Tracy Porter Interception vs Colts HD (Superbowl)

Wondering about the Super Bowl this year? The win came thanks to an offense that found its rhythm in the 2nd Quarter of the game, came back from a 10-0 deficit (tying the biggest comeback every) and decided to win the game.

But here’s the key play. The Saints win the Super Bowl with a play that, in some way, defines their season — Tracy Porter intercepts yet another world-class quarterback and he returns it for six.

Update: Living with My Hero

Time flies! I’ve had my Hero about two-and-a-half months, now, and, for the most part, I’m enjoying using it. I’ve found it’s a much better e-mail machine than my Blackberry Pearl was, and I enjoy the on-screen keyboard more than I did the two-letters-per-key approach of the Pearl. I enjoy the apps and find that I’m using the phone to pass the time, access vital weather information and for great maps when travelling — another serious advance over my Blackberry.

(I type mostly in portrait mode, oddly, but that’s probably because the Hero is slow when switching to Landscape.)

The problems are easy to identify — speed and battery life. With all the discussion in the past few weeks about the iPad’s lack of multitasking, I sometimes pine for that problem with my Hero; between the fact that it runs background apps and some of those apps don’t even have a Quit option (quality varies widely) I’ve found that the Hero can slow down significantly, to the point where background apps can interfere with your ability to make or answer calls. That’s annoying.

HTC Sense is pretty, but I’m hoping an update (rumored to be happening soon) will speed it up. If not, I’m tempted to figure out if I can remove it and run a more basic Android interface; my experience is that the widgets are so slow to update that I end up opening applications anyway. The HTC Mail app is so slow that I’m not using K-9 Mail for IMAP access to my work account; the weather widget is so slow that I just launch The Weather Channel app, which is actually really fast.

It’s really pretty annoying to get toward the end of the work day and realize that my phone won’t make it into the evening; I’ve got a charger at the house and at my desk, but if I forget to plug it in, I’m in trouble. Recently when travelling I had charged the phone before my afternoon flight, had it off for the five hours I was on a plane; and still the battery was gone by the time I was at baggage claim at 11 p.m.

Not perfect, more work to be done, and the updates aren’t coming that fast. Having said all that, it’s a remarkable device and the OS experience is certainly serviceable. The “app wars” are on, although I was more than pleased when Issuu (m.issuu.com) came out with an Android version of their “flipbook” reader first — now you can get the JFP and Boom Jackson on your Android phone (with iPhone coming soon).

HTC Hero Is Mine

The HTC HeroA both unfortunate and fortuitous happenstance has caused me to upgrade to an HTC Hero a bit sooner than I’d thought — my Blackberry got washed with my jeans earlier in the week. After a few days of being cellphone-less, I finally got up to the CellularSouth “Discovery Center” in Ridgeland, Miss., and stepped in to see what the damage was going to be.

Things didn’t turn out too bad — I was able to “early upgrade” the Blackberry to the HTC Hero, got an instant rebate instead of the threatened mail-in variety and, after a switching fee and buying out two months worth of wireless, I walked out for less than $150 with taxes. (In the same transaction I moved another phone from my personal account to the corporate account, saving $20 per month in the process.)

Excellent Idea: Priceline iPhone App

Priceline iPhone App

Here I am set on getting an Android phone and I see this. Very, very cool.

For YEARS I’ve been looking for the solution to being on the roadtrip and getting stuck with ridiculously high prices on Interstate motels.

Back in college I worked in motels in a time when the sophisticated traveler knew that you could haggle on a room price if it was late at night or if you were in a resort area in the off season — it seems like fewer and fewer of the hourly drones behind the counters at chain motels get that freedom.

So, picture this — you’re zipping up on Knoxville, Tennessee, ready to turn in for the night and you hit up your iPhone get a Priceline deal on a 2.5 star motel.

Holy half price, Captain Kirk.

After just last weekend legging it out to make it to hotel rooms that I bought on Priceline before the trip ($45 to stay in Chattanooga, but by the time we got there it was 2 a.m.) I’ve gotta say the Priceline app would be priceless.

Now, here’s hoping an Android app is coming. (Am I getting myself in that situation again? Waiting on the Mac app…waiting on the Android app…)
