Hello My Fellow Midnight Munchers,Â
An interesting salutation? I hope you think so. By the end of this post, you will certainly understand why I chose to use it.
This past Saturday night, at approximately 11pm , I received a call from an old buddy of mine who asked me if I would like to go grab a cup of coffee at The International House of Pancakes (iHOP). Since my wife had already retired for the evening and my two feline owners of 15 years, Amy and Rosalie were clearly finding me annoying, I accepted his invitation. Read the rest of this entry »

Wireless Phones | Comments Off on Q & A: The Samsung Epix SGH-i907 Smartphone | April 3rd, 2009
QUESTION:
How easy is the touch pad to use when you configure it to act as a joystick-type control?
ANSWER:
The touch screen cannot be configured to act as a joystick. If you are referring to the Navigation Control, located near the center of the Epix, it may serve as either a mouse pointing device or a 4-way navigation control. Please be aware that the Epix features an optical navigation control. As a result, one merely swipes a finger across the surface of the control in order to navigate. Some find this interface a bit too sensitive to the touch while others, like me, find it to be the greatest thing since pockets. (Smile) Read the rest of this entry »

A colleague of ours was a few bites into her chicken salad the other day when she swallowed a bone more than an inch long. A couple of fast-acting diners performed Heimlich maneuvers, but the bone was too …
