Fisher Price Hell

[All & Sundry] I call this the Corn Baller, because I can’t help it, and I’ve been watching a LOT of Arrested Development lately. It seemed like such a cute toy idea for his first birthday. And it is cute, sort of. At first. I mean, until he’s been pushing it for longer than 2.3 seconds, after which time the BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG of those balls “popping” kind of, ha ha, makes you feel like you’re going craaaaAAAAAZY.
Ha! I can sooooooo relate to that. And yes, the Fisher Price (Inappropriate Contact) dog is as equally as frightening.
Ah, the joys of parenthood.

I don’t know how to publicly post random thoughts and opinions - so I figured that I would just add it to one of your random postings.
PLEASE CREATE A NEW RSS READER AND MANAGER FOR POCKETPC (WM5) DEVICES. YOUR OLD ONE IS JUST THAT - OLD. PLEASE CREATE SOMETHING VERY COOL LOOKING AND SOMETHING THAT WORKS AWESOME. WE ALL KNOW YOU ARE A MAC GUY SO USE SOME OF YOUR SKILLS IN MAC UX AND CREATE A NEW READER FOR THE PPC/WM5 PLATFORM.
CAN YOU TRY TO WRITE SOMETHING THIS WEEKEND? I WILL GIVE YOU TWO WEEKS. I HOPE YOU CAN POST A BETA SOON.
THANKS.

Dear Kenny,
Install Visual Studio 2005 and the various Windows Mobile SDKs. The source code for PocketFeed is free to download, and, if you know C++ and/or Win32 programming, you should have no problem at all adding all sorts of coolness to it.
Have fun with it.

Do I have to install Visual Studio 2005 Team Server Edition? How do I sync and build and put the code back in the community? Have your created a Team Server Depot?
I just looked online and VS2005TS is well over $2000.00…
Can you put it on SourceForge? Please don’t put it on CodePlex, apparently I need VS2005TS for that too…
