Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
(I am jealous of your 32GB)
I was going to go with the standard 16GB, but then I saw that Amazon is giving $50 off with all of the Samsung Galaxy Tabs, so I decided to splurge and get the bigger memory. Doesn't hurt, and could help if I start loading up lots of books and movies/tv shows.
I will keep books on my Nook and TV elsewhere, and just make do with 16GB. Hmmph.
Anyone here shopped at Monoprice? I saw them come up in a cheap cable discussion, and they seem golden.
I've used them many times. Their cables are not the highest of build quality - the optical cables I got from them are kind of annoying to bend and tend to come out of the devices they're connected to, but work great when not jostled, and I got several mini-plug to mini-plug cables to connect devices to Aux jacks in rental cars, all of which died pretty quickly, while the bright pink one we got at Radioshack for maybe double the price is still going strong. But their HDMI cables have been good to me, and I've used them for speaker and TV brackets happily in the past. So basically, I've got mixed feelings.
Can anyone tell me why my iCloud doesn't reconcile with my iPad and iPhone? I thought that if I updated on one, it would automatically update on the other. I updated a bunch of my contacts on the phone, but it hasn't translated to the iPad.
I'm having the same problem with my Safari bookmarks, Vortex, so maybe there is a problem with iCloud (it's worked for me fine before) or it's very slow or something. I actually spent significant time trying to fix it today, and thought it was okay, but now it is not again...
I just started reading a book on my Kindle Touch while eating dinner. I thought it would be complicated and scary, but it actually worked out really well! I could lay it on the table and then turn pages by tapping with my clean left hand. It was actually easier than reading a real book while eating!
I thought it would be complicated and scary
When you say scary...
I mean extreme fear of getting it dirty and ruined and it malfunctions and explodes.
Don't feed it after midnight.
Yes, I can see how you might think that.
