Twitter Updates for 2008-01-15

  • just had his Macbook saved by the mag-safe adapter. Clumsy person walking by almost sent it to the floor. #
  • is ready for theAndBoom Macworld Keynote to begin. #
  • Watching the internet web slow to a crawl as everyone twitters and streams and blogs Macworld. Funny, I don't think this happens for CES... #
  • Now waiting for the Keynote traffic to die down so I can use Twitter and Ustream again. Not 2 impressed. TimeCapsule is most practical 2 me. #
  • @anothertomorrow: MW was what was expected, but no pleasant surprises. No 3G iPhone. No tablet. iTV was nice, but not my market. #
  • @Anothertomorrow: It's not impossible, but rethinking: they may be waiting for the SDK to sell a few more iPhones before they rev it. #
  • downloading iTunes 7.6, Quicktime 7.4, iMovie 7.1.1, FrontRow 2.1.2 #

the long goodbye with Verizon

While I'm not prepared to write about the full course of events here, yet, I want to make this quick post:

I switched from Verizon to AT&T Wireless. It's not been the most pleasant experience, but I am pleased to say that I've found out how to set some hidden settings on the LG CU515 and send my own created ringtones to it via Bluetooth. And I've confirmed what I heard from friends: you can use an AT&T Go-Phone as a replacement for your regular phone with no special unlocking needed. ($20 backup phone?)

More on this, and my attempts at unlocking the LG 515 later. (I've yet to try it, but I have the unlock code)
