Reassuringly Expensive

Archive for June, 2009

I love Jon Hicks’ Helvetireader theme for Google Reader especially as a Fluid app.

Joshua Brewer created a brilliant icon for use with Helvetireader and Fluid which I have used since day 1.

However of late the way the Hr icon sat with my other icons started to bug me; most dock icons are tilted over to the left but the Hr one was not.

So a few minutes in Photoshop and I have Helvetireader Fluid Icon Redux which sits a little better in my dock.

I know I said I was taking a break but there is a conclusion to the Psion netbook trademark fiasco that I felt I should publish for completeness.

It seems that Psion and Intel have reached an “amicable agreement” and that

Neither party accepted any liability. In light of this amicable agreement, Psion has agreed to waive all its rights against third parties in respect of past, current or future use of the ‘Netbook’ term.

I don’t know what deal was done, but I don’t feel that this rather grubby episode has done anything but tarnish Psion’s already diminishing reputation. Shame.
