I think I will have to see this in action before passing final judgment, but I don’t like the way this sounds at all. Feels like we are moving backwards.

Chase - Why would you design an HTML email like this?
November 27th, 2007 · 2 Comments · marketing
In general this email is fine but with two glaring errors in my view that kill any chance for the recipient to appreciate what’s here.
As you can see from my callouts, the blue text in the paragraph highlighting the “what’s new” feature is NOT a link. Why? Why make it different [...]

Verizon opening their network…
November 27th, 2007 · No Comments · Nokia, gadgets and technology, marketing
Just caught this interesting snippet on the VZ…
Verizon “will provide customers the option to use, on its nationwide wireless network, wireless devices, software and applications not offered by the company.” This could be seen as a reaction to upcoming Android phones but probably won’t be accessible to the average hobbyist, as devices will need [...]

I decided last week that I wanted to simplify my mobile media experience and ordered a 6GB microSD card so i could my N95-3 and N810 for evrything instead of also carrying my iPhone just for a few albums and podcasts. I’ve had an iPod since it was first released and [...]

I think quite a few of us already live this way, but it’s far from mainstream - for now. The world is changing very quickly …

Sony Reader PRS-505
November 17th, 2007 · No Comments · gadgets and technology
I was in Borders this morning with the kids and saw they had the new Sony Reader. It’s remarkably thin and the display is gorgeous! Not sure this short video gives enough of an impression on how great the screen looks… The interface seemed a bit on the slow side, but I [...]

Nokia N82 revealed through a Virtual Live Event!
November 14th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Nokia, gadgets and technology
This morning while on the train, I was able to join the Virtual live event for the Nokia N82 launch via my Nokia N810 tablet connected over DUN to the N95. A pretty cool way to experience something like this and I believe I’m the only one who even attempted this.
The event has [...]

Android Demo Video
While there’s no gPhone per se, this demo gives a cool overview of how the platform works and what can be done. Seems like we are just scratching the surface here, but with WebKit, 3D acceleration and 3G data services some very cool stuff will be sure to arrive.
Too bad [...]

Nokia, I’m Connecting People
November 7th, 2007 · 5 Comments · Nokia, Personal
Tonight I gave my Brother-In-Law my Nokia N93 and my Sister-In-Law a Nokia N95-1 which they selected from my collection. To say they were not living on the edge of mobile tech would be an understatement… They were sharing a Nokia 6600 after my Lindsey’s BB Pearl was “washed” by their daughter. I’m not [...]

Gmail IMAP arrives … sucks the life from my system
November 1st, 2007 · 7 Comments · Gmail, apple
I’m not sure what your experience has been but Gmail IMAP is one slow ass system. On my MacBookPro, I left it running overnight to try and sync everything, but even today I am finding my system feels as though it is underwater. I see beach-balls and find navigating even my inbox to [...]
