I’ve decided my Motorola A1000 is not as crap as I decided it was.
After the firmware upgrade some stuff is fast. It still can reboot for no reason altho that could be the new application I use on it. I haven’t got it set up to use the internet again, but that could be a good thing as it will save me surfing while mobile and using up money. At least with the new application below I won’t really need it anyway.
I wondered if Avant Go was available for Symbian UIQ and it turns out they have a version so I installed it and reactivated my account.
I haven’t had a lot of use for it for ages. I used to synchronise news and other websites before going to work while I lived in Sydney and read the news on the train to work. Since I’ve been living on the Gold Coast, I’ve been driving to work as it’s only a 15 minute drive away. Now, work is sending me up to Brisbane a couple of days a week which is a one hour trip on the train each way. So now I have lots of time to spare. I read Bec’s old VB book and wanted something else so installed Avant Go.
It seems to be a lot better than the version I used a couple of years ago on the Palm so I’m glad of that. A lot easier to use too. I added some more sites to read and now I synchronise it every morning before heading off to work.

Wow, an hour each way. If I had to do that without my DS, I’d probably shoot myself in the eye before too long.

I’ve heard of guys doing that on dvdz and some websites. Apparently you can get paid lots of money if you put a swizzle stick in it first and see how far you can shoot it..
