Der Darmstädter Notebook-Händler
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 3:39a Volker Weber
Sehr witzig: In den Kommentaren zum Samsung NC10 wurde mehrfach ein "Darmstädter Notebook-Händler" erwähnt. Das ist nicht ganz zufällig unser Sponsor für Dezember. Es freut mich ganz besonders, einen solchen Shop hier in der Nähe zu haben. Der hält nämlich nicht nur dem Preisvergleich mit reinen Internet-Händlern stand, sondern er ... [read] Keywords: |

Windows blues
Mon, Dec 1st 2008 6:23p Volker Weber
Today was Windows day. Tomorrow will be another one. If Apple would only make a NetBook that would run for five hours on battery. Windows XP needed 33 updates on top of SP3. I installed iTunes and MobileMe, so I could sync my calendars and contacts to ... Outlook 2007. ... [read] Keywords: apple

More Storm updates
Sun, Nov 30th 2008 4:22p Volker Weber
Less than two hours after posting my Storm update, there was a new package in my inbox: That's a good thing, since I was not too impressed by 0.70. I am hearing good things about the Verizon update 0.75 so this 0.76 drop should be better. Installing now: [read] Keywords: |

Storm updates
Sun, Nov 30th 2008 4:59a Volker Weber
Good news first: Ute expected to not like the on-screen keyboard, but she is doing fine with it. The bigger screen makes it easier to read long messages, and you can move from message to message by swiping horizontally. The iPhone does not let you do that. Bad news: I ... [read] Keywords: iphone

The Storm has arrived
Fri, Nov 28th 2008 5:10a Volker Weber
It only took a gentle reminder and today DHL delivered a small box to my door. It contained the retail package for the Vodafone BlackBerry Storm. The package was open, so I am not sure whether RIM attached a screen protection or whether that comes will all devices. I ... [read] Keywords: blackberry

Update your BlackBerry device software
Thu, Nov 27th 2008 6:23a Volker Weber
Go into Option/About on your BlackBerry. If it does not say v.4.5.xxx, you may be running outdated device software. Point Internet Explorer to www.blackberry.com/upgrade and let RIM check your device. 4.5 or later is so much better than 4.1 or 4.2 that you won't regret investing a bit of ...

No Storm at vowe's magic flying circus
Wed, Nov 26th 2008 6:59p Volker Weber
While RIM usually send the latest gear right away, I have not received a Storm. And last week I met a fellow journalist from a news service who just got his. I think I have an idea why RIM did not send one. Read David's scathing report. [read] Keywords: rim
