GarnetVM, not a good start (sadly)

I've always been a PalmOS entusiast, I decided to leave it only when Nokia 770 was released. So, it's easy to understand how happy I was when I read about GVM. Being able to use Palm's apps on my Maemo IT could fill the gap for PIM applications.
Installing GVM was pretty smooth, and using Addressbook on my N800 gave me a shiver of pleasure along my back, bringing me back in time ;).

At that point I decided to install Iambic Agendus, perhaps the application I miss the most from the Palm times. Well, that wasn't a good choice, GVM crashed and refusing to start anymore. :(

I'm goint to remove the whole stuff and try a fresh install. We'll se.

RIAA? No thanks!

Jammie Thomas, 30-year-old single mother of two, has just be fined to pay $220.000 to Capitol Records, Sony, BMG Music Entertainment, Arista Records, Interscope Records, Warner Bros Records and UMG Recordings. She was accused of sharing 24 (twentyfour) songs copyrighted by those majors. This makes about $9.200 for every single song.

Won't comment it, just take your conclusions and remember it when you buy your next music CD...

Yes, sounds like this small sequence will show once again how useless, pointless are actual protection systems and DRM. Will they ever learn the lesson? Who knows...
