Final Update: Palm did replace my Pre by sending a brand new one via UPS within a week of me sending in the pictures – pretty impressive. Their tech support was pretty good too, they are based in Argentina but they were good at their English and friendly. The new phone is fantastic and version 1.3.1 of WebOS is great. The fact that it runs Linux and has a freely-installable Terminal app and a wicked dev community is a nice bonus too

Will O2 replace my defective Pre? [No, but Palm did.]
Monday, November 9th, 2009Welcome to my blog
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009Hi everyone,
Having just finished the massive Martin & Co project I’ve decided to stop taking on new freelance work. Since I’m now only working 3 days a week at Simpleweb here in Bristol I’ve now got two weekdays per week off
I decided to use my first free day to build this blog — the photo above I took myself last night at the top of the hill in St Werbughs, and the design I threw together today based around the photo. Do let me know what you think in the comments!
I’m looking forward to having more time to relax — I’m planning on taking a lot more photos and writing more, as well as working on the web cluster project which you’ll hear a lot more about here. I’ll also use this space to blog about some of my improvements to the Zend Framework which we’re using at work… I might even post some music as well.
Right now I’m watching a pretty good BBC documentary about Black Holes, it’s gone a bit “ooh quantum weird” with wobbly music on me, but most impressively it has a fantastic soundtrack by Tunng, if you’ve not listened to them before then check them out.
Anyway enough rambling, hopefully will submit my first “techy” post from work tomorrow if I have a bit of spare time!
Cheers, Luke
