hardware stuff
i got nothing much to do today. wet and rainy and not hungry so i surf.
i found a good article on usb 3.0 which will be 10 times faster and expected to have a wide deployment by 2010. that’s not far. by that time, terabyte drives should be common enough as well as quad core cpus, gigabit speeds will also be the de facto standard on network ports built into each motherboard and don’t accept anything less than 4 gig ram. 
this will be fun although by that time i think i wouldn’t care as much.
my cell phone might have died already. its been plugged in for more than 48 hours, the red led is on but it hasn’t shown me a “charging” icon on the display. stupid phone. i do not think i’ll use a sony ericsson anymore unless i’m given one. but for now i’ll start saving up for a hello moto. i just need to send text messages and play my mp3. making calls is secondary.
oh yeah. before i forget — a little rant, if i may. have you guys seen those cell phones with teeny tiny qwerty keyboards. has anyone tried using it as a qwerty keyboard? you can’t even fit both your hands side by side on the thing! duh.
