tech, gadget, and security blurbs

So I’ve been using the EVO 4G with CyanogenMod 6 Final and the CM6-Snapv8.2 Kernel, and it has been awesome.  I highly recommend doing the full root with the new ENG HBOOT so that you can get these two insane mods.  Now that 4G is creeping into Florida, I hope CM6 gets the necessary fix to enable the WiMax radio.  Other than that, it’s a great combination.  I use LauncherPro as my home screen manager, instead of the included ADW Launcher.  I’ve included a picture of it running on my phone after the break.  No HTC Sense, and that’s a good thing.

Just purchased an HTC EVO 4G for Sprint today at Radio Shack. I called around the Tampa area to all the Best Buys and Radio Shacks and finally found one in New Tampa that had one in stock. About an hour or so later, I had the phone in hand. I must say, this is quite an impressive phone and I have a feeling that I haven’t even scratched the surface of its potential so far.

Anyway, I felt like messing with my D90 again, so I snapped a few pictures. Unfortunately, I suck at photography. Pictures after the break.

UPDATE: Figures, the screen adhesive is faulty and I have the dreaded screen detachment in the bottom left corner.  Ugh. Read more

Decided to purchase the Deliveries app for the iPhone tonight to see how far it had evolved. I have been contemplating making my own app for free that does package tracking across mutiple couriers, but this is unnecessary after using the Deliveries app. Just check the screens after the break to see what I mean.

Finally got around to installing Windows 7 and VMWare Fusion 3.0 for my Mac.  So far, so good.  Windows 7 isn’t too bad; it’s actually just as the majority of reviews describe.  We’ll see how I feel about a month or so of use.  Anything has to be better than Vista.
