I’m typing this entry from my new iPad using the WordPress app. I use a PC laptop for work. My casual-use MacBook is just shy of 3 years old and won’t be replaced. I have an iMac too that I used to use for my work at FightCRC that is about two years old. Like many, [...]

My last word on Android
Well, probably not my last word ever, but at least the last on this chapter. I now have an iPhone 4S and my Infuse is being used by a family member who will better appreciate it. It’s a long story, but I managed to do some switcheroo’ing with the phones on my family plan in [...]

Goodbye iPhone – First 24 hours of Android
That didn’t take long. I posted yesterday that I was thinking of making the switch from iPhone to Android. I did my research and that’s exactly the direction I went a few hours later.

Help me decide: Is it time for this iPhone user to go Android?
My 2 year-old iPhone 3GS has about had it. It’s painfully slow despite a few full restores and I’ve been having a lot of volume/speaker issues. The speaker will just stop working at random times. And when listening with headphones, any headphones, the left side is clearly much louder than the right. I’m eligible for [...]

That means that even though an application is still not allowed to run in the background, it can periodically call home for information and display a message and/or badge to let you know of changes.

iPhone owners: Anyone solved the multi-Mac dilemma?
When I’m home, I sync my iPhone with my iMac, and life is good. But when I’m traveling, I only have my MacBook Pro with me. I use Spanning Sync to keep iCal and Address Book on the laptop in sync with iCal and Address Book on the Mac (and in sync with Google Calendar [...]

Salesforce for the iPhone: Not ready for prime time
I was thrilled when I saw a Salesforce application in the new Apple iPhone app store. It was one of the first applications I downloaded. Unfortunately, it doesn’t nearly live up to expectation. In fact, it’s a disappointment. First, you have to understand that Salesforce Mobile is a separate license. Once you pay the extra [...]

Maybe the Blackberry 9000 doesn't want to be an iPhone killer
I’m beginning to drool over the upcoming Blackberry 9000, now that it seems to be a reality. It has everything I already love about my Blackberry 8800, plus wifi, a faster network and a camera. I know that rumors also say iPhone is due for an upgrade later this year to AT&T’s faster 3G network. [...]
