TomTom 910 Working With 8100 4.3.1.14

I know this is something a number of people have been hoping to hear - The Blackberry 8100 from T-Mobile can work with the TomTom 910 GPS system in data mode. I had my 910 paired up to my bluetooth...

Interesting note

I'm also going to start a new thread about this subject, just to make it easier for people to search on - but I discovered today that 4.3.1.14 actually works with the TomTom 910 data services without...

I feel like I must be the oddball one here. The Pearl's one of the best feeling phones I've ever had, only my Motorola E815 came close. And the camera lens on that just spontaneously broke one day,...

Why WiFi?

I just got a new Sprint PPC-6700 from my workplace, and let me just say this... I don't see the point to WiFi on a cellular phone. Even if the WiFi on the PPC-6700 worked perfectly, you're not going...

That's rather odd, seeing how my phone spends more than half the time I use it on a Cingular tower or another. Seems to me that at least in this area (Northern Nevada) they share towers.
