PC World Confirms AT&T Network Slow

PC Magazine's Blog has a post about the lack of speed in AT&T's 3G network. I am shocked that it is so slow in San Francisco too. I can accept Los Angeles, because AT&T has always been crap here but not SF. What gives? Link Here.

My 100th Post "Wicked Cool"

I hit the century mark. There are lots of things I can say, but I will use my 100th post to highlight one of my favorite blogs on the internet, Stuff White People Like. It's Wicked Cool.

Now there's a phrase I would never be caught saying, "just sayin."

One Month with the iPhone 3G

Greg: "You have two phones."

Me: "Yes I do. I am not giving up my Blackberry."

Greg: "But you can get a Blackberry with AT&T."

Me: "Yeah but I have a Verizon Blackberry. It has much better service."

Greg: " Oh."

That sums up my experience with the iPhone 3G so far. After a month of regular use I find it harder and harder to give up my Blackberry. The Verizon network has a stronger signal, in about a month 3G will be available in the United States and I will most, likely update my Blackberry Curve to a Blackberry Bold with 3G. (See picture above.)

The iPhone is like a sports car, an Italian sports car, it gets a lot of attention but its not a very good phone for everyday use. Not a daily driver you'd take to Costco. On August 19, 2008 Apple release a 2.0.2 firmware update for the iPhone 3G, signal strength improved but my voice calls still drop inside my house.

The Safari Browser is limited. Apple should allow Flash to work. I think I will hold my breath until there is a 2.1 firmware update. After a month of good use the Blackberry is still a better phone, the Blackberry Bold may have a better browser. I will let you all know. It will be available for AT&T in September and in January 2009 for Verizon.

Tropical Storm Fay and Me

I live and work in Pasadena, California, but my sales territory includes Florida. Yesterday most of the state was shut down due to Tropical Storm Fay. So I had a "Hurricane Day." Similar to a snow day, offices and schools were closed. Most of my contacts were unavailable. Thankfully everyone is safe and there were strong winds and lots of rain to report.

I was able to leave the office early. Hurray. I even got a chance to play Warcraft.

iPhone Firmware 2.0.1

Fixed a lot a problems for me, especially intalling updates to software. It made typing on the iPhone easier. I recommend that everyone should download it if they haven't already.
