Best Bluetooth Headset

I love my new T-Mobile Google G1 phone! That said, it has a horrible wired headset. One of T-Mobile's regional managers told me that the reason that the G1 has such a terrible wired headset is to gently pursued people to purchase a bluetooth headset.

So, I set out on a journey to find the best possible bluetooth headset. People that know me understand how much I despise bluetooth headsets. Nonetheless, if I had to purchase one, I wanted one that works well. Historically, bluetooth headsets have had less than stellar performance.

So, where did my research take me? To the ultimate in bluetooth headsets - the Jawbone. It has noise cancelling technology that is superior to any other bluetooth headset on the market. Ideally, the company would offer custom fitted earpieces but for now, this is as good as it gets.

Google G1

My Google G1 came in today. This is the best phone that I have ever used. Unlike the iPhone, the G1 syncs wirelessly with your Gmail, calendar, and other Google information. The technology is vastly superior to the iPhone in my opinion. That said, it is first generation technology. Android is certainly an exciting platform!

I love this phone!

Apple Advises Using Anti-Virus

Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Apple is now advising it's users to install anti-virus protection on their Apple computers. I would say that the vast majority of Apple users don't think twice about this. I know that none of my Apple computers have AVS protection. This could be the beginning of a paradigm shift for Apple.

Update: There is a correction to this situation. Apparently, the suggestion to use anti-virus with the Apple only relates to pre-OS X versions of their operating system. Mac users really don't need anti-virus.

Nikon D3X Released!

Nikon officially released the new D3x yesterday. It is by far the most advanced DSLR on the planet as of today. That said, at $8000, it is way overpriced. I am not sure who is going to buy this but at 24.4mp, it is pretty amazing. Give it a few months and the price will come down.

Pimp Your G1

Colorware announced that they will be making the Google G1 available in a rainbow of colors. They are charging $150 to paint your G1 or will sell you a G1 in your choice of colors for $725.

Perhaps I could get a G1 quicker if I ordered one from Colorware :-)

Why I Love Google

People ask me on a daily basic why I am a Google fanatic. I love Google! I love everything about Google. Why you might ask - because it works. If Google makes it, I probably use it. I even moved my domain to Google Apps. In fact, Google could charge me a lot more for their services and I would still use them.

So, why is this a big deal? Anyone who has used Microsoft products for any length of time knows exactly what I am talking about. We are tired of products that are not ready for prime time until the first service pack is released. Products that are often broken.

I am not alone. People are moving their digital lives to Google. The FAA is even moving their operation to Google Apps. Their CIO has expressed that one of his goals is to be a Microsoft free shop within the next five years.

Some people call me a 'Google Evangelist.' Thanks for the compliment :-)

Vaclav Klaus Slated to Lead the EU

You have to love Vaclav Klaus, the president of the Czech Republic. He is a 'take no prisoners' kind of guy. Mr Klaus will be the next president of the EU.

You may remember that Mr. Klaus is one of the few people, aside from Roy Spencer, that talks about global warming is a logical fashion. He once called Al Gore an “apostle of arrogance.”

To supporters, Mr. Klaus is a brave, lone crusader, a defender of liberty, the only European leader in the mold of the formidable Margaret Thatcher.

Mr. Klaus is certainly going to be interesting to watch. Trained as a free market economist, perhaps he can straighten out the EU.
