Failed Update and New Pictures
I tried to update CuteNews but it turns out the new version has a mandatory "Powered By" message at the bottom of the news, so I decided to revert back. I'm perfectly fine with the "Powered By" message, I've always had it on the right side of my homepage, but I don't like them deciding where it goes. So I'm going to have to start looking for a new (simple) content management system.
Since I had nothing to do I posted some of my photos from Arcadia National Park, Cleveland, and Fire Island.

New Gmini 400
Archos didn't fix my Gmini, they sent me a new one. It works fine and I'm happy. Was hoping they would send me the new Gmini 402, but I guess that's too much to hope for.

Gmini 400 Screen Busted
I just sent my Gmini 400 in for repairs, the screen is busted. I get a white screen on startup and nothing else. It sometimes works again, but quickly fades to black after a little use. Hope they fix it without giving me trouble (I've been a little rough with it), else I take back everything nice I said about them. I'm probably never going to get an expensive item like this again, probably get a nice small flash player next time. Something from Creative, my Nomad II still works like a charm, it's what I'm using now.

New web host!
I just moved my site to lunarpages.com, heard it's a pretty good host with good customer service. It's also a little cheaper and provides more space and bandwidth. So far so good, only required minor changes to move my site over. The only thing I'll miss is SSH access to my site, but I'll get over it.
Update: While I was at it, I upgraded the news and photo gallery scripts too.

Back from a week at Vail, Colorado!
Whoa, that was a lot of fun. I got a chance to do a lot of different things. We went snowshoeing, snowmobiling, went to Denver, Rocky Mountain National Park, and last but not least snowboarded at Vail. Snow is definitely fun. And the weather can’t be beat, much warmer than NYC during the same week. Here are some photos from the trip, and video (xvid or wmv) of me busting my ass on a snowmobile.

Archos Gmini 400!
I just got a new toy, the Archos Gmini 400 MP3, Video, Photo viewer, and gaming device. It's about the same size as an iPod, but does so much more!
I had another Archos Personal Video Player before, a Jukebox Multimedia 20 (JMB20). The JBM20 was good, but it was a brick and didn't have enough juice to play high resolution videos. The JBM20's batteries really sucked, it started dying after about 6 months of use, hope its better with the Gmini 400. If the Gmini turns out bad, it may very well be the last Archos device I’ll ever buy. This isn’t baseball, they only get two strikes, especially on these expensive devices.
But so far so good with the Gmini 400, I love this thing! There are some problems with videos, lots of videos I had uses VBR MP3 for audio which causes a lag on the Gmini, but luckly it can be fixed quickly with VirtualDub. Others have to be re-encoded completely, but can't expect much from a tiny hand held device. The only complain I have is with the gaming platform they picked. Mophun is good, but there are just no free games. They should have went with a Java platform.

Back from Canadian Adventure!
I'm back from my two week Canadian camping adventure. It's been a fun two weeks, the weeks went by so quickly. But it's back to work on Monday. Will post photos as soon as I pick out some good ones (out of the 500+ that I've taken).
