Simplenote is probably a wonderful app (at least others think so) but I'm currently not amused, as the following screen shot demonstrates:

New notes are duplicated in the cloud somewhere. I suggest it is the Simplenote Web service, because duplication also happens when I use Notational Velocity (yeah, latest version) with synchronization to the Simplenote service [...]

In spite of several reboots, I couldn't get wireless LAN connected on the iPhone — something that had worked flawlessly until now.

Martin's GhettoPush, which I talked about recently is being heavily used here. So much, that I've implemented some changes, that Martin has kindly merged back into his master repository.

Prowl is a Growl-like client for the iPhone which accepts notifications from your computer (Mac, Windows) using push.
