Refactor!™ for Visual Basic® .NET 2005 v2.1.2

I received an email from Developer Express today letting me know that they’ve released a new version of their Refactor! Pro tool for Visual Studio.

I’ve been using their free version since Visual Studio 2005 was released, and while it doesn’t get a mention in the email or on their general product versions page, they have released a new version of the free product too.

Definitely recommended for Visual Basic developers.

HP iPAQ rw6828 ROM Update

HP have released firmware update 1.01.03 for the rw6828.

I’ll be interested to see if this fixed the annoying “feature” where the wireless card spontaneously turns itself on - a great way to shorten the battery life.

Update: This update refuses to install via my Vista machine. I’ll try it at home on the WinXP box to see if it is happier. I had a small panic until I read the readme.txt file which said if the upgrade fails, just pull the battery out and restart it - phew!
