i was one of the beta testers for the fitbit and have been using it since mid-august, and i created meals almost right away. every day, i just get on, click my breakfast meal, click my snacks, click my 'standard' dinners.. makes it real simple.

i used to use my sony ericsson w850i to track my steps, since it has a built-in pedometer. being able to have all that data wirelessly upload to a website and see a graph of the data is way more helpful than only having it on my phone. and better still, the data uploads when you're near any fitbit base station, not just your own. i got a fitbit for a friend, and everytime i'm over at their house, my data syncs up to the website.

i pre-ordered mine last year after reading about it here on engadget, and i've been fortunate enough to have beta tested the fitbit over the last month and some days.. it was definitely worth the year wait, that's for sure. the sleep tracking has been one of the most interesting things for me to see, especially.

and that battery life.. it's actual. trust me. :D

t-mobile actively promotes their paperless billing, and only offers summary billing or paperless for free. the paper detailed bill costs $1.99 per month. thanks.

yessssssss, come to papa!

finally, a nice sony ericsson coming to t-mobile, and me with an upgrade just waiting to be used. do want!

i bought the hp mini 1000 mi a month and a half ago, 512 mb ram, 10.1 in screen.

i love how easy it is to swap the ram out. i already had a 1 gb stick so rather than paying hp for it, i got the 512 and swapped it out when it arrived. it does run pretty hot, though.

honestly, all the complaints about the trackpad.. i love the trackpad. it's wider than the trackpad on my dell xps m1330, and i have absolutely no issues with the buttons. i find it much easier to use, in fact, than the buttons below the trackpad on my dell. i don't have to keep my fingers all scrunched up, i can have my hand in a normal position and hit the buttons.

the screen resolution wasn't an issue at first, but after using the web, definitely need to increase the resolution - it just can't fit most websites without the need to scroll tons.

i mostly use my hp mini to blog and check myspace/facebook/etc. i would've loved to use the email interface, but since it doesn't auto-update with previews of the email, it's worthless to me. i would have preferred an option of a web-based widget connecting directly to my gmail account. also, the option of re-arranging the widgets or adding new ones would be a big plus.

i downloaded freeciv and was playing that with pretty much no issues, and that's enough to keep me entertained for a little bit.

definitely does need something to fix hulu, and any other web tv. just keeps stuttering.

finally, battery life. 2 hours goes by a lot faster than it used to. and i don't want some extra crap sticking out. figure out a way to keep it thin and light and bump up to longer life. it's a netbook, all netbooks by default should have at least 4 to 6 hours of battery life, in my opinion.

cj, sony ericsson called uiq dead, and uiq laid off all it's employees... i highly doubt this will run uiq at this point.

*quietly closes the back cover*

shhh... don't give it any ideas!

finally, someone realises this was already announced with the original hp mini 1000.. thank you!

sony ericsson only makes gsm phones, since their primary market is scandinavia (and europe in general)

(yes, i know, they make phones for japan too, but those are totally different phones that you never ever see anywhere else in the sony ericsson line-up)

it looks thin... like, un-nokia like thin.now, if they can an s60 slider this thin...
