Windows Vista Upgrade - A Recommendation
I’m just going to give out my recommendation as a blanket statement to everyone. When you start seriously thinking of upgrading to Microsoft’s Windows Vista, simply plan on buying a new computer.

Surviving without Windows - Day 20
So how have I been doing in my month-long quest to be Linux-only user for all December 2006?
Not as well as I had hoped.

What is Palm doing now? - The Wireless Weblog

Phone Rebuild
Time for another phone rebuild. I’ve got so much junk on it that it’s got a sync problem. Definitely on the device, not an ActiveSync issue.
I’ll be moving from the Qtek 2.17 ROM to the latest T-Mobile USA ROM. There are many new features in this ROM, even though it has its own flaws.
Again, I’ll [...]
Day of the Dash
Well, I’ve waited quite awhile to see a day like today. You couldn’t get away from it! Certainly, Cingular & Verizon have had days like this, but T-Mobile has always been treated like an also-ran when it comes to phones and service in the media.
But today was different - literally, everyone had coverage of [...]
