Nifty Tiger feature

Here's a very nice little addition to Tiger's list of features. It hasn't received much publicity and gets only a very brief mention on Apple's list of features page, but I find incredibly useful and something to show off to your XP-using mates. When you define or change your password in yo

Mobile phone for 10.4?

Hi all I'm hunting for a new phone. Had a look at the Apple website, which gave me a list to look at, and a cool little table at the bottom which describes which brands offer the best compatibility - they are: - Nokia '60' series - Panasonic '60' series - Sony Ericsson P800, P900 and P910

Re: Mobile phone for 10.4?

Anybody used a Panasonic? Personally I'd steer clear of anything that's not a Nokia, Sony-Ericsson or Motorola, as they're the ones with the most experience building mobile phones. I've found the Sony-Ericsson T610 series to be quite good (BlueTooth Syncing), aside from an annoying and tota

I'll second that. The T630 is what I had (lost it on Friday) but when I get a new one I still have all my calendar, address book and bits and pieces backed up on my computer. So now I'm the hunt too, unfortunately. Now I'm really glad I went for it, otherwise I'd have lost everything. When I chec

I'm having a good run with my SE P910. It's the second one I've had. The first only lasted a day or two. Just wouldn't pair ­ a fault with the phone, but I received a replacement quick smart. I can say that it scores 3 out of 3 regarding your requirements. But it fails most people's 4th, that bein

Re: Mobile phone for 10.4?

I would add that too, that SE phones always work well with Macs (unless in Brett's case there is really something wrong with the phone). I'm presently using a k700i, but have used other SEs in the past. On 30/05/2005, at 2:46 PM, Brett Carboni wrote: I'm having a good run with my SE P910. I

Thanks Rod, Shay, Kelly and Brett for the thoughts. Based on what you've said so far, I'm leaning towards remaining in the Sony Ericsson camp, 'examining the K700i more closely. Rod, are you considering the K750i over the K700 as it has a better battery life and smaller size? I wonder i

Re: Mobile phone for 10.4?

From what I have been told by others on this list, the K750i is the 700 on steroids :-) Better camera, battery life and the opportunity to have up to 2Gig storage space. For me, that could *almost* eliminate carrying around an iPod Mini and my 2 Megapixel Canon IXUS camera (although t

Re: Mobile phone for 10.4?

I'd like to throw my 2 cents in. I've been using a Z1010 from 3 for a while now. The Bluetooth works perfectly, iSync loves it, I can connect to 3's data services at insane speeds (for a mobile) using Internet Connect and the Sony Ericsson 3G modem scripts. The Z800i is pretty much exactly the ph

Hi, when buying a new printer, they sometimes include a serial to USB converter. I've had a couple, but now just chuck them. If someone has one somewhere that they haven't thrown away, that would be useful. They are just a small green object. cheers, Susan. On 30/05/2005, at 6:00 PM, Robert
