This may be it:

Mega Man is on a quest to restore peace in the world after Dr. Wily takes control of several robots in hopes to rule the planet. Completely re-designed for the PSP™ system with new bosses and puzzles to master, Mega Man Powered Up is the only action platformer that lets gamers create their own levels and share with friends.

Although I had been playing quite a bit of Untold Legends, the other 2 games I picked up (Prince of Persia and Death Jr.) haven't held my interest. This, however, should. A great blast from the past, this cartridge includes the original game and what is essentially the same game but with an all new engine that plays 2-D but is totally 3-D. It now has extra in-engine cinematics that help the story, and with full voice overs. Well done, Capcom, I expect many eager developers to get their MCP because of you...

The simplest way to create a glossary is to type your glossary by hand at the end of your document. Word has no built-in method of creating a glossary automatically, but you can use hyperlinks or the Table of Authorities functionality to create a glossary for one or more documents.

[ Microsoft Word Help FAQ. How to create a glossary in Microsoft Word ]

This article was certainly helpful. Why on earth is there no built-in glossary functionality in Word? What is in the bloat then?

Too cool.

Why do I feel like the US gets cheated when it comes to KitKats? And Pocky too, for that matter. We export our junk food, and Nestlé brings their junk food here. Why not more Japanese junk food?

Of course, even if we did get tons of it, this has very limited appeal since we don't celebrate the Cherry Blossoms in the US like it is in Japan. Even here in DC where we do celebrate our gift from Japan, it's mostly about cross cultural exchanges, and not the big deal that it is over there.

Why does this not seem like the same Pizza Hut that I've been to?

One of the new guys (but I didn't say who, Chris, so they won't know it's you...) has apparently not heard of Homestar Runner before. This made me think that there are a few sites out there that I thought everyone knew about, but apparently some people haven't heard yet.

1. A funny site (this is the Homestar Runner)
2. A site with some tech news (for Nar)
3. Some good links
4. #3 seemed to be a mirror, but there's a new site with a hierarchical approach
5. Or you can just search for stuff
6. Another funny site
7. A site with reviews of new electronics (and a sister site about cars)
8. What we all really need, just in case
9. Software listing on the web, no more need for archie
10. Satellite maps of your house
11. Language translations
12. Online shopping
13. Free books

And that's about it. They're always adding new sites to the Internet, so I'll try and post about them when I hear something...

UMPC nee Origami isn't anything new, but Microsoft and Intel want to weigh in. One thing that is new is some interfaces including this swell new touch-screen thumb-pad that Microsoft has licensed for the UMPC:

This, of course, means that I've spent too much, too soon on my PSP and my new phone, but that's the price to pay when you're a gadget freak like me, ne?

The Ultra-Mobile PC is portable, lightweight, and configured to connect on the go. It’s the device that you’ll always want with you.

[ Ultra-Mobile PC - Go Everywhere. Do Everything. ]

Though, perhaps I'm not getting it. It sounds like a tablet PC. Is it better? Cheaper? Or is this a super-big WinCE device that finally has some power, a real OS, full connectivity? Perhaps it's just the time to hit a striking point between the 2. A sort of "life drive" killer...

The big question, of course, is how much money will I be spending to buy one... ;-)

I ♥ GameFly. And now they're giving me deeper discounts, and $20 a year in stuff:

I'll rush back to my desk now, so I can handle the flood of resumes.

Total Commander is a File Manager, FTP, Registry Editor, LAN browser, all-in-one app for your Windows Mobile device. The price is right (free) and it appears to be happy to run off of a expansion card.

As always, use caution when hacking that registry!

Simply place .mp3, .wma (including DRM WMA!), or .midi files in the root folder of your "Storage Card" and they will be available as a ringtone for your phone!

Everyone is on the "bluetooth handsfree wagon", it seems. Motorola, Logitech, Jabra, Fischer Price... But which one to get. So far this looks the best to me, but how can I be certain?

• No additional phone dongle needed to enjoy 10 meters (30 feet) of range. It also works with your Bluetooth-compatible PC. And Bluetooth v1.2 gives you adaptive frequency hopping, quick connect time, and improved audio quality.
• WindStop technology enables clear conversations in adverse conditions by reducing the disruptive effects of wind noise, including automobile air conditioners.
• Rotating clip conveniently fits either ear, and lightweight soft foam ear pad stays comfortable even after long talk sessions.
• Enjoy up to 7 hours of talk time or up to 250 hours of standby time between charges.
• Call/answer button on the headset lets you conduct calls without having to pick up the phone. The Logitech Mobile Freedom Headset also supports several features built into many handsets, such as voice dialing, three-way calling, and m

Anyone have any opinions on the subject?

It's no secret that the Windows Mobile today screen is a bit weak. I've tried 1/2 a dozen things before, but never this one. It looks pretty cool:

The better memory/application handling built into this makes it a no-brainer at $9.99:

And it has a light skinning engine to boot! So my Microsoft device can look like an Apple... (or Red Hat if I can find that skin...)

It will be interesting to see how much of CRM this client supports.

I'm most interested in "cases", which I've heard much about, and we may be using to support a trouble ticket like system.

How is this an add on?

With Microsoft Global Contact Access, you can use Pocket Outlook on your Windows Mobile powered Smartphone or Pocket PC Phone Edition to look up contacts in the Global Address List (GAL) on your corporate Exchange server.

Optional I can see, but it's called Pocket Outlook, not Pocket Mail. I guess I should be happy that it exists at all.
