From Evernote - My Air Notes notebook

From Evernote:

The first test from Evernote worked ok, so I have made a blog notebook and will experiment a bit more, or until Google gets an iPad Blogger app in the store..

Testing on iPad

There being no specific app for Blogger, I'm trying a direct post to see if it is usable. It will do in an emergency, but its all too small anvd grey!

The iPad arrived early..

Just a short place reminder.  Will be back with my feelings anon.

Why I did not choose a Samsung Tab 2

A couple of days ago I very nearly pressed the button to buy the above, but there were a few key things which stopped me:

Android's Bluetooth doesn't support Foreign character keyboards.

The screen resolution was not going to make reading ebooks easier for me.

I would have been unable to view iTunes video podcasts.

Two apps were a 'must' for me:
Momento, and Mindnode Touch, neither of which are available for Android. Otherwise, the majority of my most-used apps run on both platforms.

So, regretably I chose to increase Apple's disgusting margins once again.

I have a horrible feeling..

Yes, I do believe I am going to buy the new iPad later today. I have been checking out the apps I most use, and they don't take a lot of space, so I think the 16GB wifi model will satisfy my needs :)

More about Windows..

I was asked to help solve a wifi connection issue yesterday, and was very impressed with the Dell Latitude running Windows 7 Pro!

So, if Apple's next Macbook Pro 15" doesn't have ethernet or USB 3 ports I will seriously consider getting one of the above. For once it was nice to hear Andy on Macbreak Weekly ranting about the above possibility.

The trouble with Windows

My T91mt doesn't get used every day and every time I switch it on it takes an hour or so being updated!
Like today. All I wanted to do was install a very fast search app called Everything. That finished ages ago and still its only on 5 of 14 updates :(
Why do I keep it?
