LOL your computer desktop must be a mess :p

Actually I'm the opposite when it comes to desktops. I'm a minimalist :p

I just think Categories and Folders (in 4.0) look ugly, even if it's a great idea. Besides, people put some good effort into creating these icons, I don't think they deserve to be hidden away. I just need to delete apps more often lol.

Haha. I guess so. TBH I find any icons that are based on the default "square" look to be absolutely hideous. I don't know why so many iPhone themers (especially over on macthemes) insist on it. I'd love to see more people make regular icon themes from scratch on the iPhone. As it is, I'm just happy to use the Oxygen theme from KDE, lol.

My Nexus 1 running FroYo (and downloading Flash) :D

is there a free android app to take screen captures for a unrooted phone? every app I have found is only for rooted versions.

The ddms tool in the sdk lets you take screenshots on non-rooted phones. It doesn't seem to work with my 2.2 device but the ddms plug in in Eclipse does the trick.

I can't figure out how to get into it with the android sdk. Since i updated to 2.1, none of the walkthroughs match up correctly lol. using sprint htc hero

?

The new HTC Battery Widget. If you have a HTC phone, when you go into widgets, at the top there is the selection for "Get more HTC widgets".

I have folders for different media using Categories.. Which btw will still be better than the default 4.0 folders if apple keeps it as is in the beta.

Yeah, doesn't the 4.0 OS limit the amount of icons you can have per folder? WHY?!?! I don't know why Apple insist on putting stupid, pointless restrictions on the OS. Categories FTW!!!

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
