What’s Going On In Mobile? Not Much!

What’s going on in mobile?  It’s not a metaphoric question,  I’m serious.  Really, what’s going on?  Yes AT&T is trying to buy T-Mobile.  Yes HP murdered WebOS.  Yes the iPhone 4s came out and Google bought Motorola.  But what is going on in mobile?  Where’s the revolution?  Why aren’t consumers seeing any change? AT&T hasn’t [...]

New BlackBerry’s Running OS 7

              In the recent weeks I remembered why I love using a BlackBerry so much, it’s reliable to a fault.  I was in San Diego for CTIA and was having a really hard time not having a reliable phone with me in terms of battery life.  My iPhone is [...]

SpeakToIt Is Androids Answer To Siri

I’ve been an iPhone 4 user since June and 1 of the things I’ve missed from my Android days was dictating SMS and email by voice.  When Siri was announced and subsequently launched I was trying to convince myself I don’t need the 4S.  Well I don’t, but the Siri commercials and potential things I [...]

Telco’s Should Add Boingo WiFi To Plans

I’m reasonably new to this whole iPhone business as well as new to data limitations.  Up until recently I was an Android/BlackBerry/Nokia user and had been on an unlimited data plan for as long as I can remember.  I’ve been enjoying the iPhone a great deal but I’m always concerned about going over my data allowance.  Onavo has [...]

BlackBerry Bold 9780 Review

    This blog post is quite late but none the less still appropriate.  I’ve had the BlackBerry 9780 for a few months now and want to share my thoughts on it.  This isn’t going to be a traditional review like most others, I’m just going to tell you what I like and dislike about [...]

I Need A Java App To Track A Senior Citizen ASAP
