Beam me up Scotty
Monday, 30 August 2004 8:47 A GMT-05
James Doohan, who played the Stark Trek Scottish chief of engineering on the 60’s show and subsequent movies, had a “farewell convention” this last weekend. When I learned about it this morning I was surprised, as I hadn’t known that Doohan

First pics of Treo Ace
Friday, 27 August 2004 8:15 A GMT-05
Gizmodo by way of TreoCentral has the first real pictures of the Treo Ace, or as they are calling it the 'Treo 650', the successor to the current Treo 600. It looks good, although not dramatically different. The keyboard seems to be the major des

T-Mobile finally offering the Treo 600 in retail stores
Thursday, 26 August 2004 1:49 P GMT-05
Treocentral has a piece about how the Treo 600 is finally being offered by T-Mobile in their store outlets. Previously you had to order it through PalmOne (or earlier Handspring), although for the first five months after the T600 came out it simply

Telephony
Monday, 23 August 2004 8:50 A GMT-05
Gizmodo has a review of the Sidekick II in addition to an accounting of some T-Mobile account problems. The review is ok, although it doesn’t really compare the unit to the previous Sidekick and may have a couple of inaccuracies. Nevertheless,

High Speed Browsing on the Treo and MyTreo.Net
Friday, 20 August 2004 8:07 A GMT-05
The web browser that comes with my phone, the Treo 600, is not a bad browser at all, at least compared to other alternatives. Many phones simply have a “WAP” browser, which can only display text, and not much of it at that. You cannot go to a

Olympic Idiot
Thursday, 19 August 2004 11:18 A GMT-05
There’s certainly enough inane crap on TV these days, and the Olympics has never been a bastion of enlightenment in a see of darkness, with all it’s hyped up stories and blatant US favoritism. But come on!I was watching some of the coverage of

Replace your Blackberry with a Treo 600 – IMAP and Push on a Treo
Wednesday, 18 August 2004 10:32 A GMT-05
I’ve recently started using a new mail program that seems to satisfy almost all of my email needs for a phone. It is still in beta, but works very well and should get even better as the developer fixes things and hones it according to users’ su

Obesity and Money
Tuesday, 17 August 2004 11:10 A GMT-05
NPR had an interesting piece this morning on how income is related to obesity rates. Obesity historically was seen as a mark of wealth until fairly recently. It probably still is in some poorer areas. This was because only the wealthy had enoug

Moblogs
Friday, 13 August 2004 3:24 P GMT-05
You would think that having been blogging for over a year and using a Treo 600 and before that a Sidekick I would have caught onto moblogging already. Perhaps its because I don’t go on a whole lot of trips and when I do go on trips I often bring
Cell Phone Reception
Thursday, 12 August 2004 8:17 A GMT-05
Our recent trip to North Carolina was a lot of fun and a great learning experience in a lot of ways, some more obvious than others. One less obvious way was about cell phone reception. I have been a T-Mobile customer now for over three years in t

Back on track
Wednesday, 11 August 2004 7:52 A GMT-05
Well, as nice as vacations are, when you're not a terribly organized person to begin with they tend to throw you hopelessly behind. We just got back from a trip to North Carolina on Sunday night. This week at work I've been in training and last n
