Physically grasping and moving a Griffin Powermate involves reconfiguring the way you're moving your hands and they can't be continuously spun as easily as the iPod wheel.
Just put your finger on top the thing and rotate. It's not that hard.
Ldaptor is a pure-python LDAP library and a collection of utilities and apps such as a web interface.
There's not much of the server side implemented yet -- only a dummy server that answers all search requests with "nothing found", but the protocol decoding etc. is all there.
Downsides: chihuahuas are pretty dang stupid, they bark alot and have bad eyesight, plus one just pooped in my bedroom.
No, no they are pretty dang smart; our two chihuahuas pick up things quickly, and do what I want even from small hints. For example: if I don't want them to enter the bathroom with me, I just snap my fingers in the direction of the door, and they leave. Same goes for barking -- don't blame the dog if you can't teach it.
As for eyesight, I can testify our chihuahuas watching birds over 50 meters away. They do have eyes that are prone to damage, though, and I think the older one could have degraded vision due to scratches in both of her eyes.
Pretty much all the dogs people keep as pets are "smart enough" to not appear dumb -- if you think you have a stupid dog, you should probably grab a few good books on dog psychology, learn to interpret your dogs gestures, and spend more time playing with your dog and teaching it. Nothing is worse for an active dog than a boring environment and people who only seem to notice it when it poops or barks.
Why don't you get the best features of dogs (smart, trainable, etc) and the small animals (cute, fits on your keyboard, not too heavy to have in your lap). Get a chihuahua.
Me & my gf got two chihuahuas called Nano and Pico (think metric, not editors). They fit nicely on a keyboard.

Been there done that.

You may want to use rdiff, from librsync at sourceforge, for that.
