Result of frustration with iPhone 4

On Monday I called Eplehuset to hear what could be done about the defect iPhone 4 Home Button. Getting it fixed would cost me another kr. 1800,-, this after 18 months of light use! You may imagine my frustration on hearing about "Apple being known for its quality" on Macbreak Weekly today. Grrr!

So, yesterday, after considerable thought about how I would  take care of the few apps which only exist on iOS, e.g. Mindnode Touch, Momento, and a couple of others, I ordered a Galaxy Nexus Titan Sølv 16 GB from Telenor with a Kontant Abonnement (max cash, but lowest total price)


At the same time I ordered the LTE/4G Miniruter for kr. 99,- to go with my Mobilbredbånd199 data contract. This will let me use 'free' data wherever I take it  :)


So, I expect to receive both of these items in a couple of days time. They are already on the way by Special post.


Looking forward to experiencing Jelly Bean 4.1...

Power plug hell!

And these are the ones I use..

From Evernote:

A great app for the iPad, VNC to the iMac

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.
