Gamers tend to fall into two categories…PC gamers and console gamers. For the PC, it’s basically just that…games on the PC. Yes, there are games available for the Mac but serious gamers shun the Mac as a gaming platform. On the console side we’re all familiar with the battles between the Microsoft’s XBox, Sony’s Playstation, […]

Unless you’ve been living in a cave for the past two years you’ve undoubtedly heard of this iPhone thingy. Some computer company decides to make a phone. Mac fanboys everywhere have been speculating and drooling over the prospects of an Apple-created phone. Pundits everywhere dismissed the notion. Even after its release, it was met with […]

Old Technologies Still Sticking Around
August 15th, 2008 · No Comments · Business, Gadgets, Inventions, Inventions, Technology, Websites, emerging markets, mobile phones
Even as new technologies continue to flood the marketplace signaling death for older technologies, some older technologies simply refuse to die. I was reminded of this recently as I read a release touting IBM Lotus would be available on mobile phones. Wow. And here I was thinking Lotus was going to die a slow death…continuing […]

Sprint May Finally Be Getting It
April 1st, 2008 · 1 Comment · Business, Business Practices, Gadgets, Technology
So the CTIA show is going on now and all the wireless players are out there showing their goods. Normally I don’t pay much attention to this but when I saw Sprint talking about the Samsung Instinct (touted by many as a viable iPhone competitor) I couldn’t help but get giddy. Is Sprint finally getting […]

Why Palm and Apple Annoy Me
March 26th, 2008 · No Comments · Business, Business Practices, Gadgets
I’ve got the Palm Treo 755p that I use on Sprint’s network. Perhaps you’ve seen me write about it in a previous post here. Sprint’s network is nice and fast and I’ve had no problems with it. I’d love to stay on with them. I also love my Treo. I’ve got loads of apps on […]

If Only Sprint and Palm Could Get Their Sh*t Together
January 28th, 2008 · No Comments · Business, Business Practices, Gadgets, Technology
A few months ago I was turned onto the Sprint SERO plan. 500 anytime minutes, nights and weekends start at 7:oo (instead of the usual 9:00 for Verizon and others), unlimited data (yes…unlimited), unlimited text messages (at least they had that when I signed up)…all for a mere $30. I was spending much more than that with […]
