KMail

I always got angry in KMail that i could not go through the list of emails with up- and down-keys. It always scrolled up/down in the email altough i wanted to scroll up/down in the list of emails.
Well, i accidentally found out that you can go through the list with the left- and right-keys :) I'm so glad now.

• left/right -> scroll the list of emails

• up/down ->scroll the email itself

It's great.

And it makes me feel a little dumb somehow...

Amarok kicks ass!

I've always been a fan of Amarok because of it's superior GUI and the nice statistics and features. Today I wanted to test it with my new iPod Photo - and I did not get disappionted :)

Mounting out of Amarok did not work, ok, not a big problem. Once i had the device mounted via the media:/-kioslave i could click "connect" in Amarok and it was ready to be filled with music. I could now just drag and drop the files or simply click "Transfer to device" in the context menu and it just works. It even transfers the covers that i downloaded from amazon so that they get displayed on the iPod.

I love Amarok.
