OK, take the following with a huge chunk of salt, as I'm hesitant to post this, and internet armchair diagnoses seem to be so often wildly incorrect, but I'll let you decide: have you considered that you might have mild ADHD? This isn't necessarily obvious: a family friend's granddaughter wasn't diagnosed until she…

All bets are off once Trillian 6 is released.

This will be interesting. My AIM login is my gmail address.

lol, that's so perfect.

You should have gotten him a mac, since you seem to have one (there's a mac keyboard in your pic). Perhaps your puppy was sending him a message? :-)

@Rachael Atwood Om nom nom nom. Chewy puppy.

Google sync still doesn't work with multiple contact groups, or even with Outlook (no, the outlook plugin doesn't count).

Hehe, you really should have taken pics. They would have been hilarious, too.

Sonic.net. They're not the cheapest, but (IMO) they're among the most technically competent. They're often listed at or near the top of regional ISP ratings on broadbandreports: [www.broadbandreports.com]

Back in March, my local (to California) ISP actually sent out an email message saying that they have no plans to impose any usage caps. Woohoo.

Heh, In-N-Out 3x0 protein burgers, yum!

Also note that the $18.49 price appears to be for a "MOQ" (minimum order quantity?" of 50. Bleh.

No, henpecked husband

+999 The modder appears to be using a BL-5C Lithium Ion battery, which supposedly has a capacity of around 850 mAH. rofl

@das7002 That's true, but only if it's going to be sitting around, unused and disconnected. As Jonathan says, the application here is for a mouse that is used every day.

Your old crappy cellphones probably have batteries with a small capacity. In all probability, decent AA rechargeables will have a much larger power capacity (i.e., can last much longer).

You're better off using the rechargeable AA and AAA batteries. The Sanyo Eneloops are good, but they're not the only ones. However, keep in mind that rechargeables tend to degrade over time (usage); they'll probably have lost a significant amount of capacity after a year or two.

What's hilarious is that he replaced his AA batteries with an 850mAH lithium ion battery.
