    Google WiFi

    I wonder if Google will be setting up free city-wide WiFi for every city they have offices in? I hope so, because they are going to be opening an office in Phoenix soon!

    VS 2005 Doesn't Seem to Work with ActiveSync 3.8

    I was all excited to try out the new Compact Framework 2.0 stuff with Visual Studio 2005. I wrote a little web browser app and tried to deploy it to my Pocket PC and got a nice error:

    The current version of ActiveSync is not supported. Install the latest version from www.microsoft.com.

    The latest version of ActiveSync I can find is 3.8, which is what I have installed. Is anyone else seeing this problem? Am I screwed because I had the Beta 2 bits installed on this machine at one time?

    Logitech mm50 Speakers

    My wife recently got me the Logitech mm50 speakers for my birthday. I can't believe how good they sound for their size. They run on a rechargable battery and allow you to "dock" your iPod right into them. When the unit is plugged in to the wall outlet, it will even recharge your iPod. Surprisingly, they put out a very decent level of bass. There is even a remote included. It doesn't seem to work real well from more than about 10 or 15 feet, but that's enough to keep you from getting up off the couch to skip tracks.

    Lame Product Alert

    For $9.95 + $0.99 shipping, you can get an Earbud Clip. How is that much different than doing this:

    There, I just saved you $11.00!
