I got an iPad. Shocking! I’d like to say that deb (who has some good app recommendations here) made me get an iPad, or that it was forced on me but that’s not really the case. I wanted one despite my efforts to not want one.
The iPad represents a shift towards a kind of computing [...]
I predict that the Kindle will support the increasingly-popular ePub format by year’s end.
There, I said it. (Though apparently I’m not the first to want this. There’s already some kind of app available that can do it natively called Savory.)
Whether it’s by third party app through Amazon’s recently-announced SDK or, hopefully, because Amazon includes it [...]
Watched some of the live stream from Engadget on the iPad announcement today. It was, as expected, a tablet shaped like a big iPod. It comes with wireless and it can hook up to a 3G network if you buy the big one. Notably, for me, were the things it didn’t do:

The following is an actual transcript of the process of trying to activate an additional receiver to my Bell ExpressVU TV satellite system. I have no idea if it worked or not. This is the third or fourth time I tried, the first being on the receiver itself. The second time failed because they don’t [...]
I was going to write a little thing about how fun the ngmoco game Topple was, maybe even with an accompanying screen shot, but the App Store is still ridiculously slow here.
Instead, I’m going to write just a little bit about monocultures and why they suck. When everything works, you can almost believe that owning [...]
At the risk of drawing the ire of the Apple Masters, and ridicules from people telling me to move to a real province, has anyone else on the east coast noticed an appalling lack of performance in the Apple iTunes Music Store lately? Searching for iPhone apps, music, and podcasts all sucks right now. Worse, [...]
