Review - VirtualBox
3.0.2.49928 (Jul 10, 2009)

I got the same error while installing. I'll up my rating when its fixed.
Review - Microsoft Windows XP Mode
1.1.7112.1 Beta (May 8, 2009)

This is a great idea. To bad we can't play 32bit games, but no virtualization can't run 3D graphics. We're on the way to 64 bit and thats what matters.
Review - easy PC texting
2.3 Beta (Dec 3, 2008)

I like the idea and if it were free I'd use it, but since its pay I can go through my Sprints website to do basically the same thing. Its a little more of a hassle but its free. Plus Yahoo! Messenger can do something similar as well.
Review - ZoneAlarm Extreme Security
7.3.040.000 Beta (Jun 11, 2008)

The question is, is this going to just be free for the beta or free forever?
Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows (v2)
2.0.0.14 (Apr 16, 2008)

darthbeads - for one thing Maxthon is one big plug-in of sorts. Its a skin for MS IE (but it is a good skin, has some good finctions and I use it sometimes).

why hello there - I agree with you, and I think the way Mozilla can fix this is by looking at the top plug-ins (TabMix plus, All-in-one sidebar, Google browser sync (or foxmarks), Adblock plus, and NoScript) to name a few and just put those functions in the browser. I think if they did this they could optimize the browser better which will make it load in faster (also you wouldn't have to load in all the plug-ins which takes longer), which would also save in memory usage. Will they do this, probably not.

All we can hope is that FF 3 and 4 use up less memory to make up for the memory the plugins use. Maybe Mozilla should quality control the plug-ins better and make sure their optimized for FF better. Maybe they should have a plug-in system that integrates the plug-ins better into FF, incorporating the code better into the browser instead of something that just plugs into the browser loosely.

Dealing with Apple is like being in a communist country accept Apple doesn't kill people that don't agree with them.
Comment - Are cell towers ugly? Ericsson may have an alternative
2.0.0.14 (Jun 17, 2009 - 8:15 PM)

I like it. If it catches on then areas like Beverly Hills may actually get cell coverage. If Ericsson is smart they'll let areas order them in different colors and maybe even have different outter looks instead of just the triangle. Even so they look pretty nice, but can't tell much from a picture, it could look pretty cheap in person. Anything is better than those ugly towers though. I wonder when a company will build a tower within a building, maybe make it look like a corner? Or a flag pole...which is a good idea actually.

Microsofts conference was definitely exciting. The only thing it was missing was a 360 handheld. Maybe next E3.
Comment - Palm post-Pre: One handset won't cut it
2.0.0.14 (Jun 1, 2009 - 7:06 PM)

I've been with Spint for a few years and before that I was with Cingular. Sprint in CA is better than AT&T (I have friends still with AT&T and they get more dropped calls than I do). Sprints customer service in the past year has been so much better than before. AT&T I hear their customer service is pretty bad. Verizon I hear their customer service is ok, and their service is on par with Sprint. Sprint can make it back, hopefully people will go with Sprint and the Pre and see that Sprint has gotten better and spread the word around.

The one thing I see with Verizon is LTE they're going to have to switch to GSM. They could have the same problem that AT&T had when they went from TDMA to GSM if they try and go full on and let their CDMA service dwindle. Only time will tell, so we'll have to see.

I'm rooting for both Palm and Sprint because I think they both deserve a chance.
