UX-50

After the easter holidays, I took 4 days off but then used most of those to refurbish the ceiling in a flat in Hannover. That didn’t stop me from picking up a new toy: a Sony Clie UX-50 Palm PDA. Having owned a Palm before (Sony’s first, the Clie PEG-S300 IIRC), the transition was easier for me than for Alex and Patrick who have only used Pocket PCs before. It is a very nice machine, good (bright) screen, surprisingly usable keyboard, bluetooth and wireless LAN (which eats up the battery rather quickly).

Proper shoes

When I went to town (in Braunschweig this time) on Friday, I also remembered to buy some proper indoor sports / squash shoes. After having tried them yesterday, I can say the difference is like night and day. Not that I’m playing any better… :p
Lesson learned: Get proper shoes. Your joints will thank you!
