In a YouTube video posted by “WindowsPhone”, Microsoft claims that the mobile phone industry has hit a wall, and that each new smartphone that is released is only slightly better than the one before it. While this is being said, they show tons of smartphones including the...

Microsoft Should Buy RI...

Interesting article from All Things Digital’s Kara Swisher. I don’t think Microsoft is capable of creating a mobile operating system that can compete with what’s out there, much less what WILL be out there in two years. They just don’t operate like that. Therefore,...

What would life be like without a cellular phone? Just consider that for a moment. You can’t make a call whenever you want. You can’t send a text message to anyone, or receive one. You can’t send or receive any email, either. Now consider that this extends in to your...

As an attendee of Microsoft’s 2009 PDC conference I received a free Acer laptop with a touch screen that swivels around so instead of using it like a “clamshell” type laptop, you can also use it like a big thick clipboard, writing and tapping on the screen to accomplish...

iPhone 3GS: I Should Pa...

I got an iPhone 3G almost a year ago and I got a two-year cell service contract with AT&T so I could get a deep discount. I’ve loved the phone, and will love it even more after I install the iPhone OS 3.0 software on it. Apple announced the iPhone 3GS at WWDC this week and some...

When I first saw The Mojave Experiment something struck me as odd. I couldn’t put my finger on it initially, but after pondering it for a while I realized that the whole concept is completely flawed. Rather than provide a narrative here of why this is such a misleading and botched...

Oh My!...

I preface this by saying that I did what most of my friends did. I followed the direct link to Apple’s web site to download what was supposedly the final version of the iPhone 2.0 firmware and I did the manual install. I did NOT do it the sanctioned way of going through iTunes. I...

The Art of Choice...

I saw a story on Digg that was a spoof on an iPhone commercial. The guy talked about spending $600 for the first model, then having the price get lowered by $200 in  almost no time (no mention of the $100 store credit that Apple gave all those customers, by the way). Then shelling out...

"Invitations"...

So let me ask you this. How am I supposed to add new people to this meeting in Outlook Web Access running on...

Vista’s telling me that no items matched my search (when, in fact, there are actually items that match what I was searching for, but hey – whadaya gonna do). Well if no items matched my search, why does Vista ask me if I found what I was looking for? Wouldn’t a better...
