And here I thought I had found the answer to my More Mobile Than Mobile quandary…namely, the problem of carrying all the associated stuff.
Big ups to Engadget for finding this. I think.

The favorite pastime for people too lazy to learn how to play a real guitar buzzsaws its way onto Windows Mobile later today.
Available as either a one-time purchase or subscription license, Guitar Hero III Mobile includes a pretty good initial setlist…
Put Iggy Pop’s “Search & Destroy” on the playlist, and I’m an insta-buyer. Put “Sweet Home Alabama” on there, and I’m a lifetime purchaser.
Better yet, come out with the REAL killer game for Windows Mobile based on fake musicianship!

What’s dumber than a virus intended to “revive the golden era” of virii?
The nitwits what designed and coded it, that’s what.
Here’s how the description should really read…
The virus will then hit at random, but only once. It will not replicate itself, mail itself to your friends or destroy any of your files, but instead provides you with moments of blissful surprise and magic…at least until you get a pink slip for violating your company’s usage policy for intentionally infecting company machines with a virus, that is.
Yeah, I know…harsh. Know what’s harsher? The amount of money burnt on time-wasting productivity-killing b.s. like this.
Best of all?
This so-called virus is Mac only.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and I’d like to get some confirmation on this. So post up your thoughts. Don’t be shy.
Windows has a big problem.
No, it isn’t Vista.
No, it isn’t Apple.
No, it isn’t Linux.
I think that Windows biggest problem is…Windows.
Or more specifically, windows.
Even in this Amazing Technicolor Dream World of 24” widescreen UWXVGA+++ screens x 2…
I still find myself spending an inordinate amount of time shuffling layer upon layer of windows!
It disgusts me the sheer amount of time I literally waste in a given week moving/resizing/minimizing/maximizing windows.
But I have an idea. A pretty good idea I think. About a way to totally and completely erdicate that. Well, at least knock it down by roughly 95%.
So I guess this is my first big huge massive vaporware announcement.
If you want to beta-test this when it reaches that stage (sorry, no timeline yet), then post a comment or shoot an e-mail to truckfullofninjas AT chrisrue.com. I can’t guarantee everyone a spot, but I’ll do the best I can to get every one in who wants in.
And in case you just missed it right there…
TruckFullOfNinjas = the official codename.
Just wait’ll you see THAT t-shirt!

Sweet Mother of Moses!
This takes me right back to the early and mid-70s. First-grade, to be exact…
Better…Stronger…Faster!
