After much diliberation witnessed by Mattbot in the DIAD, I finally bit the bullet and ordered the W600. My information search on the subject of iSync found me a workaround and reassurances from people in the iSync homebrewed-plugin world that the W600 should be pretty easy to get working.

Should be here in a couple […]

So I’ve found out that rebates on the phones I’m interested in last until tomorrow night. With that in mind, I’ve turned to other sources of information to try to help me make a decision between:
1) Buying the W600i with unknown iSync support (but a workaround!)

The ol’ gal is holding up well despite being mothballed for the better part of two years. With my contract up in […]

Well I had one of those moments today, you know where you push on the wrong side of a door and continue to walk forward and bang your head. Oculon artists produced this account of the action this morning:

I’ll skip my usual diatribe on putting some sort of eye level cue to let people know […]

Have you seen me?
Officials at Oculon world headquarters reluctantly disclosed what the rest of the world already knew, the company cell phone has been missing for days and officials at the embattled organization have been too embarrassed to ask for assistance.
