spent a week (well 9 days) at tyhe family mökki.
Totally relaxing. After three days of totally amazing days (blue skys and +26 C), and really amazing sunsets, like below
Fist day, did a bit of sawing logs, etc. Next three days spent sleeping on the swing bench. did somemore sawing and chopping of logs. Final day was spen collecting mushrooms.

New Gadget
gave in last thursday and got a new Gadget.
Had been looking at this since i saw it on engadget, and living in Finland (home of Nokia), managed to get one early :) Apparently they are selling like "things that sell really well"(TM)
Cool - GPS, full keyboard, 3MP camera (that can do VGA video as well), HUGE screen, reasonable size, things work as expected (a thing that is rarer with technology than you would think!)
Not so cool - i seem to have "done something" to the hinge already (does not click like it did when new), down on the cursor thingie is not as "crisp" as the other directions, does not seem to have a way to copy my outlook inbox.
and the MicroSD memory cards are F'ing tiny!!

how to turn off those annoying snap previews
visit here and click the javascript link, to change the state of a cookie
Note: it is a "toggle" type thingie so if you click it twice it will re-enable the annoying snap behaviour, grrr
Update (2008.03.01):
Ok, so they have moved the FAQ a bit, but then i found a solution for Opera (my normal browser). Copied here, just in case:

Here’s how to do it in Opera 9:
-Tools -> “Advanced” tab.
-Click on “Content” on the left.
-Click “Blocked Content” button.
-Add http://spa.snap.com/*
Done. Snap Preview begone!

Coke Zero - Slightly less sucky than DietCoke
Just got back from toys 4 boys, and Coke was giving away Coke Zero, general consensus was that this new Zero tasted slightly better than DietCoke, but not as good as normal Coke.
Other cool things i saw there;
E90 - unfortunalty things not working GPS & WLAN, but feels nice, size is good.
N800 - screen is nice, but not sure about the use case
Light sabers, the two geeks who were dressed as a Stormtrooper and Boba Fett.
Quad bike that had been "pimped"
Masarati Quatroporte, Ferarri 612
The Windows Smart phones, that did not suck as much as expected.
Overall, a good show, worth the price of admission. Lots of stands with cool gadgets and thinks there were nice to have.

good explanation of what is happening on the web NOW
found this on Craig Cmehil's site
Just watch it - you won't be disappointed.
Nothing new for me, but it was a really clear and simple explanation of a lot of concepts.
