Now this was a nice surprise; this was just a well told story that did not feel it, but it was over 2h long. If you have the time you should try and see this one. There were some problems with some parts of the story, but it did not mater, it was complex, but simple too, and it all comes together in the end. Well acted, and well filmed.

My New Windows Mobile 5 Phone, O2 Atom

Anyone that knows me, knows that I have been waiting for an all in one device, that is a phone, for a long time. I first wanted a Palm phone, however, after using a Palm for a few years without a phone, it just became a toy, a toy that was taking up space in my pocket. Also it was not convenient to use; like moving files from my computer to my Palm, using it on the Palm, and them moving them back to the PC, was not seamless or strait forward. So now I got a new Windows 5 enabled phone with WiFi, the O2 Atom from
Microsoft did not deliver with the new Windows Mobile 5 OS. Some of the problems I have had with the phone are:
- The number one complaint that I have is that you can not use the phone with one hand. I can open and run programs with one hand. However if I want to close the program, and the program does not have an exit option in its menu, I have to use the “ok” or “x” button in the top right corner. I should be able to navigate up to this button using the hardware navigation buttons, but I can’t. (I had to go into the hardware button setup and change one of the buttons, to do this for me)
- I find myself rebooting all the time. Programs hang, or the system starts to really slow down, a lot. This did not happen to me with the Palm.
- Some programs interfere with the phone. At one point, I was always getting disconnected from calls after one minute. I thought it was the phone; however I found out that it was not the phone, but a program that was disconnecting me. What made it even more baffling was that program did not have anything to do with the phone functionality.
There just seems to be this list of little things that keep giving me problems. But The one main thing that really bugs me, is that Microsoft does not have a good RSS reader, that will download text, video and Audio files. I love to read news on my phone, and I have really gotten into listening to podcasts. What I have to do today, is get the podcast from iTunes, then move them into my play list in Windows Media Player, then sync it with my phone. After I have listened to it on my phone, I delete it from my play list in Windows Media Player, sync again, and then delete it from iTunes, I hate doing going though all those steps, however if I want to listen on to the podcasts on my phone I have to do it. If I had an iPod, I would just have to sync. but I want my all in one device, not just an MP3 Player.

The Sentinel
The only thing I like about this movie was that fact that part of the movie takes place in Toronto, and they had a nice fly over of the city.
But really; I don't know why they made this movie, it looked like a poor mans 24. The story felt like it was done befor; Kiefer Sutherland was just playing the same person that he plays in 24; Michael Douglas did not feel like the big hero (I don't think it was his fault); and Eva Longoria did not really matter. On the other hand Kim Basinger did play her role well, for what is was.

Mission Impossible III
I really did not have plans to see this movie, at that time, however with all the good reviews for it, and all the bad reviews for the The Da Vinci Code, we went to go see this one
Some things people were saying about it :
Full Review
Ok I, must be completely off in left field, but I did not enjoy this movie at all, I felt like I was watching a movie from the 80’s, or early 90’s. It was the same old formal, good guy, and girlfriend having a good time, just being good people; bad guy does something bad, and kidnaps girlfriend; good guy goes underground to get bad guy, and save the girl; blah blah blah…… I’m so boarded. Maybe I watch too many movies, and I have become too cenacle; and you may love this movie, with all of its predictable twists and turns, its super human stunts, and all of its special effects. So I would not try to stop people from seeing it, it looks like a lot of people had a good time with it, but I did not.
