Like all us PlayBook owners, I’ve been waiting far to long for the final version of OS 2.0. Saying and thinking OS 2.0 is weird for me. I was also one of the few people that used IBM’s OS/2 back in the day, not unlike being one of the few people with a PlayBook. So… Read More »
I just received the Bose MusicMonitor computer speakers I ordered online. Listing for a retail value of roughly $350, I actually am a little disappointed they don’t sound better, as in have more bass. The reviews I saw before purchasing all commented that they did have reasonably good bass, but not as good as speaker… Read More »
The web browser on the Transformer Prime, or rather Android 4 leaves something to be desired. Two very noticeable issues are viewing the tab bar and constant lock-ups. It’s quite nice the way you can scroll the web page tab bar left and right at the top of the screen with your finger, to see… Read More »
Do you have a blog? What software tool do you use to your blog posting? Till today, I’ve been using the ScribeFire addon for FireFox. It’s better than the direct web access on WordPress.com, but still has some shortcomings for me. I’ve put off finding something else till now. As any geek knows, Microsoft applications… Read More »
RIM released a new beta version of the 2.x OS today, version 2.0.0.7111. Replacing 2.0.0.6149 that I first noticed on Jan 6th. It seems to be difficult to easily discover what changes in one update to the next. Reports I read said that it adds predictive text and auto correct while typing, but I noticed… Read More »
I finally got my Asus Transformer Prime tablet this week on the 11th. The next day they OTA upgraded the thing to the latest Android OS, v4. I actually liked v3 better. This version is actually much less intuitive, even I have had to struggle a bit to figure out how to do what was… Read More »
I received my Transformer Prime this morning. I don’t know if I’m way behind most people that pre-ordered their’s or if it’s on par with the group, but I’ve been reading about many people that have had their’s for a week now. Believe it or not, Canada Post actually delivered it to my door, unlike… Read More »
I’m one of those few and optimistic people that own a BlackBerry Playbook. I’ve updated it to OS version 2.0 twice and gone back to the current 1.x release. I’ve also side-load some adapted Android apps, some work and some do not. This week after side-loading some Android apps that are supposed to work, I… Read More »
During the night my TP-Link TL-SG1024 24 Port Switch failed, going into a constant restart cycle. I knew about it before I even got up in the morning, since it’s the main switch in my home. And yes, I have most of the ports used since I have so many IP devices and network plugs… Read More »
Who sucks more, BestBuy or Asus when it comes to the flop of a pre-order promotion for what is arguably the most wanted Android tablet to date. They both do. Obviously Asus had fulfillment issues getting the thing out the door. And BestBuy seems to have done little to quickly get it into consumer’s hands… Read More »
