Have you ever Wondered what kind of Tech User you are?

by WarStoke on May.20, 2009, under Site News

well i came across this quiz by a research company and well i think its pretty on target this is what it says about me:

You are an Digital Collaborator

If you are a Digital Collaborator, you use information technology to work with and share your creations with others. You are enthusiastic about how ICTs help you connect with others and confident in how to manage digital devices and information. For you, the digital commons can be a camp, a lab, or a theater group – places to gather with others to develop something new.

Try it your self and let us know what it says you are

NetBook Lawsuit

by WarStoke on May.20, 2009, under Site News

There is an article in the march issue of information week that ill be honest i didnt read tilll i woke up at 5am this morning lol
that says that a person who bought a netbook had a bill over 5k for overages and is sueing radioshack and att. Now i love to hang out in the electronics stores near by while friends and famlily hit the clothing and shoe stores and i have read those brochures about that data plan and to be honest in my various jobs ive sold aircards for a cellular provider before
but really its in the brochure and on the sign and you are told that if you go over that 5gb data coverage that yes you will get hit with overage charges of about 3cents per kb
these plans are not meant as replacements for regular internet providers
and honestly if you are only using your computer for email and general web browsing you wont hit that 5gb limit easily
at least i dont normaly cross that unless i get addicted to a online tv show that month
5GB=5000MB=5120000KB
the average web page loading on a site like mine uses around 100KB per page with no cacheing of the wallpaper etc
but lets say its 150KB on average for most sites
that would be over 34000 web page views
now i know from a source that when the sell those connections most sales associates will tell you that its not in your best interest to run programs such as limewire or kazaa since they will eat your connection
i have seen lime wire while not downloading anything at all and nothing in the library using a full 100KB/s
to get a 5k bill that would be about 10gb ontop of your 5gb in plan
now should they offer an unlimited plan as well i would like to see one
att and sprint should i think offer an unlimited dataconnect plan for say 110 or 120 id pay that for truely unlimited highspeed internet every where i could conceivably take my laptop or netbook (actually if att would get 3g in my area i would still get the netbook as ive heard rumors of a 100$ cap on data connect overages comming in the near future)

Got a New HTC Touch Pro

by WarStoke on May.19, 2009, under Gadgets

i have to say that the only down side to this phone so far is the battery life
ive replaced the TouchFlow 3d with spb mobile shell 3.0
the result is a fast dynamic phone

this video by someone else shows a lot of the cool features of the tp
if you want to get one for upgrade with sprint head to radioshack its cheaper on upgrade than sprint.com

Ive Ordered a Cradel/ Battery Charger for the phone from a person on ebay and once it arrives ill post a review for you folks

Eve as addictive as warcrack yes or no

by WarStoke on Apr.26, 2009, under Gaming, News, Site News

well sad to say but since about 2weeks ago i started playing eve online its a wonderfully complex game with a very detailed and realistic approach to a space sim
and i do think that its very addictive
almost as addictive as world of warcrack
unlike most other mmos ive played in eve almost everything is manufactured by players from the ships you fly to the blueprints for making ammo
now you do get loot from npcs as well but 75% of the items for sale on the market are made by players who have either mined or bought the minerals from miners blueprints can be either recovered from npcs or researched or copied
its a very cool game
if you want a 21 day trial instead of the 15 day they give you register and and post here and ill send you a 21day invite
