# Received the Tungsten C
### Entered in CardTXT on Tungsten C
### 20190907

So I had received a Tunsten C last week
and it had a deadspot on the touch screen
as well as keyboard issues. The seller
agreed to replace it with a different unit.
So I mailed it back and they sent another.
I am glad I did.

This one is perfect. The only minor defect
being a small crack near the power connector.
I may epoxy that as a preventive measure.

In preparation for this, I updated the 
[gopher proxy][1] on my sdf webspace
to enable binary downloads and images.
Note: yes my robots.txt is deny all! The 
reason for the proxy now is two fold: 

1. In EudoraWeb, gopher thru a proxy
  is so much nicer than PVTerm.
2. I have _a lot_ of Palm OS software
  on RPoD and I can OTA install it via
  the proxy straight from gopher instead
  of enabing ftp on RPoD. Using the
  default browser is best for this.

Fonts4OS5 is a nice app indeed. I think I
will install it on my UX50 as well. I am
typing this in Times New Roman. It look
nicer than the default font. I wish it had
a good (read: any) monospace font though.

Of course I have my beloved LauncherX
installed. Patched now, but I did actually
purchase it when it came out. Also, in an
uncharacteristic move, I loaded up a bunch
of Astraware games. I had paid for a few 
of those too... but never played Bejewled 2
in hi-res till tonight. Holy shit! Blows the
older version away.

I still have a case coming from Australia. I 
have no idea when that'll get here. I also
ordered two chrome OEM styluses becaue
my Tungsten W and the original Tungsten C
came to me with plastic ones. However,
this T|C has a chrome stylus already.
