Incident crystal thingies!

( Thingies were in the mail today ... )

The LED bases that came with them suck though. One of them started emitting smoke instead of light so I had to quickly remove the batteries. Ordered different ones off ebay.

Still happy with my Nexus One ...

... Today I found myself needing some money quickly.
So I launched google maps, did a search for "Geldautomat" (i.e. ATM), clicked the closest one and started the navigation app.

Well, this only works because I'm using an unofficial version of google maps of course. The official one still has navigation locked for Germany because of some licensing issues with TeleAtlas. The unofficial one uses an english voice and speech file which sounds quite funny when it tries to pronounce german street names.

The ETA for official google navigation in Germany is Autumn, or so I've heard. We'll see, I guess.
