WPF vs Winforms
I found I like Winforms Programming more. I felt that is easy to use. I can use TableLayoutPanel to create a complex UI. I know Grid in WPF can do a similar job, but I still think TableLayoutPanel is easier. Maybe, that is because I have been using WinForms for that many years! Moreover, I have experienced WinForms Application is faster. Thus, I like Winforms more.
Even Iconia upgraded to 3.1, USB Ethernet Dock is still not working
I bought an USB Ethernet Dock for my Acer Iconia A500 around a two months ago. I can't get it working. Two weeks before, I got it upgraded to Android 3.1. I know Android got better supports in USB devices. Thus, there was some hopes to get USB Ethernet Dock working. Finally, my hope is vanished. That is not working!!!
Skype for Linux
I found there is a Linux version of Skype. Although that is still a beta version, the functions are quite completed. I can use SkypeIn, SkypeOut, sending SMS and some normal functions, such as message and voice chat. There is only one weakness. UI is not as nice as the Windows Version

Acer Iconia A500 is upgraded to Android 3.1
My Android Tablet, Acer Iconia A500, got an update package this morning. Now, it became to Android 3.1. That sounds running more smooth......, I know it has more enhancements, such as re-sizable widget... I will try them later.
Eclipse vs NetBeans
Most of friends are good at Java recommended Eclipse to me as my main IDE for Java. There are a lot of plug-ins, such as spring IDE. But I still feel more comfortable to use NetBeans. Because I spent some time using Netbeans many may years ago. Morover, I felt NetBeans is more similar with Visual Studio, that seems to be more C# programmer Friendly. As a C# programmer, so I choose it. Besides, Netbeans support Spring MVC3 and Hibernate which are the frameworks I need to use. It can fulfill what I need. Thus, NetBeans is my choice!
