Snocap I found this interesting article on Snocap, Shawn Fanning (of the Napster fame)'s new venture. Conceptually not a bad idea. A registry that can identify songs and impose DRM restrictions as specified by the authors/publishers. I can see how that would be appealing to P2P networks operators, but I fail to see how that would attract the users. Seriously, if I'm going to use my computer/bandwidth to offer songs to be legally distributed on a P2P network. I am the distribution channel. I want a kickback. We all know that'll never happen. What a concept though! Getting paid for legally sharing your music collection… [@395]

My Next Phone?
I'm impatiently waiting for the release of the Nokia N80, now that it has been FCC approved. Of the flocks of phones that have been announced recently, it is undoubtedly the one coming the closest to my dream phone. I don't specifically look forward to shell over $500 for it.
[@683] I'm not sure but it looks like the USB port is located at the top. I also noticed that it is smaller than my 6630, though thicker/heavier. The only thing really missing is a standard headphone jack.
[@976] Looks like I got Darla convinced too.
