Slow facts

You’ll have to excuse me for writing in the third person, but right now, I feel like doing that.

Magnus was born in Karlstad, Sweden. He is now a vicenarian, and has since moved to Linköping, Sweden. At first he moved there to study (computer science and engineering, to be precise), but he has since shifted away from academia (before getting a degree) and now works as a consultant at Dfind.

Magnus is a Humanist, and an atheist. He is therefore well aware that it is outrageously improbable that the universe was created by any form of divine entity, and that Darwinian evolution by natural selection is the only known way that life on earth could have evolved from its’ earliest forms to the myriad of species we know today.

Magnus is a Mac user. He loves his Macs and loathes Windows. He dislikes Linux, especially for desktop computers, although he uses it on one of his servers. He is a skilled programmer, especially when it comes to PHP and Objective-C/Cocoa, and uses TextMate as his editor. He also has an iPhone 3GS, and he loves it too.

Some of the people that Magnus looks up to are Steve Jobs, Richard Dawkins and John Hodgman.

    If I understand you correctly, you can’t sync iCal and Address Book with your P990i?

    If so, there are a few options. First of all, if you have the newest firmware for your phone, there are some hacked iSync plugins that some people has had success with. I’m sure you could find something with a Google search.

    Otherwise, you could still do Over-the-air syncing, however, you need a server and some special software to do that. I recommend Kerio Mailserver 6.
