Ohio Linuxfest 2008: The Community Gathers Once Again

It’s hard to believe that a year has gone by. A lot has happened in the Linux world. While the economy is in the crapper, Linux is growing in both the easy of use and the strength of its community.
Ubuntu was at the show this year and had machines from System 76 showing off Hardy and giving out CD’s. There were at least 5-6 different CD’s they were handing out in this booth alone. This includes, Ubuntu Desktop and Server in 32 and 64 bit versions. They also had Kubuntu in both 32 and 64 bit versions as well as a remix of Kubuntu with the shiney KDE 4 Desktop. That doesn’t cover the myriad of other Ubuntu based remixes out there. Ubuntu has firmly entrenched itself as THE Linux distro that is in everyone’s bag. … [visit site to read more]

The Sprint HTC Touch Diamond Review
The Sprint HTC Touch Diamond Review
You might remember that when I attended the Seattle Mobius in May, I was given the European version of the HTC Touch Diamond, which for network reasons I opted to have sent to Mitchell in Australia.

You might remember that when I attended the Seattle Mobius in May, I was given the European version of the HTC Touch Diamond, which for network reasons I opted to have sent to Mitchell in Australia. The Diamond version he received and reviewed was at first glance nearly identical to the Sprint version I’ll be covering today, with the exception of their back sides.
During his testing period, Mitchell found that he liked the small size of the device, the multitude of radios packed in that small package (HSDPA, WiFi, BT, GPS and FM), the sharpness of the 2.8″ VGA screen, and the 3.2 megapixel camera. Qualities which he found disappointing were the radio strength, the device’s sluggish response time when using the TouchFlo 3D interface, the battery life, the auto-screen rotation, and the faceted back which didn’t allow the device to lay flat.
Mitchell’s verdict was a reluctant Fail, and as he summarized, “I had very high hopes for the Diamond; I wanted it to wipe the smile off Apple’s face, and be a proper competitor to the unstoppable iPhone. But alas it isn’t. It has too many flaws to be a competitor, and to be honest it has too many flaws full stop.”
Can you blame me for not being too excited when it was later announced that Sprint would carry the US version?
However, with memories of the faster processor and updated ROM introduced by HTC when they released the US version of their Touch (versus its European cousin), I thought it might be worthwhile to revisit this particular device, to see if Mitchell’s complaints were still warranted.
Let’s see how the US version fared…
