Theme update, not 100% happy…

There was an update to the theme I’m using here on my blog, and there are a number of updates that work well, but I just don’t like how it handles images and links on my sidebar.  I really don’t want certain images to have a shadow under them, and I also don’t want some links to have an underline or hover action.  My tweaks to the CSS file just don’t work any more and I’ve got to print it all out to understand what the author did.  Just takes time from other things.

WiFi or Wireless WAN?

jkOnThe Run ...using mobile devices since they weighed 30lbs. Kevin C. Tofel over at jkOnTheRun poses a very interesting question: Would you give up integrated WiFi for WWAN?  Some UMPC devices only have one mini-PCI slot, and could accommodate either a WLAN or WWAN module.  Or its possible that one may want on or the other, to keep weight in the computer down, and eliminate one power drain – WiFi is terribly power-hungry.

With 3G services like EVDO and/or HSDPA, you have a nearly equivalent Internet connection speed as a WiFi connection (remember its the cable/DSL connection speed that may limit your Internet at a Hotspot).  The only downside would be associated computers at your office or residence, but if you are talking only about a Ultra Mobile PC – it may be an Internet-only device anyway.

Thoughts?

Twitter Problems?

Is twitter having problems today?  I haven’t been able to log in all morning.  Well, that is the growing pains of a beta service.
