No Internet
May 21, 2008 – 8:06 pmIt sure is a shame when one doesn’t have the internet. But thats why you haven’t seen me post in a while. I’m jobless, so cannot afford to have the internet, except on my BlackBerry, which I am grateful for. I’m posting this from a friend’s computer.
If anyone wants to pay my internet bill for me, or donate, your more than welcome to. 
I’ll be back soon

So I’m trying to get back into the whole Photoshop thing, and it’s trying at first, but worth it in the end. A few years ago I used to make space scenes, and now am slowly getting back into it. This image I did tonight in about 5 hours. The original version can be gotten here from my flickr page.

Jott reply problem fixed!
April 3, 2008 – 7:19 pmA few days ago, I downloaded the Jott application for my Blackberry, only to find out that it didn’t work when attempting to reply to an email.
Shree from Jott contacted me that day saying he wanted to help. A few emails back and forth and here we are today. I wasn’t going to share why it didn’t work and how simple it was to fix, until I saw in my statistics that some other people have had the same issue and we’re scouring the web looking for an answer. Look no further folks, it’s easy:
- Go to Options on your BlackBerry
- Advanced Options
- Applications
- Scroll down to Jott for BlackBerry
- Hit the BlackBerry Menu button
- Select Edit Permissions
- Make sure everything is set to Allow (In my case, Interactions was set to Custom, which was incorrect).
That’s all you have to do after installing Jott for BlackBerry! Apparently there was a goof up somewhere and the program is installed that way.
By the way, the program is installed with the speakerphone option turned ON, and the volume of the ladies voice will probably do some damage to the speakers if left on continuously. It doesn’t let you adjust the volume either. Hit the BlackBerry Menu button and turn Speakerphone off so she can quietly whisper in your ear instead of alerting the whole neighborhood.
Anyway hope this helps, I’ll be playing with the application a bit more to test out its capabilities.

Sophisticated Full-QWERTY BlackBerry Curve 8330 Delivers Uncompromising Communications, Rich Multimedia Features, VZ Navigator and Broadband Speeds
Earlier today my eyes glazed over and I began to drool, over that press release. The new Verizon 8330 Curve is so sexy that most likely it’ll be at the front page of every BlackBerry blog and website for a long time. Until perhaps we get those cool touchscreen BlackBerry’s. Verizon is looking at a release date of sometimes in May 2008.

An additional $100 credit toward the purchase of the handset is available for customers who sign up for qualifying voice and data plans at the time of purchase. Customers who purchase a Verizon Wireless Nationwide voice plan can also subscribe to the E-Mail and Web for BlackBerry plan for an additional $29.99 per month while those opting for a data-only plan can pay $34.99 per month for unlimited e-mail and access to the Internet.
I just wish I could get my hands on one of these puppies.
