http://blog.iepchelp.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Wednesday, September 28, 2011. Saw some interesting news about the color Kindle "Fire" from Amazon. It's essentially a very slimmed down version of the iPad2. So, is it for you? Smaller / not as good a screen. Larger / best screen on market. 8gb - not alot of space. 16gb min - up to 32gb. Android market - 240k and growing - robust market applications. Apple - Massive application library over 500k. DOESN'T SUPPORT FLASH (Stupidly). Wifi only - no camera, no mic, no chatting online via voice or video.

IEPCHELP: Time for an iPhone?

http://blog.iepchelp.com/2011/10/time-for-iphone.html

Friday, October 7, 2011. Time for an iPhone? Has a nice little article comparing the base contract options from the big three cell phone services. For the business that depends on voice phone calls, the $240 more for Verizon is just the cost of getting good service. From experience Verizon works where the others don't, and hands down you know that is important when that call comes in for a big job that would ROI that $240 tenfold.

Tuesday, February 22, 2011. Web design and why its hard. I love hearing "my kid is learning web design - why should I pay your company to do it". Thats great. If your kid gets good, please give him my number. What most people do not understand is that just because you can change a tire on a car does not make you a car mechanic. Because your kid took body shop does not make him a master body-man capable of making the bat mobile out of a Pinto. If he does, though, ya please have him call. CFL Bulbs - Suck?
