Our wings are not tired

I am on the road so I won't be able to update my iPhone or my iPad until I'm back on July 14th. The machine I sync with is the iMac in my office.

Hey. New board.

eReader + public transit is a beautiful thing. The Kindle, at least, is perfectly designed for easy one-handed reading, perfect for reading while holding on to the overhead rail on trains/buses during rush hour.

I am going to wait a few days to update my iPhone. Now that school is winding down, I don't need to consolidate my inboxes quite as badly as I did two months ago, so I'll let any kinks get worked out before I jump in. Glad to hear it's going well, though. It looks cool.

I am updating right now, and I am excited!

So the IT/video conference I'm at this week is giving away an ipad tomorrow. Wish me random-drawing-ma!

Also iPhone battery-ma, since I forgot to bring a charger. (I could conserve power by getting of b.org, but honestly who are we kidding.)

All is well that ends in pizza.

So, with that group, the chances are slim to find someone with a charger to borrow.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have upgraded. I am happy to provide some tips or suggestions. I did not download the update through itunes, I downloaded it directly from the server.

Some of the games I use are having problems with IOS4 (we rule, godfinger) and gmail exchange does not work well, so I had to add my gmail via imap.

I am thrilled with the "folder" system AND the fact that I can use an external bluetooth keyboard with the iphone. Multitasking isn't really working for most apps right now, but I hope that functionality comes.

FYI:

Google Voice is now open to anyone.

I just set up a second one to be local to my mom's house and forwarded any calls to it directly to our phone here. Now she doesn't have to pay long distance to call us.

I may be subverting the intent.
