Well, talk about pleasent surprises – T-Mobile Sunday released the AKU 2.3 firmware update for their MDA. You can find more information about my MDA here, but if you want to download the new firmware yourself, go here.
The update includes the long-awaited push-mail update and support for Bluetooth stereo audio (A2DP). Watch for more info – I’ll be upgrading tonight! Via: Mobile Gadget News
Along with this heat wave in the upper midwest, it seems my home wireless router may be on the fritz. It keeps cycling through reboots (or so it seems).
We’ve had about a week and a half of record, or near-record high temps, making it very hard on everyone. Not too easy to keep cool, and I wonder if the heat has anything to do with my router issue.
I’ve connected my main home computer directly into the cable modem and will start trying to diagnose if there is an issue with my router. About 4 days ago I had upgraded the firmware on the device with a new version from D-Link. Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but I may try going back to the old firmware (if I can keep a connection long enough).
So I’m trying to use Microsoft’s Voice Command with a Bluetooth headset without success…until I found the work-around over on Geek.com!
This post at Geek.com details how to change the default action on an HTC Wizard (such as my MDA), to use Voice Command instead of the built-in voice dial software. If you’re running into the same problem you can apply this work-around to your device and enjoy the benefits of Voice Command without needing to pull your phone out of your pocket.
Boy, did I get a surprise over lunch today! I’ve put in a few requests to review several bluetooth headsets, and got a call-back from a Jabra representative this afternoon.
So it looks like I’ll be able to do an in-depth review of the BT500 as I investigate all the offerings in the marketplace. This will be a good thing, as I can actually test the latest in Jabra’s behind-the-ear headset design and technology.

Yup, taxes are criminal and we need serious reforms. I've always said that if you want to see a tax revolt, make withholdings illegal and have Americans write a tax check every payday. They'll revolt for sure. You don't miss what you never had.
Sen. @berniemoreno says voter ID and proof of citizenship are simply common sense.
“We’re talking about a very low threshold — identify who you are and prove you’re a U.S. citizen when you register to vote. I think we’re getting closer to
