I have just received the newest version of an already fabulous program: QLaunch. Remember how I complained that the Palm Slim Case pushed on the buttons of my TT while Julie and I were on the COMDEX trip, which completely discharged my battery? DigitSense has come up with a solution for that. The 2.3 version

Now that Palm has released a patch to fix the crappy audio performance on the Tungsten T, how many of you are now using it as your main MP3 player? Do you listen to music thru headphones, earbuds or the speaker? I’ve always used a pair of Sony behind-the-neck-style headphones, but now that my hair

Yesterday was a pretty good day for me…let’s call it an early Valentine’s. Not only did I get flowers and a sweet card from my husband, I also received the new Tungsten T Proporta case, a BoxWave miniSync for my T and… after installing the new Palm Patch, I installed the Pocket Tunes MP3 player!

What program do you use that keeps you from completely switching to a different OS? I have a couple of programs on my Palm that keep me from being able to completely switch over to a Pocket PC…and a couple programs on my Pocket PC that keep me from being able to switch soley to

I’ve been looking into buying a new digital camera to replace or compliment my Nikon Coolpix 990. I either want one camera that is both very small and can take excellent macro shots, or I just want a very small camera that takes great regular shots. So far, I’m really interested in the Minolta DiMAGE

Janak, over at Pocket PC Thoughts posted a picture of a member of Norway’s Parliament playing Metalion. In and of itself, this wouldn’t be that big of a deal. The problem was, that he was playing the game “right during the middle of Wednesday’s parliamentary debate on Iraq.”So here is my question to you guys

Julie’s and my families are gearing up to take a whirlwind tour of Great Britain for Spring Break. We will be based in Edinburgh and will be visiting London, hopefully Paris, and points of interest between. None of us has been to Europe before, so if you have any words of advice on what we

Many of you might remember when Julie and I reviewed the Sony Aibo. My daughter wanted one so badly, but at $1500 I just couldn’t justify the cost. Now I have something that might be even better – thanks to Brando in Hong Kong and Julie, my best friend. Call it a belated Christmas gift,

Wow, I’ve shocked myself! I’ve been on an eBay selling spree since the holidays, and have totally downsized my PDA collection. Most of them were collecting dust on a shelf so I thought what the heck. I’m now down to only the Tungsten T (my main PDA at the moment), iPAQ 3835, iPAQ 3670, Sony

What a week! Steve and I just got back from MD Anderson (Houston) and we have great news – Steve’s CT Scans looked good! YAY! I made the ever so brilliant decision to leave my laptop at home when we went this time, and by Wednesday (the day we were supposed to be home) I

I’d like to apologize to everyone for my 2nd mailing list goof. *BLUSH* I accidentally copied the list on a message to a vendor asking for an eval of a new PDA. *ARGH* The problem was brought on by Outlook’s wonderful address completion feature (yes, I’m being sarcastic). *SIGH* I’ve had the mailing list address

John Salazar has just sent me the ultimate screen protection for my Tungsten! I have the newest G2, specifically cut for the TT. It was easy to install, is very clear, and uses no adhesive whatsoever. Since I use my TT extensively for eBook reading, I want the clearest protection I can find – and

Now that it is the weekend, I plan to spend quite a bit of time putting the HP 1910 through its paces. So far the screen looks even better to me than the 5455 that I had. Too bad I already sold it, or I could have taken some comparison photos for the review. I
