Apple has made a name for itself by inventing solutions with slick and well thought out interfaces that are easy to understand and use. It has also made a name for itself as an innovator, creating new technology after new technology. Most times, Apple has had a very focused strategy when it comes to solving [...]
I broke down. I bought LogMeIn Ignition, the remote control software for iOS. I resisted the purchase since the launch of the software in the App Store. I simply couldn’t see spending $30 for a piece of software that I could not see translating into a touch interface. But, this week, I found LogMeIn Ignition [...]

Spending FaceTime with clients and family
21, Oct 2011One of the more brilliant features included with the iPhone 4, and now the iPhone 4S, is something Apple calls FaceTime. It’s a video chat service that is dead simple to setup and use. For other iPhone users, it uses your phone number to identify you (no additional account needed) and for other Macs and [...]
SafeCopy: My answer to the Mozy changes?
10, Feb 2011I got a comment on my recent Mozy post which offered SafeCopy as an alternative to Mozy. When my current subscription to Mozy ends, I’m certainly in the market for a more favorable solution to meet my needs. Mozy’s new plans, in my opinion, do not offer enough space for the price they charge and [...]
What are your mobile apps telling about you?
20, Dec 2010I found a very interesting article today linked from the Wall Street Journal. The Journal did a set of tests on popular iPhone and Android apps to find out what personal information is being collected and sent back to the developer or third party companies about you, sometimes without your consent. The info-graphic is pretty [...]
iPhone 4 impressions and the case program
23, Jul 2010For once, I was not the first of my friends with the shiny new Apple toy! You see, I work for an AT&T reseller and we had an internal policy for the iPhone launch that employees would need to wait so that our customers could get iPhone 4′s in hand as quickly as possible. I [...]
When Apple last refreshed the Mac Mini line, it introduced a new version with Mac OS X Server preloaded that also dropped its optical drive in lieu of dual hard drives. This new configuration is quite popular according to a recent post on AppleInsider. That leads me to wonder and speculate about what could be [...]

Broken iPhone, happy ending
21, Sep 2009Friday evening, at approximately 10pm, my iPhone fell and was badly injured. It’s face was cracked and looked terrible. Fortunately, it still responded and I could use it. Saturday, after checking, I was still under a long contract with AT&T, so no cheap replacement option there. I knew from reading, that Apple was offering screen [...]

Monday discovery: Working MMS on my iPhone
14, Sep 2009Reports began appearing today that the MMS rollout for iPhones on AT&T may have begun. I, like many others, played with my carrier settings file when the iPhone 3.0 OS was released, which allowed tethering and allowed you to open up the MMS settings and make changes. After upgrading to OS 3.1 over the weekend, [...]
iPhone 3.0 arrives and impresses
23, Jun 2009I’ve been silent for the last week and enjoying my newest toy – the iPhone 3.0 upgrade which dropped last week. I’m very impressed with the release and with the incremental steps that Apple has delivered to all of us customers. In the meantime, I’ve been one-up’d at work by many co-workers who have upgraded [...]
