I'd love it if all I had to do was HotSync and all became happiness and joy.

No more opening iSiloX and converting all my channels (sending them to my special folder) and putting the SD card into the card reader and copying over the files from aforementioned folder and returning the card and opening iSilo on the Palm and deleting all those annoying "_blahblahblah.pdb." copies (that cannot be found because they reside on the SD card, just like the rest) until I get to the real .pdb's that contain my most wanted info.

No more warGoogling trying to find the special URL that contains the secret "mobile" version of the website if I want if I want small file sizes (with petite conversion times).

No more biting the bullet and sacrificing precious MB's of the card for those websites that just take up, like, between 10 and 53 MB's. No more waking up 45 minutes earlier just to convert my iSilo files for the day so I can copy them over to the SD card.

No more heinous configuring sessions tying to determine the correct amount of blood, sweat and tears that each channel deserves.

No more reading a buncha forums (mostly Turcic) trying to search for like-minded queries so I won't look like a total dweeb when I post my mundane issue that was probably covered in "the old forums".

I like iSilo and everything (and I LOVE turcic.com), but I...I, um, ahem,...I I MISS AG!! <sob>

There, I said it. <sigh>

Being a Mac guy, I was forced to look elsewhere for my fix. But I miss the convenience of my easy high. Just push a button, get high. Now I feel like I have to grow the poppies and harvest the poppies and convert the poppies into drugs just to get my high.

(A little harmless drug metaphor/similie thingy.)

Well, regardless of what I want, the process of learning this new way of life hasn't killed me, but rather made me stronger. But still.

I need to marry a geek chick who's hella fine and wants to show me all this stuff as part of her wifely duties. But until then, I have you guys and girls.

Vented,
