By John Barsodi, on July 27th, 2011 I routinely get asked by friends and family which SmartPhone they should pick up. This is always a difficult discussion as the Smart Phone industry of today, similar to the PC industry of the early 2000′s, is changing rapidly almost daily. I’ve decided to start a post that I will maintain – though I’m [...]
By John Barsodi, on March 14th, 2011 On Friday 3/4, I resigned from my current job as IT Systems Architect/Team Lead for our Systems and Messaging group. It was one of the more difficult decisions I’ve made in my ~12 year IT career. It’s hard to leave a company who has treated you well. In 4.5 years with them, I’ve been promoted [...]
By John Barsodi, on February 24th, 2011 You may have heard about a big launch today if you’re a Google Android fan… namely the Android Honeycomb powered Motorola XOOM. I was able to spend some uninterrupted hands-on time with the XOOM and got some fuzzy questions answered.
I’m not going to review the device in the traditional sense, but rather as a [...]
By John Barsodi, on December 31st, 2010 Well.. I run 1920×1200 resolution at home and 3 monitors at 1600×1200 at work… think I will strive for 2560×2048 and 1920×1200 respectively. ok that was lame.
I never make New Years resolutions because I’ve always thought they were pitfalls for failure and most of the time forgotten by January 21st. However, this year I have some [...]
By John Barsodi, on October 19th, 2010 I’ve been sitting on this topic for a blog [series] for quite sometime. I’m finally getting around to writing about it. By titling this series as “How not to..” I expect a backlashing from the fanboi’s of the internet to tell me how I’m wrong, regardless of which side of home plate they swing from. [...]
By John Barsodi, on October 18th, 2010 If you’re like me, you’re NOT an AT&T Wireless subscriber, but a AT&T U-Verse subscriber. I’ve been using the U-Verse mobile app on my work iPhone and personal iPad since it’s release, but have been waiting for the release of their Android client so I can use it on my Verizon DROID X. Well, AT&T [...]
By John Barsodi, on November 21st, 2008 Welp, today finally came…today as in the release date of the Blackberry Storm. I picked one up this morning at 0′dark 30AM. I was first in line and frooze my rear off in doing so, but it was worth it. So far I’m pleasantly surprised, it’s better than my expectations and I really like it. [...]
By John Barsodi, on September 12th, 2006 Tonight I picked up my new Blackberry Pearl(8100) by T-Mobile. I must say, having owned/used the Blackberry 5790, 6750, 7750, 7250, 7130, 7520, 8700, and now the 8100 – the 8100 is my favorite.
This phone feels solid and feels right in your hand and on a call.
Tons of new features offered for the [...]
