Jilli, Zazzle has stuff that Cafepress doesn't, but for black messenger bags, you want Spreadshirt [link]

Ooh they have charcoal grey too. Based on my experience, anything's gotta be better than Cafe Press.

This is from last week, but it made me laugh:

CUPERTINO, CA—Only a month after the much-heralded announcement of the iPhone, Apple CEO Steve Jobs confirmed that his engineers were already working around-the-clock on the touchscreen smartphone's far-superior replacement. "We looked at [the iPhone's] innovative user interface, the paradigm-shifting voicemail, the best-in-class mobile browser, and we realized we could make all that seem ridiculously outdated by the time the product becomes available to customers in June," said Jobs, who described the project as "Apple reinventing the iPhone." "When the second-generation iPhone comes out this fall, we want iPhone users to feel not just jealous, but downright foolish for owning such laughably primitive technology." Jobs also hinted that the second iPhone device would not be compatible with existing Mac computers, third-party peripherals, or any future Apple products.

Outlook was corrupted so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it.

Now when I try to open it it is telling me that files are missing, and that it can't open the outlook window. So I guess I need to recreate the default outlook files in the right directories.

T Solved

Used mail to figure out where outlook was searching for outlook.pst - apparently the user had moved this to her home directory and then deleted it.

I have bluetooth questions.

Reading up on it informs me that there's a master/slave hierarchy, with each master controlling up to seven slaves. This control involves being a source of reference for band-hopping (to reduce interference), etc.

My phone can only connect with one bluetooth device at a time. My computers can connect with more (I mean, the mouse doesn't give out when I'm transferring a file from my phone or PDA), and I'm assuming this isn't via slicing.

So, my computers can be masters, and my phone can only be a slave. In a multi-master-capable piconet (two computers and a phone)...well, am I even forming a piconet at this stage?

Also, what's the overhead in being able to control more than one device simultaneously? Will a phone readily be able to use Bluetooth to connect to my Mac and a headset at the same time?

So, what's an .est file? Or, more precisely, what do I need to read it?

I have a contractor who sent me some maps (I think) as .est files because they claimed they couldn't PDF them, and I don't have whatever it is I need to read them.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Possibly a "Microsoft Streets and Trips" file? That's the only thing that seems like it might be a map, though it seems like a very home-oriented file, not really for professional use. Information found here: [link]

As for what you need to read that, if it's what it is, MS Streets and Trips is $40 without GPS. I find it very hard to believe they can't find a way to make a PDF out of it, using one of those PDF print drivers that I know must be out there, if nothing else.

So, what's an .est file?

Filext.com gives three options [link] of which the most likely looks like Microsoft Streets and Trips.

eta: x-post!

Balls. How annoying.

Suela, I had MS&T, and those files can be saved in HTML format. It loses the metadata from the est file, which is essentially the ability to get information about rest stops, restaurants, gas stations, etc. on your route, but it will give you the map and the directions that you need. Might be worth asking them to send it in the other format.
