Help Save Coopersville, MI!

Posted on Monday, December 7th, 2009 at 1:14 PM in life by Michael

A wise person wrote this today. It is very true, corruption from the top needs to be dealt with in a swift manner. Without any further adieu:

I really think it’s sad that most people in City Hall or Chamber of Commerce, or whoever you may be or where ever you may be from, don’t even live in our wonderful little town. I have a real problem with you being able to walk away if you so choose and never look back. Continue Reading

Oh Newegg, Why do you hate me so?

Posted on Friday, December 4th, 2009 at 4:36 PM in N900, geek, life, tech by Michael

So, if you’ve been paying attention, you’ll notice my issues with my last post about Newegg shipping the N900 and how we finally had an ETA of 12/7/09 for stock to get back in.  Well I got curious again today and decided to look.  Continue Reading

Newegg Shipping the N900??!?!

Posted on Friday, November 27th, 2009 at 11:52 AM in N900, geek, life, tech by Michael

So today I went to check out Newegg’s Black Friday sales, nothing really of interest to me.  And I decided to take a gander at the N900′s page there to see if any news has changed since they removed the pre-order ability and set it back to the $649 price point. Continue Reading

N900 Newegg Release Date

Posted on Wednesday, November 25th, 2009 at 7:38 PM in N900, geek, life, tech by Michael

So, I was getting a bit antsy about my N900 from Newegg, and since the order is under Nicole’s account I had her talk to them.  This is what we found out.

The original release date was 11/14/09 for the original shipment they received from Nokia, and since I wasn’t high enough in the queue to make that shipment, I got pushed back to the crowd for the 11/30/09 release date.  The rep couldn’t say how far back we are in the queue, or how many units they are getting in, so there’s no guarantee that I’ll even get my N900 with the next shipment next week.  I may have to wait ANOTHER 2 weeks (or longer) depending on how many units they get in and how far back I am in the queue.

So the wait for my N900 continues with no guaranteed answers in sight :(

Nokia N900 MMS Support

Posted on Tuesday, November 10th, 2009 at 7:18 PM in N900, geek, tech by Michael

I heard information about the Nokia N900 not supporting MMS upon launch.  I was curious about it so I decided to email their support and ask.  I didn’t get the kind of response I was looking for, but here it is nonetheless (formatting edited for readability).

Nokia N900 Shipping from Newegg

Posted on Sunday, November 8th, 2009 at 2:15 PM in N900, geek, life, tech by Michael

Since I pre-ordered the Nokia N900 from Newegg with FedEx Standard Overnight shipping, and was curious when I could expect to receive the phone.  I was especially curious since Nokia slated the US release date to be 11/14/09, which is a Saturday, and most shipping from Newegg never delivers on Saturdays.
