My wife and I went on a week long vacation/family get-together in North Myrtle Beach. While we intended to be as disconnected as possible, I promised my wife that she would have the ability to get online as needed, because she has a major event she’s directing in early August. I took along my netbook, [...]
A common scenario: Someone calls their wireless carrier for support on their smartphone, and gets the runaround, particularly if dealing with “Level 1″ technicians on the phone. The end result is a lot of time wasted, and too often, unsatisfactory results. Not saying those folks are ignorant – they just have too many calls do [...]
A few weeks ago, I was experiencing random resets on my HTC EVO. After numerous troubleshooting attempts to rule out various causes, I went to the Sprint store and (thanks to having insurance on the device), they ordered me a new phone. A few days later, I was randomly resetting again! And for the record, [...]

Went to Rochester, NY and had my first taste of 4G usage. Made me not want to return to Louisville until Sprint turns it on here!! Seriously, the speed was blazing and (go ahead and laugh, GSM customers), it was awesome being able to use voice & data at the same time. I truly look [...]
Brian Cooley over at CNET did a quick Top 5 for both the pros and cons of purchasing the new iPhone 4. This is mostly for you fence-sitters, as fanboys already have their device ordered (or will be in line tomorrow!), but Brian still brings up some interesting points! Personally, I feel I made the [...]
Found this over at eWeek. While I can understand that carriers are in a panic about escalating data use, this movement away from unlimited data, started by AT&T, seems headed in the wrong direction. Comments by Verizon’s CFO suggest the company is considering following rival AT&T into a tiered pricing structure for its mobile data [...]
Tony Bradley over at PC World makes a case for why someone (businesses in particular) might want to wait for Windows Phone 7 to come out before making a decision on which smartphone to go with. Read his article here. Food for thought…
