Hello Everyone,

I hope you like this approximately 30 minute episode of the Beyond Midnight radio drama.

This episode, entitled “The Room” is complete with the original broadcast commercials.

I decided to publish this episode as a Candle Shore podcast because I know that as you listen to it, you will find yourself falling into your inner consciousness.

Listen to this episode either on your computer, MP3 player or, as I do, on your mobile phone and always remember.

Enjoy,

Question:
SO I’ve read over all the steps and instructions for the upgrade to 6.1 and feel comfortable with things so I think i can handle going through the process. But I’m not sure what exactly i need to download if I were to go to the download link which is shown on the Samson site page with the instructions. It said to click the link and then click the file set-up.exe i believe that’s supposed to be on the page which I was rerouted to. But I’m not seeing anything. I see a few files but I’m not sure if I need to download all of them or only one of them, and if i need only one, which one to get?

Hello Everyone,

In an effort to make the documentation for Code Factory’s GPS software solution, Mobile Geo, a little more manageable, I have adapted and reformatted the Mobile Geo user manual in a way that I hope you will find easier to use; for example, I have removed all of the tables.

You may download the Mobile Geo list of commands in MS Word, plain text, HTML, or US Braille format.

Question:
Why do you say to buy from an AT&T Wireless corporate store and not an authorized reseller like Best Buy?

Answer:
The answer to this question is much too nebulous to distill down into a few sentences.  Suffice me to say that, where a novice customer is concerned, it is sound advice, to be sure.

Question:
I’m glad you kept telling me to read the directions.  I do web design, and know how computers can be a pain.  I also know how to take the cim card out, but will i get a cim card if i buy the phone with out a contract?  Read the rest of this entry »

Hello Everyone, 

I am so happy for those of you preparing to purchase your first mobile Smartphone. 

As far as I am concerned, there are few things more thrilling than buying a new mobile phone, except of course getting ready to eat a pound of crispy bacon.  (Smile)

The following is an answer I posted to a mailing list in response to a request for suggestions on how best to purchase the Samsung Blackjack II Smartphone from AT&T Wireless.

Even though my answer is skewed towards the purchase of a BJ2, it is equally as valid for purchasing any wireless Smartphone, for the first time.  Read the rest of this entry »
