OK, so I am browsing the blogosphere and came across this; now Sprint is up to something else? The message boards have been burning up since this email came out early Wednesday evening. Word is Sprint is unveiling their new Unlimited Voice/data/MMS/SMS @ $70/month, but the voice is unlimited to only mobile phones….again this is [...]
What is “Wrong and Right” with College Football!
While this is not a sports site, nor one that normally writes about this kind of stuff, I had to make an exception. As a father, former college athlete, and fan I have to say that the beginning of the college football season has not given me that warm fuzzy feeling. Last years Oregon vs. Boise [...]
Review: BBScanner for BlackBerry Tour 9630
Roger that…10-4! OK, so my wife and I can sit for hours and watch cop shows…The First 48, Crime 360, Cops, Lockup, etc…and when I say hours I really mean all day! We spend a lot of time in Columbus, Ohio and like to know whats going on, mainly where is that police cruiser headed [...]
SmartSwipe Revolutionizes Online Shopping
So I have to admit my wife and I are “web-shopaholics” to the extreme. Most of the stuff we buy, outside of groceries we do online…I mean we have even gone as far as ordering pizza online! In our shopping there are two things that both of us very much dislike 1. having to enter [...]
Review: SplashMoney Personal Finance Manager for BlackBerry Smartphones
So fact of the matter is, I will never be confused with a CPA or give classes on money management. I have yet to look at my check book register since the lady at the bank wrote the beginning balance…that was almost 11 years ago when I was 18! Luckily I have a job that [...]
Trying to Get the Real “Deal or No Deal”
Approximately 3000 people, including the author, attended an open casting call in East Hanover, NJ for the daytime edition of “Deal or No Deal” Given the state of the world these days, sometimes one just has to venture outside their own comfort zone to try to get ahead. Case in point: I started writing this [...]
Review: FoxL Portable Bluetooth Speaker
The foxL is a portable speaker, about the size of two chocolate bars but considerably heftier. It comes in two versions – the plain old foxL, and the foxLmb with bluetooth connectivity. I’ve had the foxLmb for a while now, and I was wondering whether it was time for an upgrade. I went to the [...]
Scrapbook for dummies!
Review: Unibind MyBook 4×6 Photobook OK so I am a man, I am wired to take the photos and get them to my wife in some way shape or form. She does the scrap-booking because 1) she likes too and 2)I have no patience for making any type of photo book…way too cumbersome and it [...]
Where are you Dan?
Ok; so I know being with a CDMA carrier such as Sprint I have handicapped my insatiable need for new equipment, that is unless I am a Palm fanboy. But come on, enough is enough already…right? The guys over at Crackberry.com have posted this picture of two T-Mobile branded BlackBerry 8520′s(aka Gemini), yes the one [...]
Loading Windows 7 on an Acer Aspire One D150 is a snap – once you know the secret
My friend Mark contacted me via GTalk video chat three days ago to test out his new Acer Aspire One that he purchased for $349 at Costco. I was so impressed that he was able to connect and video chat without difficulty on a Netbook that cost so little that I immediately ordered one for [...]
OSX 10.5.7 Hits Software Update
So, I’m home sick (a very RARE occasion for me), and I’m bumming around with both my new Unibody MacBook (review still pending…) and my MSI Wind U100 running a triple boot configuration of Ubuntu 9.04 (very awesome, by the way…), Windows 7 RC1 (comments pending…) and OSX 10.5.6. I always check Software Update when [...]
Review: Shape Service’s Mobiola xPlayer
I tend to think of myself as an “on the go” type of guy with a sedentary lifestyle…not sure if that makes any sense to you but it does to me. I have some travel for work, coach high school baseball, volunteer with the local Board of Education, and have a 15-month old that we are [...]
