| Your Seduction Style: Ideal Lover |
You seduce people by tapping into their dreams and desires. And because of this sensitivity, you can be the ideal lover for anyone you seek. You are a shapeshifter – bringing romance, adventure, spirituality to relationships. It all depends on who your [sic] with, and what their vision of a perfect relationship is. |
Went to UE’s site to check out the super.fi 5Pro cans again… I must admit these accessories look very nice, Sensaphonics needs to hire a better photographer and Photoshop guru…
This reminds me, I should take some better pics of my 2X-S and post them…
These pics were pretty impressive though, I must say. Maybe I’ll wait til I pick up the new EF-S 60/2.8…
Back to the super.fi 5Pro, I’ve heard rumors that it’s basically a UE-5c with a universal fit (vs custom mold)… My friend Steve (aka lindrone) has the UE-5c, the UE-10 Pro, and Sensaphonics 2X-S (he likes the Sensa’s the best of course heh), he said the UE-5c’s sound worse than the new Shure E4c, so if that’s the case, the super.fi 5Pro should sound even worse without the custom mold isolation… I can see a flame war starting at HeadFi all over again like the 10Pro vs Sensa debate… “My super.fi got TWO drivers and your E4’s only got one! Therefore it must sound better”… Hmm… maybe it will even have a flat curve!! LOL!
Enjoy!

Saw this from Eugene’s blog… Another blog to subscribe in my RSS readers…
Head-Fi (Headphone Hi-Fi and Portable Audio) – New canalphones from Ultimate Ears!
More than 10 pages of discussions at Head-Fi… 🙂 I wonder if anybody brought up Sensaphonics in that thread, LOL…
Interesting, dual-driver, quite a bit cheaper than the Shure E5’s…
Pocketfactory: Review: PalmOne LifeDrive
This guy is right on:
So why place this product into its own unique category? Two reasons, simply:A. Marketing spin. This is a great new product that has features not found on any competing product on the market today. So, why not flaunt that fact in the face of consumers and corporate customers by positioning LifeDrive as something other than a handheld, even though it?s really not. Placing it in the same category with Tungstens and Zires would give the subconscious (and unfair) impression that it?s just another handheld.
B. Declining PDA sales. With ?traditional? (read: disconnected) PDA sales declining, PalmOne wants to do whatever it takes not to associate this product with a declining product segment. And what better way to do that than to NOT call it PDA?
Giving LifeDrive a category space all its own allows PalmOne to dodge two bullets at the same time, and perhaps give this product a chance to experience real success and acceptance in the market place. Will that strategy pay off? Time will tell.
I agree that something like the LifeDrive in the Treo form factor would be a killer, I for one want more internal memory (like 4GB is about right!! and more RAM!!) for my Treo, faster processor, etc etc…
What LifeDrive is not
Those of you who were expecting LifeDrive to be some miracle multimedia wonder device or iPod killer are in for a disappointment. Whatever this product?s intended purpose, it most certainly is not in the same class with iPods or Portable Media Center devices, and is in no way marketed as such. It lacks the software and capabilities to fill that role, and I see no indication PalmOne ever intended LifeDrive for that purpose, other than to enable the user to take some of their content with them on the go. It replaces your PDA, not your iPod. In fact, it?s more accurate to say that, if anything, LifeDrive competes with Laptops more than any other type of device.
Random thoughts
Personally, I feel that PalmOne should have integrated this wonderful technology into a new Smartphone product rather than a traditional PDA. Combining massive storage and on the go content access with Treo?s Smartphone savvy would make for a killer combination.
Saw this at Trevor’s blog, so went and got my results… LOL!

So I ordered a few books for work, they came in 3 different shipments, and one of them (the shipment that contained Head First Design Pattern and XSLT and XPath On The Edge, Unlimited Edition) apparently got lost. It was sent via USPS and tracking info indicates that it was delivered last Thursday at my office, but nobody at my office has seen the package.
So I contacted Amazon with their online contact form and got a reply in a couple of hours:
Subject: Your Amazon.com Order (#xxxxxxxxx)
From: “Amazon.com Customer Service”
To: ayn
I am sorry that you have not received this order; it appears the package may be lost. Please accept our sincere apologies for this inconvenience.I have placed a new order for the items. There will be no charge for this replacement. Here are the details of the new order……
Pretty good! I should really join Amazon Prime so my free-shipping items will be delivered via Fedex instead of USPS, they’re much more reliable when shipping to a business address.
