I received an iPad (64GB WiFi+3G) from my husband yesterday. You know, the day people queued at stores as early as 6am (according to Dion Wired Woodmead) when the iPad 2 went on sale. They had marked down first-gen iPads at crazy prices.
I will use the device for recreation, I honestly can’t see myself working from it. Maybe I’m old school but I prefer taking notes by writing in my Moleskine journal (I know, right?). Read more…
This post was written in response to a post on My Digital Life on what my top iPhone apps were. I’ve not included obvious apps like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, etc. In no order, they are:
1. Dropbox – free
Dropbox lets you sync files between your phone, laptop or PC. It is very handy when I don’t have my cable, I just stick files into Dropbox and it syncs to my Mac immediately. It supports Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone, Android, mobile web. Not sure about BlackBerry. It has a password feature for your phone which is cool. Read more…

Note the crappy Vodacom signal I pick up at home and other places.
Last week I bought a MacBook Pro, which I will be using full time at the office. Before I go on, I’d like to say that I had a very pleasant experience with Core, who I bought my Mac from. They updated all my software and loaded iWork for me. (They don’t do this for everyone, just media).
So anyway, the most important thing for me was getting all my email from MS Outlook to Mail. (If you Google this, you are most likely to come up with results that tell you you need to pay $10 for an app that does it). I did it, without paying for anything and thought I’d share the how-to, just in case you want to do the same someday. Read more…
