One of the best things about being a Gadgeteer is that I get the chance to play with all the toys that I never had as a child. We didn’t have all that much going up, so I’m really making up for it now. :o) It also helps that I’m still a big kid at

I am a girly-girl. I like to look great, act feminine, and be treated like a lady. The irony of high heels worn with a pair of jeans is completely lost on me, because I would rather look good than be comfortable. Every now and then I will get lucky and I’ll find something that

Sometimes the littlest thing can make me so happy. :o) Like this morning, I was re-reading our Zayo review (the anal retentive in me was looking for typos…) and came across the passage where Judie says that she is using the Stabo Stylus Q with her Zayo. So I open my gadget cabinet and start

Product Requirements: Device: Sony CLIÉ T & NR Series I believe that a cradle definitely has its benefits, but there are times when a cable is the preferable mode for your information’s transportation.

Here I sit in Westford, MA again for another week of training (for my day job). This time I’ve brought Mini-me (Fujitsu 2110 Lifebook) with me. Is it working out better for me than the PowerBook did on my last trip? So far, so good. Like the PowerBook, I just plugged in the ethernet cable

How do you spell frustration? XP-SP1.

Robert Crago just sent me some info on his Palm OS program called CalcWrite. It is a different style of calculator than what we are typically familiar with. Instead of tapping numbers, you actually write numbers and mathematical operators directly onto the Palm screen. Pretty cool! SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It
