Goodbye Cingular

Monday, June 26. 2006

As of tonight I am no longer a Cingular customer.  I have ported my number to T-Mobile.  They seem to be a much better company and offer better services than cingular did.  Not to mention they promised not to send a "we are closing your account" letter to us.

Now I just have to patiently wait for my razr :-)

So Funny

Hunt for a SmartPhone

Thursday, June 15. 2006


So far, I think I have it nailed down to a few different smart phones. I decided that the blackberry is out of the picture. Here are the smart phones i'm looking at:

There are also the Palm phones, but they look to be a bit on the bulky side. I think my overall pick from those 3 is the A780.

What do you think? Let me know!

If GM had developed technology like Microsoft

Thursday, June 8. 2006

For all of us who feel only the deepest love and affection 
for the way computers have enhanced our lives, read on.

At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly
compared the computer industry with the auto industry and
stated, "If GM had kept up with technology like the computer
industry has, we would all be driving $25.00 cars that got
1,000 miles to the gallon."
In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press 
release stating: If GM had developed technology like Microsoft,
we would all be driving cars with the following characteristics
(and I just love this part):

1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.

2. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to
buy a new car.

3. Occasionally, your car would die on the freeway for no reason. You
would have to pull to the side of the road, close all of the windows,
shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could
continue.
For some reason you would simply accept this.

4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause
your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would
have to reinstall the engine.

5. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was reliable,
five times as fast and twice as easy to drive -- but would run on only
five percent of the roads.

6. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all
be replaced by a single "This Car Has Performed An Illegal Operation_
warning light.

7. The airbag system would ask, "Are you sure?" before deploying.

8. Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out
and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lift the door handle,
turned the key, and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.

9. Every time a new car was introduced car buyers would have to learn
how to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate
in the same manner as the old car.

10. You'd have to press the "Start" button to turn the engine off.

Please share this with your friends who love -- but sometimes hate their
computer!!
