I went on a small ride to Ocala this weekend. Having the GPS in my tank bag?s map sleeve just didn?t work. Glare and shifting GPS made it difficult and even dangerous. Couldn?t see squat. So I bit the bullet and bought a RAM-Mount set for it. $54, not bad. Maybe a little shipping will be added when they process my order. Worth it. Trying to even just read the GPS inside my tank bag map sleeve while I?m riding is not safe.
I want a Toyota iQ.
About an hour ago, a Reddit article introduced me to the Toyota iQ, an attractive looking ?four? passenger car with great gas mileage (59/51). I want it with a six-speed transmission and the four-cylinder diesel engine. It?s not yet available in the U.S.
Uniden DECT 2060-2 cordless phone
Just picked up a Uniden DECT 2060-2 at OfficeMax for $59.99 today. Two handsets, no answering machine.
First defect: As mentioned in this Amazon.com review, address book entry names don?t override the incoming caller ID strings. Damn times three. Really crappy, Uniden.
Second defect: It was not possible (or not easy to understand how) to preview a ringtone when defining a custom ringtone while adding someone to the address book. Same problem when just defining the handset?s default ringtone. How do I preview these?
