OpenSolaris 2008.11 Mini Review

I just installed OpenSolaris 2008.11 on VirtualBox 2.0.6. My initial impression is that it is a bit better than using the commercial Solaris, but it's still no Linux.

For some background, I currently develop software in C++ for multiple platforms. Currently my work code base will compile on Linux, Solaris 10 and Windows. I do my primary development on Linux and periodically update for any differences on Solaris and Windows.

Nokia N800 Review

I just received my Nokia N800 two days ago and thought I would give my first impressions here.

First of all the screen is amazing, as everyone says. It's 800x480 at 4.1". The resolution and sharpness is amazing. However, this resolution and size actually presents a downside where many UI elements (particularly website viewing) is too small. Yes, the webbrowser has a zoom option, but it's not quite perfect; not as good as the zooming capability of the iPhone, for instance.
