I love my new phone, the VX8100. I understand VCAST is a gimmick, but my, what a wonderful gimmick. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000AA7KZI/103-4962624-8803036 The EV-DO, DSL like wireless internet is no gimmick however. I don't have bluetooth on my laptop to try it out, but people are saying it's just as fast as DSL. If you're interested in unlocking all the hidden features on your phone, http://www.howardforums.com is the best resource I've found.

Anyone who knows me knows I watch a TON of TV at work. Well, nothing pisses me off more than channel 28 (CNN Headline News) when Nancy Grace is on. She seriously wants to have Natalee Holloway's babies. It's like 24/7 non-stop natalee holloway coverage. The other day I read this story about Latoyia Figeuroa, and it kinda pissed me off. http://allspinzone.com/blog/index.php?itemid=944
Kinda cool webpage with a picture lookup on all types of bugs. http://www.whatsthatbug.com/ Won't stop me from squishing whatever bug dares invade my property however. |
