Leaving AT&T for Sprint….something I never thought I’d do

So I recently moved away from the iPhone 3G to a Palm Pre, and as a result from AT&T to Sprint. This is something that I never thought would happen but the more time goes by the better I feel about it. To start with, AT&T's 3G service is a complete joke unless you're in the middle of nowhere and that place happens to have 3G service which are usually mutually exclusive. Why you ask? Because AT&T's n [...]

Trying to start posting on here again

Well it's been over a year since my last post so I figure it's about time I brushed off the cobwebs and started it up again. Testing out the iPhone WordPress app right now and it's OK. Stay tuned. [...]

Toshiba HD-DVD and Planet Earth (HD-DVD), what a great couple

So I know it might sound stupid to jump on the proverbial HD-format bandwagon since there really hasn't been a clear winner between HD DVD and Blu-Ray, I figured I might as well jump in. I went ahead and ordered a Toshiba HD-A2 HD DVD player from Amazon and of course the Planet Earth HD DVD set (original BBC series) to accompany it. I got the HD-A2 pretty quickly and it was very easy to setup via HDMI to my O [...]

It’s been a long time…

Holy cow, it's been a while since I posted last on the blog. I've been extremely busy (not really) with work and personal stuff...that and I'm also too lazy to keep this thing up to date. Since I don't have any ads on here I don't make any money so hence no incentive to keep it jammin' as they say. In any case, I've made myself a promise to try and at least write 2-3 posts a week starting today - my birthday - f [...]

Inactivity as a result of my wife being ill

Funny that the last post was all about getting back on top of things and posting more frequently but since then, sadly, my wife has been ill and we've spent most of our time focused on helping her get better. She just had surgery yesterday and she is doing better, hopefully she won't have any more problems as a result but the next few days will be part of the painful recovery she has to go through. In any case, [...]

Back with a vengeance and the Cingular 8125 Review

Well I think the last post on here was quite some time ago and I feel bad that I haven't had time to post anything new since then. I'm going to try my best to post frequently on here so to keep things flowing rather than being so stagnant. Work has been busy and I was in Houston for a couple of days but now I should be able to allocate some time to post on here. I've also posted a review of the Cingular 8125 (HT [...]

Blogging via Blackberry

I figured there had to be someone else out there who loved their Crackberry enough to want to be able to blog via email - send your post to a special email account and like magic, it shows up on the front page! Just wanted to test the feature out so I wrote this post on my Blackberry, although you can use any email capable device. Recently learnt it was known as "moblogging" - was hoping for something more c [...]

My first blog – ever

After hearing so much about the phenomenon that is weblogging, I decided to take the plunge and setup my own blog. Back a few years ago, I was intent on creating a fantastic website using static HTML - boy is that outdated now. In any case, I am in the early stages of setting up the site but my goal is to use this as a forum to discuss the thing that really interests me - technology. I intend on posting revie [...]
