When I bought my HTC Hero I was both impressed and disappointed. Yes it was the best phone I'd even owned but as it was running Android 1.5 it didn't do some of the whizzy things that I'd read about; things like Turn-By-Turn Navigation, Speech to Text etc.

Like most Ubuntu 'geeks' I have a box running the Server edition, just to play around on - mine is in the garage and performs some of the mundane tasks I've blogged about in the past, e.g. updating my OpenDNS and DynDNS settings when my external IP address changes and pinging the kids computers so I know when time the 'really' shut down last night.

I've run with Vista for about a year now and on the whole have had no problems with it. Now I'm one of those people that hasn't really had any problems with Vista - and frankly I'm not sure what all the fuss was about. Yeah, I was happy with XP and only upgraded to Vista because my new employer was using it.

When it comes to upgrading Operating Systems I'm not known as an early adopter, I normally wait a while for others to have the headache of encountering and resolving problems. However, in a moment of madness I decided to upgrade my fully functional Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) installation to 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope).
