how can i help?

hey blog, how are you doing? feeling neglected? yeah yeah, suck it up.

i’m ok… been having some tech dramas lately.

that draft post is still sitting in the queue, i was supposed to blog all about how quickly and easily i jailbroke my ipod touch after upgrading to v2 firmware and successfully installed cydia… but no. instead i managed to brick it. pretty much beyond repair. i’ll go to an apple store **eww** tomorrow to see if they will help me out, i say “will” because i know they “can”, but probably won’t want to. omission and feigning ignorance will be my defence. we’ll have to see how it goes.

did i mention how much i hate closed platforms? so so much.

also, mate and i bought an eeepc901 each last thursday (i think it was thursday?)

it’s awesome, i mucked around with a couple of things and him being the SOE guru he is, gave me a dual booting image of XP-SP3 and gOS sah-weet.

my hands are adjusting to the keyboard ok, i didn’t realise how much i use the right ctrl key until now! …you know what they say “you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone you lose it”… um ok… i may or may not have just quoted phil collins… ahhh! and then i googled the correct lyric and corrected it, i need help!

also in my attempts to free my ipod touch of itunes, a lot of software was installed on my pc and i became increasingly frustrated and ended up rebuilding it… and then got a bit excited and installed windows7 and gOS on it, along the way creating four primary partitions and accidentally making the boot up process kind of complicated as far as choosing an OS goes… so, looks like i’ll have to rebuild it AGAIN. terrific huh.

ok well, hopefully next time i’ll have some better news…
