Thanks for the tip, ita !. I don't know if I need it, but I'm getting it.

So, I've got a laptop at the office. Despite having a lock, I have to take it home every night. Feh. And they are pretty hardcore with the computers, they don't want you to email documents to yourself at non company emails. Feh. I don't think I'll be using Dropbox any time soon. Although they seem to be okay with you printing stuff out. Guess that scanner will come in handy @@

What about thumb drives, Vortex? Or connecting to your home network?

Scanning documents is a pain. I still don't like OCR.

I don't know if I need it, but I'm getting it.

That totally seems like a good idea. I would if I weren't so pissy.

They don't like "non approved" thumb drives. And I can't put stuff on the iPad with one. I've got to download to the drive, then take to my home PC, then upload to Dropbox, then download to the iPad. Feh..

Vortex,

I have one of these and during my internet downtime for almost a day, that was the way I could transfer files from computer, iphone, and my wifi-only ipad.

I like it. That and goodreader app (for iphone and ipad) really make access awesome.

Oh, file transfer to iOS. I got nothing.

ita !, have you ever played around with Tasker? It's expensive for an Android app, but it is pretty amazing. I'm looking for cool things to do with it. Right now, I have it doing the following:

• it automatically turns on my ringer whenever I am near my house (within 50 meters or so, using Net location, not the more power-hungry GPS) between 8:00 am and 8:00 pm (since I often forget to turn my ringer on when home from work.)
• Along similar lines, it automatically silences my phone from 9:00 p.m. until 6:30 a.m and whenever I am at work.
• I can text myself with the command "tasker announce" and it will play American Idiot at the loudest possible volume.
• I can text myself with "tasker location" and it will silently turn on GPS, get the best fix it can, and send me an e-mail with the location.
• I plan to learn the phone number that I get a call from when my house alarm goes off, from my alarm monitors, and have it always ring when they call, regardlesss of the setting of the phone. I will set it up with a custom ringtone that slowly increases in volume to avoid too much embarrassment, but I never want to miss that call.

I am trying to think of other things I want to automate.

Oh, that's fantastic, Gris. That's exactly what I need.

I have a Fujitsu scanner that changed my mind on scanners and I am in love with it. I actually own two. My office doesn't even have a copier. We just scan, save, and print everything. One of these days, I mean to make the office paperless but we aren't quite there yet.
