As I wrote some time ago I didn't planned to change or update by
workflow nor my tools. But plans are usually not related to the
reality. My Punkt MP01 ceased to work and I also have got the MNT
Reform 2 laptop (which I thought it never arrive).
Also my Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Editon is no longer included among the
supported devices of the UBPorts. So its Ubuntu Touch OS is not going
to be updated any more.
So how these thing changed my workflow?
My main equipment is now:
- Palm Centro as a phone
- Blackbird (the POWER9 workstation) as my main workstation
- MNT Reform 2 as a supplementary workstation and tablet replacement
- GPD Pocket 1 as a laptop
- SGI O2 as a "legacy UNIX workstation"
I of course still use my PSION Organiser II but mostly as an alarm
clock and the Palm III and clones to store some data (and to take
images with the PalmPix).
I moved some activities form the GPD to the MNT, for example the
Arduino IDE is now on the MNT I can program my Inkplates from here. I
didn't tried to use the MNT to sync the PalmsI still use the Blackbird
for this) or PSIONs (especially the MC600 which still sync with the
O2), yet.
I still use the Blackbird for heavier computing tasks because the GPD
don't have enough RAM nor speed (and the MNT has about just half of
both these things).
A much more interesting is te fact that I almost ceased to use my
tablet. The MNT can do the same but in much more comfortable way
(partly because it was a keyboard and a trackball and partly because it
runs normal desktop apps). I always thought that tablets are not for me
so this is probably a confirmation..
Software-wise, I have returned to more intensive use of the Remind [1]
program. It also seems that I more often use console-based versions of
some programs that their GUI counterparts (the Vim instead of the Gvim
and so).
