Evernote for Linux!!

Like Evernote for Windows(bah!), Android, Blackberry, iPhone, or Mac? Been running it in Wine for Linux? I just found a decent version for Linux called Nevernote. By all appearances it’s just like the actual client minus a few of the visual features (e.g. icon view of notes).

Froyo 2.2 for Motorola Droid Update.

I’ve been watching all the hype about Verizon updating it’s line of MotoDroid phones and getting annoyed about having to wait. Officially now, it’s been rolling out but they are projecting Aug. 18th for completing the roll-out. It’s an open phone, why can’t I update it myself? Well, I didn’t like the prospect of “bricking” it and having to shell out money for a new one. That said, I stumbled on this post from Phandroid and couldn’t help myself. I am now a Froyo user in just over 10 minutes. Easy, easy, easy!
