Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:35:48 -0600

Recently, and not for the first time I came across the idea that by making and stating your intentions you can change the direction of your life.The first time I heard this idea was on public television where they aired a special called "The Power of Intention" with Wayne Dyer.

Now, years after my initial introduction, I was introduced to an online course on intending. My interest in these concepts has picked up again and I want to share what I have found along the way.

Nokia N85 firmware update 11.047

Sat, 09 Jan 2010 12:44:30 -0600

May 15, 2009: I updated my N85 to the latest firmware (v20.175). There are some visible differences from the last version. So far, no crashing. My Nokia N85 is a disaster. I will take some responsibility for the problems I'm having. I bought my phone unlocked on eBay before the North American version was available. Because my phone is from Singapore. I have no recourse. I can't get it repaired. So it's possible that my problems are due to having a defective phone. Keep that in mind when you read this page. Some people have lovely N85 devices that they can't stop raving about. That isn't the case for me.

My Nokia Is...

Fri, 22 May 2009 00:54:14 -0600

One of the best things about having a Nokia Nseries device is using it for all sorts of functions. My Nokia N85 for example, can be an mp3 and video player, a GPS, and a digital camera right out of the box. That's pretty common for cell phones but with some third-party apps my phone can do more exciting things. I don't even have to hack it to enable these features.
