Back from Vacation!

We've been at the trailer in West Virginia since last Tuesday... miss me?

While I am much more rested & relaxed than when we left, it has been a less than stellar trip for all things electronic...

I spent a half-hour in full-blown panic when I suspected I had lost my flash memory but relaxed once it was located in the car. It must have fallen from my pocket when I was getting out my keys or the like.

My Palm Tungsten E2 died a slow & painful death. I attempted to look up an address when it suddenly blanked out. Attempts to resuscitate it failed. I hit the reset button in the back: the screen went to green and refused further attempts at resetting or rebooting and the battery eventually drained. Now home, I plugged it in to find all records wiped. When I attempt to configure it for resyncing via USB and my main computer, it declares a memory word alignment error and crashes.

My Tungsten E has been brought out of retirement and is working well. I may attempt syncing the E2 with the Bluetooth option but I'll work on that later.

The power supply for my Sony Vaio laptop is acting oddly as well. It was working previously but now it's not acknowledging electricity at all. As of last night, my laptop is completely without a battery charge. Grrr.

At least my camera did not explode. I have many lovely photos to upload and display later.
