Finally, I got mail from Hong Kong:


Safely wrapped in a news paper.


It comes in a very manly Champaign Gold color


This box has a quality appeal, compared to the device it self :)


I like the form factor


What's in the box? That's in the box.


Let's see... Okay there is a steaming cooking pot on the right and the instruction on the top probably suggest to better read a news paper instead.


Well, not MY first choice, but okay at least it started...


First step into Maemo development

I must say, installing Ubuntu was really easy and it included partitioning the partly filled hard drive. Grub2 found my XP installation. The only thing that took me a while was figuring out, how to change the default OS to boot. Here I’m missing a fancy GUI tool, not so much for me, but for the standard n00b, because I think many linux n00bs still want their XP be the default OS to boot.

Funny thing, I still haven’t slipped and fell with my bike, only on foot.

Interesting, if true

Ich habe heute ein paar Pflanzen für mein Aquarium nachgekauft. Noch herrscht Chaos und viele Partikel schweben durch das Becken, morgen sieht das sicher besser aus:
14122009299
Welche Pflanzen neu sind, ist denke ich deutlich zu erkennen, da sich noch nicht diese schöne Bräunung der alten Pflanzen haben:

  • Die drei Utricularia graminifolias im Vordergrund
  • Mehr Eleocharis acicularis auf der rechten Seite
  • Links und rechts von den neuen Garnelen-Röhren: Bacopa lanigera

Die Namen habe ich mir natürlich alle nur so ausgedacht… Ausserdem habe ich diese Garnelen-Röhren gekauft. Ich finde sie zu groß, mal sehen ob die Garnelen sie mögen und ob ich mich an ihren Anblick gewöhne.
