iPhone 4 Antenna Problem

Apparently, the iPhone 4 is good at everything... except phone calls. Looks like Apple forgot to test the iPhone... while holding it. Ready for this? When you hold the iPhone 4, its reception steadily decreases until gone. "Gone" meaning no service. Someone's getting fired today.

iPad in Car!

iPad AWESOMENESS. Doug Broadhurst and Ted Lopez demonstrate the new iKit from Scosche in a Subaru STi. This one's got to be seen to truly be appreciated - Doug and Ted do a much better job talking about this than I would typing about it...

HP Slate: Game Changer?

"HP's Slate Device: A Full Mobile Experience - Introducing a full-featured device that is just as mobile as you are."

With USB, a memory expansion slot, AND a built in camera, Apple's iPad is already facing serious competition with HP's entry, the "Slate".

HP's not pulling any punches with the "Slate" and I'm bettin' Steve Jobs is kickin' himself right now for leaving out those oh-so-obvious obvious shortcomings.

Repartitioning a hard drive... for free.

Wow. What a FANTASTIC tool I just stumbled across!

So, my hard drive's free space was shrinking and had finally gotten to the point of impacting system performance. In short, we were teetering on the edge of DANGEROUS.

In the back of my mind I knew I had to do something and It dawned on me that I had a bunch of unpartitioned space on my drive but OH... THE HORROR!

It had been a while since I attempted a repartition but, let it be said now, the days of creating a boot disk, booting into some antiquated mystery DOS application fumbling about... well... those days are gone.

Enter Easeus.

How to:
1. Download and install the FREE Easeus Partition Master Home Edition (YES! FREE!)

2. When you open the app, you'll see rows representing your drives. Reight-click the drive you want to resize and select the "Resize/Move" option from the context menu.

Partition Master
3. Grab the right-side slider and drag it to the desired size.

4. Click the "Apply" button in the application toolbar.

Done.


Well done Easeus
I could not have been happier with the experience. Bravo to Easeus for creating such a speedy and easy application. If you need to repartition, this is the app.
