I bought the pro version and haven't looked back. I love that he finally baked in the ability to sync reading positions across devices with either Dropbox or Drive. With my 20,000+ ebook library, I doubt I'll run out of things to read any time soon.

Flying crowbar? For some reason, and I'm not sure why, but this made me think of, Rods from God. A properly engineered "Rod from God" would have all the force of a nuclear bomb, yet none of the fallout. It's a win-win...

I purchased my first computer back in 1987. It was an old 8088 processor with 640k of RAM. I immediately purchased a hard drive for it, along with a color monitor. It came with two 5" floppy drives, but no hard drive. I gave $120 for a 20 megabyte hard drive in some computer store in the San Diego area. It only…

You could buy her a drink first...

And another shot.

I found this bag at a recovery outlet and gave $6 for it. I knew it was worth that and far more, but it wasn't until I did the research on the bag and found most places were selling it for over $100 that I realized how great a bargain it was. Unfortunately, it was the only one they had at the time.

My Leatherman isn't the Wave, but it's very similar and hasn't been manufactured in many years. It's a great tool. I hadn't thought of doing paracord around my caribiner. I've seen it, but for some reason hadn't thought of doing that. I guess I should. In the winter, I carry a small ziplock of dryer lint and…

And he probably still wonders why he can't get a date.

My go bag always contains at least one knife, but then, I always have at least one knife in my pocket, and sometimes, two knives. My go bag also has a decent Leatherman multitool, along with a dongle here or there, a couple of tablets, chargers, Chromecast, and a bevy of assorted USB cables for any and every device. …

"I'm looking for a good weather widget for my iPhone without jailbreaking. Any suggestions?"

I think we're on the same page. One of the issues with Android phones in general has been the quality of handsets available. We're finally starting to see some quality with the HTC One, while the Nexus line has had decent quality and a pure Android experience right out of the box. Personally, I wouldn't purchase a…

Thanks for the link! I'll read it more fully tomorrow. Still, no matter the attribution, the market numbers are favoring Android. While it's possible that what you see on that link is a snapshot, as they said, there's no doubt iOS is starting to fall behind. Here's a link from Engadget regarding worldwide sales. …

The market is clearly beginning to vote for Android, if for no other reason than Android offers more choices. In the end, it's not always about which OS is better. People made this argument in the early days regarding Apple and Windows that Apple was clearly the better computer and operating system. The market…

I have numerous iPod Touch devices and an iPad 2. I also play guitar, and love using my iRig adapter to hook my guitar to my iOS devices. I would agree that iOS is a better platform for music and musicians, at this point. I'm not sure if Google will ever fix what seems to be an inherent lag with Android and…

I figured there would be certified GPS out there, but I didn't want to purchase another BT GPS unit when the one I have works with everything else I have, whether windows or Android. It just seems to me like it's another case of Apple not playing well with others.

Android is obviously better, unless you're a toddler. By all means, purchase an Apple product for your toddlers and other smaller children. You can't go wrong. If you have older children, get them a decent Android device, unless they just need style points for a particular social group.

I found something Apple doesn't allow, for some reason. I wanted to use an external bluetooth GPS with an iPod touch 4g for navigation. I can do this with an Android tablet, but not the iPod Touch. Why would Apple hamstring a device by not allowing it to connect to a bluetooth GPS? I have no idea, and I haven't…

How many choices of form and function do you have on an iPhone?

Not at all! If it works for you, that's perfect. That's the beauty of Android, in a nutshell. You don't have to conform to some cookie cutter standard.

What is this Android you speak of?
