First you are going to need to make sure that you have connected your computer and [...]

Thanks to all of the friends and family who made turning 35 so much fun. Well, the stuff we did was fun, turning 35 really wasn’t all that fun. The thing that really sucks is the fact that I am so damn tired right now. Pictures posted soon of the festivities and [...]

Ok, so yesterday my new little USB GPS receiver shows up and of course I go into full geek mode. I pulled out the IBM X20 (the best thin-client laptop platform ever made IMHO) and plugged it in. I fired up MS AutoRoute 2006 and once I configured the GPS receiver with the software [...]

I am in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico right now and am writing this post via the wireless connection (via bluetooth) on my Nokia 6620 (Cingular Wireless). I have the unlimited data plan from Cingular, which has been a bit [...]

I am trying to find someone who can tell me about their EV-DO coverage experiences in San Francisco and more specifically in Pacific Heights. I am tired of waiting for Cingular Wireless to get off their asses and roll out some serious 3G technology here and I saw the soon-to-be-released Kyocera KR1 EV-DO Router today [...]

If you live in San Francisco, like I do, you can get secure (encrypted) WiFi intenet access from Google. If you are a dork like me, then you have certainly heard the rumors about Google starting up a free wifi network in the US. This is the first beta release of Google’s [...]

Ok, I just came across a push email client for Series 60/Symbian OS phones. It is called MailX. MailX is a subscription based push email system designed to work on phones using the Symbian Operating System. I was pretty excited when I first heard there was a push email client for my phone, [...]

Ok, so we are getting to the point where us dorks have multiple data networks that we use on a regular basis and some that we use on a less frequent basis. If you have a laptop and a wireless network card (WiFi / 802.xx), then you know that this means you have to configure [...]

Some of the new Acuras, BMWs and Jaguars are coming with Bluetooth handsfree systems built into the car. You can transition between phone to car and back to your phone seamlessly via the Bluetooth hands free profile. So, what do you do if you don’t have one of these cars? You buy yourself [...]

Seems like a lot of people are making it here looking for information on using Cingular’s MediaNet service. I have the MediaNet unlimited package as when I signed up for the service I was very excited about the prospects of using my Nokia 6620 as a mobile modem for my laptop via Bluetooth. [...]

I just came across the Audiovox SMT 5600 Smartphone. I have not seen the phone in person, but from what I can see, it seems like a pretty sweet package. Let me say for the record that I am not a Microsoft fan, but I think they are finally making a compelling argument (my new [...]

Just came across the Jaguar XK Victory Edition that is to be released some time soon. The car is being released to celebrate Jaguar’s XKR, Trans Am Series, race cars’ (with 650bhp) four Manufacturer’s Cup outright wins. Basically, they have been kicking the crap out of everyone else since they introduced the XKR race program. [...]

Okay, now things are getting out of control. Nokia has just launched a free new Bluetooth service for their Bluetooth enabled phones called Nokia Sensor. You can check out the demo movie here. This is just plain crazy. In the demo, two people at a club meet because of Nokia Sensor. What [...]

I just noticed that Nokia put out a Bluetooth keyboard to work with their Series 60 phones. The 6620 is the only Series 60 phone in the USA right now and that happens to be what I own. The only drawback is that the thing costs $150. That is pretty steep Nokia, how about [...]

Well, I laughed at Danielle the other day when the computer that is running Windows XP and Outlook 2003 and is configured to sync with both of our Nokia phones separately (or so I thought), sync’d my Outlook contact information to her phone. She has been waiting patiently for this stupid company to send [...]

We went to pick up Danielle’s new phone after the silly Cingular Phone Sales debacle (more on that later) at the local Cingular store the other day. We got her the Nokia 6230, which pretty much has all of the features that my Nokia 6620 has without the Symbian OS and some of the capacity. [...]

Using your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone as an internet gateway is really easy….if you know how to set it up. Funny thing is that Cingular does not tell you how to use the MediaNet unlimited account I have as an internet gateway, I had to search for an hour or so online to get it [...]
