iPhone - All Sizzle, no Steak
Once again the folks at Apple have demonstrated their ''I know best'' attitude towards their customers. I saw through their iPhone hype and purchased a Sprint Instinct instead. It works GREAT!! As a professional truck driver, I find that the turn-by-turn GPS navigation is awesome. The fact I can watch live TV and get live NASCAR audio radio feed ...

Free Cell Phone Game Instructions
I’ve made a tutorial on how to get cell games working for free. (I've bought some pretty poor games for $5-7) Its on my June 9th, 08 Entry. I've made it as clear as I possible so anyone should be able to do it in about 10 minutes give or take. Cheers I believe in fair use and adding games to your phone should not be as difficult as the ...

I had to write this
I wanted to actually write a similar post on a different article from way more recently. But I lost the article after I read it, and looked all over the internet, using google, and windows live search, and apparently, couldn't find it, I wonder why. The article I'm reffering to is one of a similar subject, it's about my generation, the facebook ...

Old cell phones are classified as hazardous waste...
The numbers are astounding - and they are only going to grow. In the US people replace their phone once every 18 months. They are ubiquitous and very re-usable! But many languish is sock drawers or worse, landfills. At INFORM, Inc. - 34 year old non profit environmental organization, we’ve been working on the immense issue of the health and ...

Actually you can have internet "anywhere".....
The new MacBook Air is not the second coming by any stretch of the imagination. But the main point of this article was a lack of internet support using existing cell networks, which the iPhone somewhat blends seamlessly with WiFi. You can achieve the same effect on the new MacBook Air, or even any Apple computer with built in Bluetooth, using a ...

Re: blue tooth head set review
The review of bluetooth devices is much to supeficial and would never pass muster in Consumer Reports. The responses I have read suggest the readers of Slate have limited practical experience with the devices. I am a Ph.D. Truck driver. An unusual combination. We spend all most days in a noisy environment and hands free, even unattached, is much ...

Scrims = (Undesirable) Faraday Cage?
What exactly are the dimensions of the holes, or any gaps, in the scrims being used, especially the ones in the Princeton University garage completed in 2000, which appear to surround/shield the entire sides of the structure? It appears that such scrims would serve as a Faraday cage, blocking radiofrequency (RF) signals from reaching from the ...

E-MAIL IS N O T OBSOLETE....NEITHER IS SNAIL-MAIL!!!!!!
EMAIL IS N O T OBSOLETE.....NEITHER IS SNAIL-MAIL!!!!!!! I venture here to repeat myself, because I feel SO strongly about this. I am a firm believer in the Native American idea of ''walking a mile in another person's moccassins''.....which the author of this piece obviously neglected to do. NOT everyone in the world has a computer at ...

Pathetically Simplistic
Why you would give credence to such a pathetic, intellectually lazy, and potentially dangerous idea as tying scholastic performance to immediate tangible rewards is beyond me. This article is exactly why Slate can be such an aggravating publication so much of the time. Raw, steaming, maggot infested garbage like this often sits right next to ...
