Apple Keynote: Response
It’s that time again. The Mighty Steve has delivered his opening keynote for WWDC, and unveiled Apple’s latest raft of products. All, erm, three of them?
As anyone who knows me, or who’s read this site for any length of time will know: I’m a big fan of Apple. I use an iPod. My home PC [...]
MDA Vario tweaks
I'd been somewhat plagued by slow performance on my Vario over the last few days. The thing started taking forever to respond to key presses, which got very tedious, very quickly. Launching the inbox to send a message locked the device for a few seconds while it caught up with itself.

Acer 19″ Widescreen Goodness

The inevitable response
As long as Steve keeps doing his thing, the bloggers will write about it. I've posted my reaction to Apple's keynote (are they really keynotes?) presentations before, and I'm sure I will do again. The last time, I moaned about how unexciting the new iPod With Video was, and how it hadn't convinced me to [...]
New phone
Recently, I flogged my M500 (the Orange equivalent of the I-Mate Jam) and got myself a T-Mobile MDA Vario. The key differences, in brief, are that the Vario has a slide-out (qwerty) keyboard and runs Windows Mobile 5. I've had the device for a few weeks now, and I think the time has come to [...]
