April 16th Update: I’ve added some bug reports related to Evolution contacts at the bottom of the post May 13th Update: Still no Google Contacts (except for small addressbooks) on 11.04 More here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-data-server/+bug/755043 Last week the Ubuntu Beta 1 was released. The first beta is typically when I jump on board. This [...]  April 7th, 2011:Added some useful links and clarified that LiON full discharge is not good for LiON battery life. June 30th, 2011: Added a good link with similar observations from the N1 Cyanogen Forums. Every post I have read on Nexus One battery maintenance leaves out one important step, that I believe is an [...] As of right now, you can use your Google, Facebook, and Yahoo accounts (or any other OpenID provider account) to post comments on ianbmacdonald.com.
