I hate you, Palm Treo 720p

At first, I loved my Treo. It let me check email, surfing the internet wasn't a big pain and it had a full QWERTY keyboard. But, for some reason now, the damn thing keeps turning itself off and on, at random. It's a BIG pain in the ass. Alternatives? Not much out there (for Sprint, anyway). I could go Blackberry, but then I'd lose the touch screen capabilities. I could go with the new Instinct, but Sprint gouges you on the price (I'd be paying $100 a month for the same features I'm paying like almost $70 for right now). Aside from those, what else is there really? I wouldn't mind getting another Palm, but I need Windows Mobile OS, because the Palm OS sucks the big one.

The Zune has landed

Ever since I ordered it last week, I've been dying to get my Zune 120 in the mail. Well, today it finally arrived. I charged it up, wiped the BS that was on it and uploaded my music and a test movie. And yes, that movie is DOA: Dead or Alive, the best bad movie ever made. Why? Nanobots, dude. Nanobots.
