There have been a lot of rumors and leaks about the ebook reader that Barnes&Noble (B&N) is supposedly coming out with. Gizmodo has a nice spread with photos showing a really nice looking device with an eink display on top and a color, touchscreen lcd on the bottom. If this is true I want one! I’ve been a big fan of ebook readers for a while and I often carry around my iRex Illiad reader (it does a great job with PDF’s). Let’s see if this can displace the iRex in my collection.

There have been no new posts in months! This is terrible. On the plus side there will be some big time activity in the next couple of weeks as I have some really cool things planned for posting.

BN.com launches their new ebooks site with an eReader app for the iPhone and Blackberry. Check it out!

The phone of the day is the Motorola Razr2 V8. This fine flip phone is quite similar to the Razr2 V9 in shape but has some distinct differences. First of all it runs a customized Linux for its OS. It has no memory expansion slots but it does have a large amount of built in memory (mine has 2GB of ram built in). It also supports Java apps running in the background (Exchange Activesync takes good advantage of this). This phone does not support any type of 3G capabilities (EDGE max). The rest of the phone is quite similar to the V9. They both have two 320×240 screens (inside and out). It has a 2 megapixel camera also but no wifi or GPS (bummer). I still like this phone and dust it off every once in a while as it is extremely thin and very solid feeling.

Today’s favorite phone is the Blackberry 8350i. This is by far my favorite of the Blackberry Curves. It has double the memory of the other Curve models (128MB vs 64MB). It runs the 4.6 version of the Blackberry OS. It has a 2 megapixel camera, wifi, stereo bluetooth, and GPS (hurray!). It works on iDEN networks, so it has the famous Push to Talk walkie talkie feature. The biggest flaw also happens to come from the iDEN network, brutally slow data speeds (bummer). I still really like this phone a lot. I use it on the Boost Mobile prepaid network. For GPS I use the free Nav4All program and it works well. I really have no hesitation recommending this phone to anyone.

Feature comparison of Blackberry Curve models

Today’s phone is the Motorola i425. This iDEN phone is extremely basic. It has a 128×128 color screen, push to talk and GPS. There is no 3G, no wifi, no microsd slot, nothing! It’s quite basic and only costs about $20 with the Boost Mobile prepaid plan. You can install some Java apps and the GPS works just fine. For the money it’s well worth it!

To all you nerd dads out there, Happy Father’s Day. No matter how much you love your gadgets, you love your kids more! So put down those gadgets and play with your kids.
Enjoy the day!

Today I am playing with the Sony Ericsson P1i. This phone is a mixed bag that could be really great, but it’s not… It’s a tri-band phone that was never really meant for the USA. As such it has no usable 3G (not even EDGE!) so you are putting along at GPRS speeds. It does have wifi, but no GPS (bummer). The camera is quite good though. It has a touch screen (resistive) and comes with a little stylus. It also has a unique keyboard that registers keypresses depending where the key was pressed. I kind of like that feature. It uses the UIQ interface and has a lot of free software available for it. Nice phone, but not if you are in the USA.

Today’s phone is the HTC G1 running the Android OS. This is a good phone but just not suited for the enterprise user. It has a nice touchscreen and trackball with a flip out screen and keyboard. It has a 3 megapixel autofocus camera, 3G (UMTS on T-Mobile in the USA) wifi and GPS. There is no built-in Exchange Activesync support. If you are a user of the Google Suite of apps it’s right up your alley though. You do need to contend with a fairly mediocre battery life and lack of a standard headphone jack. It’s still pretty cool, but I’d wait for the G2 or some other Android powered phones.

Gizmodo has a brief review on the new iPhone 3GS. In brief, if you don’t have an iPhone or have a first gen iPhone get it!
