On the way to Indiana…

Thanksgiving dinner.

The G-Men went into last night’s game needing a win to make the playoffs. Winner was in, loser went home. No pressure.

The game was called after five innings with the mercy rule, because the score was so lopsided. 29-4. Somehow, we were on the winning side of that. I have no idea how we pulled it off. We’ve never come close to scoring that many runs before, and our defense was solid. We didn’t make any baserunning mistakes, for a change, and all around played a good game. We scored the winning run in the first inning.

That was fun.

Now, to completely change the subject, I’ll talk a bit more about my Treo 600. Handspring has approved and is processing my replacement unit. Hopefully it won’t be too long before I get it, and hopefully, it works. Even without being able to use it as a phone unless it’s plugged in, I love this thing. The form factor is awesome, the speed kicks ass, and it’s just overall a great little device. If I can get one that works like it’s supposed to, it’ll be just about perfect.

I’ve written KeyCaps600 which can be found on my software page. It’s a version of KeyCapsHack that runs on the Treo 600, and I can’t imagine not having it. In fact, I’m a bit surprised Handspring didn’t build this functionality into the 600. Anyway, if you’ve got one, go download it and give it a try. You’ll never want to use the Treo 600 without it again.

Well, I got the Treo 600 today, and already I need a replacement. Mine has two problems: 1) The phone speaker is distorted like crazy. (MP3 and speakerphone work fine.) and 2) the battery doesn’t hold a charge.

Handspring is going to call me back Monday, and then it’ll be 1-2 weeks before I get the replacement. I’m going to try to find one in stock in a Cingular store this weekend so I can buy it and then return it within the 15 days (and hopefully have my replacement by then, but I doubt it.) Why do I always get the bad ones? Lots of people are reporting no problems with their GSM Treo 600s.

I guess I just have no luck with these things.

FINALLY.
