Over the years, we have had a endless list of handheld devices. In the big days of the Palm OS devices we had UX, NX and TH devices roaming around the office, matched to the way the person worked. One item most of us had on those devices was a back up of Wikipedia’s database. [...]
Amongst the many notepad app updates this week was myNotes!. You may recall, this is the notebook app that recognizes shapes and corrects them, switches from ink to type quickly and allows for everything to show up on one page.

For the last couple years, many of our team have experimented with pulling the ‘cable’ plug at home. This has been attempted with older Macbooks, Mac Minis (does anyone buy them for anything other than homemade DVRs?) and AppleTVs. A few played with Playstation III hardware… they can get their own blog. There was some [...]
