Hello Everyone,

Now that I am beginning to use Windows 7 more and more, albeit the Beta version, the next logical step is to begin synchronizing my Samsung Epix SGH-i907 Smartphone, or any other Windows Mobile wireless device for that matter, in the new Microsoft environment.

Sound simple?  (Smile)

Of course, if the process were too strait-forward, too simple, then it would not have the time-tested and never-wavering stamp of Microsoft.  (Even Bigger Smile)  Read the rest of this entry »

Hello, My Fellow Windows 7 Early Adopters,

Hello Fellow Windows 7 Early Adopters,

While I love using my new Acer Aspire One Netbook, wirelessly, on my home WiFi network, one thing I do not enjoy is the number of steps it takes to disable or enable the Netbook’s wireless adapter. 

Yes, yes, I know; the Aspire One has a hardware switch to power on and off the wireless radio but, and I am not sure why, it is not as snappy as using the Windows 7 interface.  Read the rest of this entry »
