to a Second Cup hot spot.

What gets me is that most of the software that I have on the Palm will not be usable on the Touch. oh well.....
