After a week of using the T-Mobile G1 – the Google Phone – today I give it back. I knew before trying it that it was junk. Playing with it was still fun. There are great features on this phone, but for the most part it’s a phone to leave behind.

We just closed on our fantastic new home. Celebration time!

@engine1589 Is that because the tow truck is super slow?
I like that favoriting tweets doesn’t result in having messages from that person/product pushed to me.
Day 1 of using the Plantronics Savi 740 headset… Insanely great product for people working from home who use a cell, VoIP, and vid chat.
