milkcow How would you compare the experience between the touch screen and a real keyboard? I find the touch screen keyboards to be very hard to use and often unresponsive.

milkcow BlackBerry keyboard is great once you get used to it (the rule is use your thumbs), takes a while though. My advice is stay away from touch screen BlackBerry, the on screen keyboards are terrible, and I think they were only built to compete with iPhone, most...

milkcow I don't like the Storm, much better off with a Bold or Tour. The Storm has one feature and that's touch screen. iPhone is also a good phone, don't get me wrong, but for somebody who depends on Microsoft Exchange for my business, I find the wireless...

I do hear that phrase a lot. Smart people are dumb when it comes to love. Do you actually believe in it? I don't consider myself as a really smart guy but I'm sure I'm not dumb. And when it comes to love I do think and weigh...

milkcow I have to disagree in a way, mobile phone screens are very big nowadays. Maybe not BlackBerry, but iPhone, Nokia N97, Nokia 5800 and many others have large displays. Most of the new phones have QHD displays with 360 x 640 pixels. The N97 has a 3.5 inch...

Which would you rather have: an iPhone or a Blackberry cell phone? I know this is probably the most unoriginal question in the world, and probably has been asked several times in the past, but I'm just curious as to what you...

milkcow P.s. If you find some applications missing for BlackBerry, let me know and I'll talk to some fellow developers, maybe somebody feels like writing one (maybe even me).

milkcow Thanks for the tips. Yeah, Kama Sutra is something we looked into at some stage, but kinda just forgot about it. The hotel idea is something I'll definitely go for.

milkcow Very good point, I do use most of the features like surfing, chat, mail, etc, but that depends on personal needs. Most phones have features we never use, my phone supports video streaming for example, never used it and don't think I ever will. But regarding...

milkcow Technically, I know it's possible. Using a PCI ISDN TA connected to a computer, you can use the H.324M protocol to carry video over the phone line and this is the same protocol used in mobile phones. I know it's possible (at least on Linux) to set this up as...

milkcow Yes, it's definitely inconvenient. I am fortunate to have a BlackBerry with the MDS server in Fort Lauderdale. So all my internet access from the phone passes encrypted to the US, meaning Facebook works. But accessing only Facebook Mobile is still very...

milkcow Yeah, unfortunately I have to agree. Was just joking about the riot :-). I just wonder how Google managed to do it and Facebook can't, I know Google is like way big, but I don't think Facebook is a lot smaller, Facebook is a household name just like Google.

milkcow Oh, and SourceForge is also rather safe, open source software is usually safe because they can't hide anything and if they do you can download the source and see where the junk is and remove it.

milkcow Sure, McAfee is quite good, any of the major internet security type software should do the trick. But be careful next time, before you install some software, do some research on it. If it's free, try to find out how they make money out of it, or at least do...
