No real Blogger app for iPad

I'm writing this with the iPhone app, but there appears to be no option to double its size like other iPhone apps.

Yesterday I had quite a session copying the Handy Safe Pro database from my iMac to the new Google Nexus.. should have been easy - 3 files only - but first I had to learn the trick of loading the Dropbox files 'offline' on the Nexus. One can do this by making them favourites! This makes the files available in a cache file, then it was a matter of moving the files to the Epocware folder, replacing the current ones. I was almost surprised that it worked after all that! It was such a finicky job moving files around with the file manager I was using.

Not too happy with Blogger! It just crapped out after I appended a new paragraph saying how happy I am with the ZTE performance vs tethering.

More learning..

One more thing I learnt this morning was how to login to the ZTE LTE/4G Mobilruter via a browser, change the admin name from 'admin', then change the miniruter password from the long weird one found under the device, to one that is easier for ordinary users to enter..

Must say I'm pretty happy wth the device's performance out here in the sticks ;) 2Mb/s down and 1Mb/s up, which is better than the speeds I get while tethering either the iPhone or Android devices. Its small enough to drop in a pocket so I have mobile data wherever I go.. only kr.199,- month, no limits.

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!
