These videos are very good and very interesting. And while I know they are sponsored by BMW, I suggest watching all of them. Enjoy

When I purchased my Intel iMac in February, I also purchased iWork ’06 with it. Half expecting them to say “Sorry, you need to purchase another copy,” I gave my rep my web order number and after a few minutes on hold was pleasantly surprised.
When I purchased my Intel iMac in February, I also purchased iWork ’06 with it. Problem is, now I need to restore my system using the restore media and I don’t want to loose my licensed copy of the software. I emailed the support team before the holiday in an attempt to find a resolution to my rather quickery problem. They wrote me back yesterday and suggested I call the Apple Care support line. Well, that’s exactly what I did today. Half expecting them to say “Sorry, you need to purchase another copy,” I gave my rep my web order number and after a few minutes on hold was pleasantly surprised. Rather than attempt to find the serial number they told me they were going to just re-order the software for me, at not additional charge, with standard overnight 🙂 All I have to say is, Apple, you ROCK!
Ground up mounds that didn’t look like teeth at all, a very faint shade of yellow none-the-less.I am still in shock for the realization that two of my perfectly good teeth are now stumps of nothing and can never be what they once were and had I know two of my teeth were going to be destroyed, I’m not sure I would have agreed.
After being asked nicely by my dentist for the last three cleanings, I agreed to allow her to extract my tiny baby tooth and make a bridge. This procedure involved first having the baby tooth extracted, next having my gum and jawbone surgically heightened and finally the bridge being placed. I got through the first and second steps without too much inconvenience or trouble, but today I had my temporary bridge placed.
I want to stop right here and say that my dentist never once made a big deal about any of these procedures being done. In fact, she told me it would make her happy to make the teeth look right. I felt very comfortable allowing her to complete the procedure.
Today I had my temporary bridge placed. I arrived at the dentist right on time and we got started right away. After being numbed up (which had become common practice since I had to be numbed up for the multiple appointments involved in parts 1 and 2 of this whole project), out came the drill. I laid back listening to my iPod as the dentist drilled away. At first, I thought she was just preparing the surfaces and making mounting points or something. After about 20 minutes, she was done drilling. I thought to myself, that was a long time, and as the thought passed through me, my tongue skimmed across the teeth. At first touch a shrill shock surged through my body. Where once I had perfect, while misplaced, teeth were rough gritty STUMPS! Trying not to freak out too much, as the doctor seemed like everything was going fine, I asked for a mirror to see what my teeth looked like. Horror shook my body when I saw what my perfect teeth had become. Ground up mounds that didn’t look like teeth at all, a very faint shade of yellow none-the-less.
I am still in shock for the realization that two of my perfectly good teeth are now stumps of nothing and can never be what they once were and had I know two of my teeth were going to be destroyed, I’m not sure I would have agreed. It almost feels like a part of me is missing now and I didn’t even know I was going to loose them. Another part of me thinks the dentist was unfair in not fully explaining what was at stake for this procedure.
While now, after doing a little research, I feel just a tad more comfortable it is still very weird. Take this as a warning. While a bridge may be necessary, if there are other options for your dental needs, take the time to consider them. I can never have my two teeth back and I don’t think anyone should feel the way I do about this.
In my normal browsing of the Blackberry website, I discovered that after last weeks announcement from Cingular, the 7130c was posted. What caught my attention was the fact that modem thethering is listed as an available option!! FINALLY!See for yourself: 7130c

So Microsoft made a statement last week about how the new Xbox Dashboard update would enable, among other things, background downloading, music not ending when ending a game and some other minor isues. Where the hell is the Dashboard update that was promised for the end of last week?

It should also sport a wide range of wireless email services, including: Good, MS Direct Push, Blackberry Connect (which I demoed on the Nokia 9300 and wasn’t too impressed with) an of course ExpressMail (powered by Seven).
All I have to say is, ABOUT FREAKING TIME. This phone was announced in 2005 and I saw a live version at CES in January, but it has sorta fallen off the radar since. Except for the FCC Approval, no news until today. Engadget is reporting that the Nokia Blackberry killer will be hitting states side soon. The device will supposedly not feature UMTS or Wifi (in the Cingular flavor), which is lame, but expected. It should also sport a wide range of wireless email services, including: Good, MS Direct Push, Blackberry Connect (which I demoed on the Nokia 9300 and wasn’t too impressed with) an of course ExpressMail (powered by Seven). One really cool thing about this phone though is that apparently there is a USB hardware profile to support Mass Storage device. Cant wait!
This is scary.
