We Need a MiFi With A Built In Wireless Router

I was just reading about a new miniature Femtocell and was thinking, you know what would be really great, a Femtocell built into a MiFi along with a traditional wireless router.  I have found myself more then once in a nice hotel that thought they were doing me a favor offering free internet if I [...]

Stores Need To Allow Mobile Self Checkout

With this onslaught of mobile technology taking over and being the hot thing in tech (at least in my world) it’s clear that mobile money and transactions must take off.  I just bought a gift card from a hair stylest (for my wife) today and he used a Square to charge my credit card.  This [...]

AT&T Elevate 4G Mobile Hotspot Review

I’ve had the AT&T Elevate 4G for about a week now and it’s been nothing less then magnificent.  I got it last week at CES and used it on my way home to download some music and podcasts onto my iPhone.  Then the night I got home the internet in my house went down and instead of calling my [...]

Vimeo and Vlingo From Pepcom at CES ’12 in Las Vegas

Pepcom also known as Mobile Focus was held Monday before CES opened.  It was the biggest I’ve ever seen it and I was a bit overwhelmed by the magnitude of it.  It was like a little trade show unto itself.  Anyways, I was able to snag Vlingo’s CEO Dave Grannan for a quick video.  Come [...]

Sadly I Need An Alarm System For My Home

So last night I pulled into my driveway after a nice birthday dinner for my mother in law to find someone waiting by their car with a shattered window and 1 less purse then she started with when she pulled up infront of my house.  This is very disturbing by itself but even more upsetting [...]

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 [...]

Credit Is Due To Nokia, Color Me Impressed

I was very excited to wake up this morning to read what Nokia had announced.  I’ve been stewing on it all day and intentionally not commenting.  I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to like let alone be impressed with today’s announcements.  I’m still bitter about Nokia fumbling Symbian so badly and going with Windows [...]

2 New Services From AT&T At CTIA

While I was at CTIA in San Diego last week I got the chance to talk to Georgia Taylor from AT&T.  We chatted about a whole host of exciting things coming from AT&T (I have some juicy BlackBerry news) as well as a few things I can actually blog about.  Like the new Toggling service, [...]

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 [...]
