Alas, my time as an Android owner has ended. I want to get this post out while my brain is still fresh with Android usage and learning the ways of the iPhone. Well…there’s not much to learn…in true Apple fashion everything is pretty damn simple. Here’s what I see. Email Setup – Holy crap that [...]

Oh You Crazy Smartphones

How I love my smartphone! I know I know I promised to post the funny story of going from the momentous POS (and that’s not Point-of-Sale) Samsung Moment to the HTC Evo but I’ve been a bit busy lately. So much going on out there in the world since my last post. The rise of [...]

Android – It’s Good In Theory
February 28th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Android, Business, iPhone, mobile phones, Samsung, smartphones, Technology, Wireless
Android phones, such a good idea but the implementation is abysmal. I like the thought of having competition for the iPhone and other mobile OSes out there…we have to keep innovation up and keep from having a monopoly. The Android OS itself isn’t bad. Not as clean and refined as iOS (the OS on the [...]

Technology is advancing at such a rate that the barriers to entry for so many industries are dropping to a point where they are nearly negligible. What does this mean? It means that anyone with a good idea and the balls to actually go for something big (or just the time and talent to go [...]

The iPad Is Not A Bust – A Quick Look At Apple History
April 9th, 2010 · No Comments · Business, Hardware, Inventions, Inventions, Technology
The iPad is out and there are plenty of nay-sayers out there bemoaning the fact it doesn’t do this or it doesn’t have that. Many predict that this will be the product that sinks Apple’s boat (how they figure that is beyond me. Isn’t Apple now worth more than Wal-Mart?) and have a whole slew [...]

What Is CTIA Telling Us?
March 24th, 2010 · No Comments · Business, emerging markets, mobile phones, smartphones, Technology, Wireless
CTIA is in full swing right now. Rather than giving you the blow-by-blow of every product announced (there’s more than a few…duh) I think we should look at the overall picture of what’s going on. Below are a few highlights…let us take these in as we ponder what it all means. Palm announcing their phones [...]

Updating the Samsung Moment’s software. Egads…and this is why Apple continues to be successful. They just make things easy to do. I bring this up as I had just finished updating the software for my Android phone. First, some background. I’ve got a Samsung Moment running on Sprint’s network. Love it! Love Sprint’s network, love [...]
