Time for a little more gadget geekery here on DesertDefender.com. Looks like there are now a couple different android based tablets available for purchase in the US. The first one was the Augen GenTouch which has a 7″ screen and is available at KMart for $150. In my opinion its no so impressive so I’m [...]

It Makes Me So Mad…

Jay G points us to an app available for Android and iDontmakecallswhenyoureholdingmephone that lets us keep tabs on our congress critters. He and his friend also point out that it’ll do a good job of making you angry. (Really, what in congress does not make you angry?) Technically, it is a pretty slick app and [...]
A Little More Droid

Just a quick run down on what happened at today’s event: Android 2.2 (Froyo) released to the Android Open Source Project. (This means source code is available to developers) All Verizon “Droid” devices will receive the 2.2 update Droid X/Droid 2 will launch with 2.1 and update when 2.2 goes live. (Knowing Verizon this will [...]
These ARE the Droids You Are Looking For

I’ve had my Droid since February. It is not a phone. It is not a smart phone. Its a companion of sorts. “Lets ask Droid” has become a common phrase in my home – or when we are out and want to know something. I’m connected – to everything. Work and personal email accounts along [...]
Google I/O – Android – OTA Goodness

I’m going to stray away from the general theme I have on this site, and post about something else that interests me: Google products. I really like most of the products that Google has released. I like how non-restrictive they are. I like how they are constantly sticking it to Apple. Over at TechCrunch, you [...]
Apple Introduces the iPad Nano??

As a bunch of koolaid drinkers line up to get the new Apple iPad today, I can’t help but sit back and laugh. I already have one. Its called the iPod Touch. I’ve had my Touch since Christmas, and I can’t find a use for it. It plays music – so do my computers and [...]
Android 2.1
Posted in Gadgets, tagged Droid on March 31, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
I have been running the 2.1 version of the OS for about 10 hours now. It is great. If any of you have a MotoDroid, run this with the Helix Launcher (version 1, don’t get v2) and you won’t regret it. It features Live Wallpapers, a new gallery, multitouch and some other minor updates.
Now Microsoft and Apple free. Well almost. I am running Linux mint on both of my personal machines, though I keep the laptop in dual boot config with Windows for work reasons; but I will rarely need it. I also now have all my music on my Droid and no longer need my commIpod touch. [...]
Apple maxIpad

Time for me to jump on the bandwagon and get in the seemingly obligatory iPad post. Because of the ridiculous name in conjunction with its great list of missing features, I think this thing is going to be a real winner. [sarcasm off] Apple, wtf are you thinking? No multitasking? No Flash support? No Camera? [...]
