I’ve been pleased so far with my in-house internet cameras and decided I’d like to be able to keep tabs on the outside of the house as well. TRENDnet sells weatherproof enclosures for their cameras but they won’t work with the night-vision models because the IR just reflects off of the glass. I started looking …
I couldn’t resist any longer: the recent exceptions added to the DMCA for jailbreaking allowed for the return of jailbreakme.com, the easiest way yet to jailbreak your iPhone. Just about every podcast I listen to/watch had talked about this and demoed it live so I figured what the heck? I made a full backup of …
Another piece of tech I implemented before we went on our vacation roadtrip was a series of TRENDnet wireless internet cameras so we could keep an eye on the house while we were away.
Back in March, in preparation for our recent family roadtrip vacation, I purchased the Polaroid PoGo Instant Mobile Printer. The tiny PoGo prints 2 x 3-inch borderless color images in under a minute onto ZINK (zero ink) paper.
Today Rackspace announced the availability of Jungle Disk for the iPhone. I can now finally access all of my files backed up on Amazon S3 while on the go, pretty cool! Unlike the desktop version, however, the iPhone app is only for accessing files already on your S3 account. You can delete files from your …
Steve Job’s recent announcement of the new iPad (really?) coincided closely with the two month anniversary of my getting an iPhone. So how have the past 8 weeks or so been? I’m definitely better at typing on the virtual keyboard. I’m nowhere near as fast (or accurate) as I was on the Treo’s physical keyboard, but I can …
After over 13 years of using (mostly) PalmOS and (some) Windows Mobile devices as my PDA and/or cell phone, I now own my first device that runs … OS X. Yep, I got an iPhone. We’re in the early stages of testing the iPhone with our corporate e-mail infrastructure: Microsoft Exchange and GoodLink. Since my AT&T account has been upgrade-eligible for some time (the …
It may be a while (if ever) before I get a Palm Pre, especially since Sprint has it exclusively for 2009. However, I don’t have to wait for the webOS experience. TealPoint software has released TealOS, an amazing piece of programming that duplicates the look-and-feel of webOS on the current Palm handhelds. Here’s a screenshot …
I bought my very first PalmOS device (the Pilot 1000 by USRobotics) back in 1996 from an Elek-Tek in Castleton, Indiana … a total impulse buy. It only took me a few weeks to master Graffiti (I remember I actually started using Graffiti characters in my normal handwriting). I took a few shots at writing …
So I broke down last night and purchased the latest map update for my Garmin StreetPilot c340. After downloading the 2gb file and running into a few setup issues, I finally got it installed on the GPS. This morning, I fired the unit up on my way to work, as I am wont to do …
