The built-in web browser in Windows Mobile is pretty bad. It doesn't support tabs, and it the rendering of html is not that good. A while ago I tried Opera Mobile, and I really liked it. Right about the time that I was going to register it, Skyfire was announced, and this browser looks very interesting.
But, I haven't been accepted to the public beta yet. Since I have still been frustrated with the built in browser, I registered Opera Mobile.
Now, maybe I will look into Opera for Linux.
This looks like it will be a fun movie.

As I mentioned earlier, I installed the new version of SqueezeCenter for our Squeezebox. This has solved the problem that I was having. I like the fact that it is not necessary that you don't have to manually go to SqueezeNetwork to listen to Pandora or MP3Tunes.
The new SqueezeCenter software has a setting where you can enter your SqueezeNetwork credentials. I think that either SqueezeCenter downloads the configuration from SqueezeNetwork or it proxies the requests through SqueezeNetwork
This post has a good description of how to backup your mail from Gmail. I know that you can do the same thing with any POP3 client, but these steps make it easy to set this up with a cron job.
I configured getmail to download the mail messages to Mbox files, as I didn't want to eat up inodes for each message with the Maildir format.
We have been having a problem with our SqueezeBox. We normally leave it connected to SqueezeNetwork so we can listen to our Pandora station. For the past couple of weeks whenever we attempt to play a station, we would get prompted to install a new firmware upgrade.
Even though the install went successfully, the SqueezeBox keeps prompting to update the software again.
I just noticed that Logitech released verion 7.0 of SqueezeCenter (which had been called SlimServer) This version integrates the content that is available on SqueezeNetwork into the local server, so you don't have to switch servers.
Hopefully this will solve the firmware upgrade prompting.
Steve posted the link to Amazon MP3 Downloader for Linux. This is wonderful, as previously whenever I purchased music from Amazon, I would have to boot into Windows or use one of our Macs.
Now only if Logitech makes the Harmony remote software available for Linux, I wouldn't need a Mac or Windows PC.
