New Old HDTV
We have finally moved into the modern era and acquired an HDTV! We traded our 21″ old-school weighs-zillions-of-pounds TV in for a 22″ HDTV that had been in my father-in-law’s office. He decided he wanted to put his ham radio in there, and the TV and cable box were taking up space. I was amazed … Continue reading
New Toy
I haven’t posted much lately, I have just been so busy with school! But I wanted to talk about my new gadget. I got a 32GB iPod Touch and it is so cool. I was thinking it might be a way to see if I wanted an iPhone, but now I see that there are … Continue reading
My Newish Blackberry
So I’ve got the Blackberry back. It turns out the old one did not survive enough for data transfer; I tried hooking it up and the computer registered it as new hardware, but then the Desktop Manager refused to see it as connected. The latest backup I had was July 29th so I restored that … Continue reading
Fixed Camera
I finally fixed the issue with my phone. I have no idea what the problem was, but I fixed it. I completely disassembled my phone (turned out to need T5 and T6 drivers), blew on the camera a lot, and put it all back together…mostly. It doesn’t quite all snap together right anymore, and I’m … Continue reading
End of the Month
Tonight I went with my best friends to see Mamma Mia – the movie, not the play. I hadn’t been expecting to, but I found out this morning that they had already made plans, so I asked if I could join. The movie was cute, but damn, I really see why they say there is … Continue reading
New Blackberry Models
When I saw on BBCool that the Blackberry 8820 is about to be released, I got slightly worried. The article reported that the phone will combine GPS and wifi in one unit, which as far as I can tell is a first for Blackberry devices. If this phone had a camera, I would have been … Continue reading
Writing from an iPhone
I am making this post from ryanmacklin‘s iPhone. The web browser is really kickass but this keyboard is very difficult to me. In fact, I was going to say more but I just can’t type with this. Whew!
Hello from Blackberry
I am making a real quick post from my new phone. To my amazement, AT&T actually came through with an unlock code – I thought for sure they wouldn’t. But they did! Unfortunately I had already given up on them and ordered another Curve, already unlocked, with the intention of returning this one. The seller … Continue reading
Not Quite Yet
Argh! My Blackberry got delivered yesterday, or they tried at least. If my sister-in-law had called me last night like I’d asked her to do when it arrived, I could have rushed to the local post office and picked it up this morning! But no, she didn’t, and I didn’t get over to the house … Continue reading
Blackberry Curve 8310
I just bought a fancy new phone. A very fancy, state of the art, not crippled by T-Mobile, phone. I bought a Blackberry Curve 8310 in Titanium, and it is my dream phone. At first my wife said I absolutely couldn’t buy it, but she finally relented! Instead of getting me a PS2 for my … Continue reading
