Finally figured out how to configure SIP on Symbian^3 based phones. Despite registering a SIP profile, the phone wouldn't recognize it as valid. The secret sauce was a SIS that needed to be installed:

My N900 usually cannot go a business day (we'll say 9 hours) on a charge; but I've had the SIM out and it's been on WiFi only for the last 9 hours and barely touched its reserves.

It's a bit amazing simply how much of a drain UMTS is, even in a city.

matt [wronka.org]/Merch
However, given the surprising difference, I wouldn't be surprised if something else was going wrong ither with the mobile towers or N900 itself.

It is a bit odd that mobile (GSM) phones are smaller than SIP (WiFi) phones.

It does not seem to support subjects on messages, but does let you route to a specified resource and even supportr remote control.

Apparently I was wrong, and the "value plans" are contracted, but priced similarly to the Even More Plus ("EM+") plans. Something that I learned about the EM+ plans is that apparently most people got them while financing a phone from T-Mobile, where the consumer would put down a subsidized price and then pay off the remainder in monthly increments. This is the part that was exploited to the point that T-Mobile needed to cancel the plan.
[09:34:09]
matt [wronka.org]/Psi.generay
The whole thing sounds odd, and it sounds as if T-Mobile were trying to find a way of having a non-contract plan while still tying the consumer to T-Mobile via the monthly payments on the phone. The whole thing sounds more complicated than just having a non-contract plan divorced entirely of the phone provision.

Cause and Effect: T-Mobile USA and AT&T
[23:55:31] matt [wronka.org]/Psi.generay a) AT&T makes a bit for T-Mobile USA
b) T-Mobile hides, and then removes their no-contract monthly plans
c) AT&T's bid falls through after concerns about competition
d) T-Mobile now has monthly non-contract "Value Plans" available on their Web site.

Aastra to Asterisk
[15:10:29] matt [wronka.org]/Trip After telling myself it couldn't possibly be a codec negotiation issue, prox brought up the possibility as the only thing of which he could think would cause my audio issues on outgoing calls. It turns out he was right, and I should have looked further into it originally:

Google Alerts
[09:38:33] matt [wronka.org]/Trip Many people may not be aware that I actually use Google for its 'Alerts' feature, which is pretty useful. As Google looks around the Web, if they find something that matches terms you have registered, it will send you an eMail.
I get a lot from various news sources. What I really want is to hit reply and correct them. Maybe that will be in version 2.

Compiz Settings Manager (ccsm) and Priority/Control issue
[22:39:39] matt [wronka.org]/Psi.generay We got new development boxes at work, so I set-up a fresh install of Debian testing. It seems like there's a bug in ccsm which prevents a user from adding the control key to any key combination. Instead it reads as "priority" which doesn't do a darn thing, and in fact doesn't get saved as part of the key stroke.
The work around is to edit the compiz config file (which is probably $HOME/.config/compiz/compizconfig/Default.ini) and add "<Control>" to any key combinations directly.

I've switched to rejecting all external mail from hosts that do not publish SPF records. This is mostly because of the number of forged Yahoo! messages I have been getting as of late, and also because the vast majority of desired mail is already compliant.

The Economist Renewal Offers
[18:50:14] matt [wronka.org]/Psi.generay I received two different eMail offers from the Economist for an early Renewal offer (I have at least one more year on my subscription). One for 80% off, $69 a year; the second for 85% off, or $51 a year.
Ordering magazines is oddly reminiscent of buying trinkets on holiday.
