The induction charging that Palm implemented in their phones is pretty awesome. But what about those of us who overclock our Pres and can't get by with the tiny battery that comes stock?

So my blog has gone through quite a few transitions.

Blogspot -> Wordpress -> Drupal 6 -> Drupal 7

Some were easy to transfer than others, but I must say I figured that doing a clean install of Drupal 7 and exporting my nodes from Drupal 6 was easier, but it wasn't very fun. Maybe it's because I'm no good at drush though...

Hope everyone who has commented in the past doesn't mind having all their comments gone.

The geniuses over at webos-internals have made it possible to get webOS 2.1 running on legacy devices like my Pre- running on Sprint!

So you were able to get your e-books to sync over Whispersync, but when you use it on your Android device or iPhone/iPod Touch, it downloads random cover art because you gave Amazon a fake ASIN number to search for...

Well, I have the solution:

Hey guys, if you've been following the Sideloading and Whispersync thread over at MobileRead.com, you've seen that there have been some cool new developments about getting your books (not purchased from Amazon) to sync across different devices.

I'm cleaning up my old blog, and transitioning to the new. So I've decided to update a few posts.

Backtrack 4 just released the final version, so I decided to break in my netbook.

From the comments that I received, it looks like people want me to do some book reviews.

I have not been able to read as much lately as I would like (school, work, Libby, and Xbox keep me pretty busy), but books are still one of my most favorite things in life.

I'm going to start off with a short list of books I've read in the last few months, then I'll list all the books that are on my list to read.

Another random hobby of mine is lockpicking. I love it because it goes hand in hand with hacking. Your just hacking the real world, lol.

So if you want to make your own lockpicks, I find it easiest if you already have a set that you can use as a model or template for your new and improved ones. I already have the Credit Card Lock Pick kit that you can find here. It's pretty much the best thing ever and you can take it wherever you go!

Well it's been a long battle, but I think I've finally lost...

We didn't know whether the firmware chip or the circuit board was bad on the DVD drive, so we soldered the firmware chip on another DVD drive we had lying around.
