Hey. New board.

Depending on what you need to do you might be able to find a Chromebook for a pretty darn low price. That would be vastly better than a little keyboard like that on a phone for many uses.

Best buy has one for 150. [link]

Is anyone else having issues with iPhone podcast app sleep setting? This is the second time it's happened. I put on a podcast to fall asleep to, and set it to sleep at end of current episode, only to have it playing when I wake up several hours later. It works fine on my iPad, but that's running iOS8. The iPhone is the most up-to-date iOS.

What made it weirder, is waking to hear NoiseDesign talking to me (he had a guest appearance on The Cue podcast). No offense ND, it was just weird to hear your voice first thing in the morning.

I wonder if iOS 9.1 today will help that?

All is well that ends in pizza.

That reminds me. For those with iOS 9.x who miss the iOS 8 keyboard:

Go to to Settings > General > Accessibility > Keyboard and turn off the toggle for Show Lowercase Keys.

Any thoughts on this for my Mom's new computer? [link] Pretty basic use - but i also know that windows is going to continuously add patches which will slow int down. How will this work in four years when OS patches & App software upgrades nearly double the resources used. Is this hard disk fast enough for the long term?
