Something happened to my cell phone account at Sprint today. I can’t dial out and people that call me get an error message and can’t leave a message, but the data and BlackBerry service work just fine. *sigh* If you need to reach me by phone, use my work number. If you need my work…

My customers are getting restless waiting for the new releases of Tasks Pro™ and Tasks – I don’t blame them, it’s months past the my original planned release date. The good news is that things are very close now. I gave up on my work data recovery last week and I’m pretty much done re-doing…

I wasn’t planning to do an iPhone post, but clearly folks want to talk to me about it. I’ve had no fewer than 15 IMs, 2 phone calls and even an e-mail from my folks asking what I think about it. 🙂 I read the live keynote coverage on MacNN, then I watched the keynote…

I was surprised that today’s keynote didn’t include much of anything about Leopard or revisions to the Mac line. Are more announcements expected before the end of the Expo? iPhone – I’ll be curious to check it out, but probably won’t switch to Cingular for it. AppleTV – I’m much more likely to jump onboard…

This is interesting to me primarily because Mark/Space has a great reputation for doing sync well. Too bad they didn’t release it before the free PocketMac 4 came out with so many improvements. Right now this only seems to really benefit Pearl users because of the audio/photo capabilities. When the BlackBerry 8800 finally arrives, I’d imagine PocketMac will be updated to include many of these capabilities as well.

I tried the Logitech S 530, the Kensington SlimType and the MacAlly IceKey, but none of them felt as good as my Kensington StudioBoard. Unfortunately, the KSB is misbehaving rather badly, with keys sticking and key combinations not working. I contacted Kensington support, and they are sending out a SlimType as a replacement. I’m not…

Nice little reminder app – useful for “let the dog inside in 15 minutes” type reminders. I donated and sent in a couple of refinement requests.

Summary I took my drives to Reynolds back on Dec. 1, 2006. Since then they basically ignored me. I’ve been updating the timeline in my original post to reflect the (lack of) progress I was making in getting any kind of response from them. On Thursday last week, I decided to try driving up to…

I’ve been using OpenDNS for a number of months now, and I am a fan. My favorite features: Faster DNS response than my ISP means pages load faster. Typo correction – my .vom and .xom typos automagically get turned into .com for me. They take an ‘as little as needed’ approach to asking for information…

I used Safari as my primary browser for a little over a week. Disclaimer: I was not a fan of Safari before this and have used Chimera/Camino as my primary browser for several years. This post has my notes from the experience. The transition to Safari was pretty easy. LaunchBar already indexes my bookmarks, so…

Besides obviously agreeing with this, I thought I’d give a recent real-world example and kudos to RIMarkable for switching to full-content feeds.
I’d actually unsubscribed from the RIMarkable feed because it was excerpt only (and e-mailed them to tell them why), because other BlackBerry blog sites did offer full content feeds. When RIMarkable switched to full content, Robb took the time to reply to my mail and let me know they had done so – I promptly re-subscribed.

New release, if you use WordPress, it’s time to upgrade.

Twice a year, Steve Jobs takes the stage extending his reality distortion field over the masses. These events are really celebrated holidays for Mac fanatics all over the world.
Too funny. 🙂

My cousin Ryan is crashing with us tonight on his way back to grad school in Ohio. Much like last time, we had a great time staying up too late diddling around on a couple of guitars. Also much like last time, I discovered I have zero calluses on my fretting hand these days. I…
