This review has been a long time coming, but I thought I’d go ahead and put it out there… Better late than never, right? The short version is that we’ve had the D-Link DIR-655 wireless router for a bit over a year, and we love it.

My son’s Asus Eee PC 1000HE running Windows XP recently contracted a nasty virus. Unfortunately, he didn’t tell me about it right away, and we ended up having to completely restore his system and start over from scratch.
I recently ran out of hard drive space while ripping DVDs. The resulting lack of Virtual Memory caused Mac OSX to “pause” several applications. Once I freed up some additional space, I wanted to unpause them, but was unsure how.
Do you ever leave unread messages in your Gmail inbox? If so, then you might be interested in the “TrueNew” message count that was introduced with the MailRoom app for iPhone. In short, TrueNew lists how many new unread messages you have.
Over the past few years, I’ve become increasingly dependent on Gmail. I actually have several different accounts that I need to keep separate for a variety of reasons, and have found that Mailplane is an excellent tool for managing them.
After resisting the temptation for close to a year, I’ve finally decided to jailbreak my iPhone. My main motivation for doing this is to be able to tether my MacBook Pro to my 3G connection. I’d also like to be able to give me kids mobile internet access for their iPods and/or netbooks when we’re traveling.
I recently helped my son shoot a news story for his Language Arts class. We shot the video using our Flip Mino camcorder, dragged the clips into iMovie for editing, and then exported the finished product in .m4v format.
Last fall, we got a Belkin N+ wireless router. After we got the initial kinks worked out (including a near-impossible firmware update) and got over the fact that it won’t work with HFS+ hard drives, we started running into problems with dropped connections, especially on my wife’s MacBook.
