Aug 23rd 2008 7:31AM also not available in the portuguese app store or, as they still put it 'portugese' app store...

so it's two things i don't understand: what's up with the apps and what's up with apple's spell checker ?

First Look: Pennies for iPhone {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}

Aug 7th 2008 2:29PM you cannot. you can edit the ones the have, but you must do it everytime you add something.

i'm using budget, which allows you to do that, and add your own.
i would love to love pennies, it's really beatifull, but i really do need more categories, and i would love to be able to separate lunch from dinner, or add cigarettes, or any other thing...

it's really a shame, because it's so close to being what i needed, but falls short.

budget, on the other hand, is not as pretty, but it will get the job done.

The MobileMe rollercoaster {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}

Jul 10th 2008 5:11PM i could get in two times during the day, only to be kicked out a couple minutes later.
syncing worked even when the site was down, and mail.app still works, as well as the ipod touch mail app.

i really wished me.com was working but, with .mac track record, i'm not even disappointed, it's just more of the same...

Eurovision song contest 2008: Former communist bloc taking all the fun out of the competition {Gadling}

May 26th 2008 6:53PM for as long as i remember this contest (i'm 37) my country, portugal, always gives one of the highest scores to spain, and spain gives it back to us. i guess it's a neighbor thing..

this year the same thing happened, and a new trend started showing up. there's a lot of eastern block immigrants on most european countries, and the voting was done by sms (on the old days there was an appointed judge on each country, made up of supposed experts and peers).

our bet is that a lot of them voted, hence the big votes from everyone...

and, i might add, the event is not music related for a long time and is regarded by a big slice of the population as some kind of kitsch joke that reminds us it that time of year again...
