Disney’s Mobile Magic application- the future for WDW guests?

Disney’s Mobile Magic application- the future for WDW guests?

Posted on 20. Nov, 2009 by .

Last week, Disney Parks Blog gave some wonderful screenshots of their new Mobile Magic Application. The concept is this, if you are a Verizon Wireless subscriber, you can download the application for $9.99, that’s good for 180 days. And for a limited time (I assume until January, while they are stretching the app’s legs), it [...]

Blackberry Storm 2 trying to get noticed

Posted on 29. Oct, 2009 by .

Hey, over here! The release of the Blackberry Storm 2 on the Verizon’s network, yesterday, seemed to be the least publicized event in quite some time.  This product that has the ability to hold or expand RIM’s market share (currently at approx. 40%),  but with the marketing and pizazz of a Kleenex commercial, fails to [...]

Apple CFO says DVR, CableCARD not coming to Apple TV

Posted on 08. Sep, 2009 by .

They say, never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.  This is Apple in a nutshell.  Why do they always do this?  THey said, “it didn’t mesh with Apple’s business”.  Yeah, I could see how controlling the Home Media interface with all of your sources could really be a bummer, Apple.  How about being able [...]

The online storage fun continues

Posted on 03. Sep, 2009 by .

There are a lot of online storage companies out there, and I have tried about 4 of them (iDrive, Mozy, JungleDisk (S3), and Carbonite on Windows).  I have a large need for storage; my iTunes (600GB) and iPhoto (250GB) libraries are getting unruly.  Unfortunately, I haven’t broken down to get a Drobo yet… damn, do [...]

I’m a Mac… and why MS is unbalanced

Posted on 19. Aug, 2009 by .

I have to tell you, this is my favorite “I’m a Mac..” commercial. It reminds me of my last trip to Florida when I needed to get some old RAM for a 5 year old laptop.  They no longer carried it in the big-box stores, so we ended up going to a local “Computer Repair [...]
