All is well that ends in pizza.

We have some plasma monitors at work on the walls displaying stats on calls incoming and open tickets. They are starting to show some image burn-in.

It's weird, but most people don't use them to display fairly static images.

There's also a few weird issues, one of which is that high altitude negatively affects plasmas but not lcds, but that's probably not an issue for you, although it is for me.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I need to get a new cell phone and am debating the pros/cons of various models. I've been drooling over the iPhone since the debut.

I'll probably have to give in to my techie/gadget fascination and get an iPhone. The worst part will mean shifting back to AT&T as a carrier. I don't know what I'd get otherwise.

Anyone have a recommendation on a good cell phone?

Hey. New board.

Whoever has the crashing Treo (sorry still browsing on the kindle in nowhere, LA and can't easily scroll back) are you using a 650 or what? Because my 680 has never crashed in 10 months, though my 650s were horrible... Maybe upgrading your Treo is the solution. And Tom, is there Missing Sync for Leopard? I can't stand iSync for Palms.

My treo 755p never crashes either.

i'm waffling between upgrading to the blackberry pearl or the treo 680. pros? cons?

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

So I'm beginning to see the treo, blackberry or iPhone as the logical replacement for my phone. I think all 3 will require changing carriers. Not a big deal, we just have to make sure the carrier signal can reach husbands job. (one of the reasons we left AT&T to start with)

You can play with my iPhone and check it out when I see you in January.

You just want to drool over my technology. I know how you are.
