Agendus for BlackBerry – Now Available in BETA

As of TODAY, you can now try out the Beta version of Agendus for BlackBerry. Because this is a Public Beta, you can snag it for $9.95 (the cost will increase to $19.95 once it is out of Beta, so if you plan to go for it, now is the time). BUT, before you spend […]

Why Twitter?

If you are not familiar with Twitter, it’s one of the more popular “micro-blogging” applications around at the moment (both for positive as well as negative reasons, but I’ll get to that later). For a wiki-rific explanation, Wikipedia explains Twitter very well and provides more insight to the application and it’s use. So, why use […]

Bridging the Gap Between Landline and Wireless

Recently I came across what appears to be a hybrid telephone! The Vtech 6110 slightly resembles a Treo or BlackBerry, but it isn’t a cell phone. Since this is NOT a cell phone, it’s very surprising to see a full Qwerty keyboard and mention of full IM and text messaging capabilities. Upon reading about this […]

These days there aren’t too many things cooler than a new iPhone, and it’s always fun to open new toys. Better yet, use OTHER toys to open your new toys! Photo by ntr23
