AT&T Starts BlackBerry Bold Employee Training

Monday, July 14th, 2008

According to several resources, AT&T has already started training their employees on the BlackBerry Bold.  RIM which is usually quite about new products before launch has offered much more insight this time.

With the BOLD prominently displayed on their website for a few

weeks now, and the WES announcement, could this be a change in how RIM will launch new devices in the future?

I am sure that I am not the only one waiting for this new device to hit the stores, so could it happen soon?

We have learned from the past that AT&T doesn’t start their training programs until a few weeks before launch. Seems the rumor is that the launch will be the last week of August or the first week of September.

My 8300 is shot, scratched lens, drool from my 10 month old son trying to eat it, numerous drops from waist high, and yet it still works perfectly. You really just can’t beat a BlackBerry when it comes to durability and the wireless synchronization it provides, especially when connected to our Hosted Microsoft Exchange and Hosted BlackBerry Enterprise Servers.

As you can see I’m super excited for this new device ( which I already have on order with RIM ).
SHIP IT ALREADY! :- )

G-Park for iPhone

Monday, July 14th, 2008

This cool new app from posimotion.com uses the GPS feature built into the new   iPhone to help you find where you parked your car.

Easy to use, simply press the “Park me!” button (You can also add notes if you wish).

When it comes time to find where you parked, simply hit the “Where Did I Park button.  This brings up google maps, and creates a turn by turn set of directions that will lead you right back to your car.

This app will also work on the legacy iPhone as well as the iPod Touch.

As of this writing no word on cost.

Turn a Business Card into an iPhone Stand

Friday, July 11th, 2008

One thing you’ll soon discover is that there’s no comfortable way to watch videos, as the iPhone doesn’t come with a stand. You’ll either have to hold it… or try to prop it up at a decent viewing angle.

OR - Fish a business card out of your wallet. Instructables shows you how to turn an ordinary business card into a damn good iPhone stand (it works quite nicely with the iPod touch, too).

Once you get the iPhone standing properly, make sure you checkout the new ActiveSync features, and wirelessly sync it with your Hosted Exchange 2007 Mailbox.
