If you're not rooted, MyBackupPro (which has a 30 day trial on the market), is usually the other recommendation.

Yes, you can sync only certain groups. These steps are for vanilla Android (looking at my OG Droid running CM6.1.2, ymmv depending on skin). Go to the contacts app, hit menu and then display options. You can then choose what groups to view for each account. Now, I believe I've read somewhere that this controls the…

Is there any Windows version of that Dateline app? I'd much prefer that over my current gadget.

I'm eagerly waiting for the BuddyTV app for Android. Being able to control the cable box from the phone? Awesome, especially on my tablet.

Tasker will even let you change settings based off calendar information. In my case, I have it set to disable wireless when I have a work calendar entry (and if I didn't run with my phone always on vibrate, I'd also have it mute the volume as well). I can also take that same setting and have it for any meetings as…

[addons.mozilla.org] (Google Contacts as mentioned in the article) works beautifully for me.

That build.prop file? That would be the device restriction (and can also be used to have a different Market than normal for that device). Cyanogenmod, being written for a Nexus S (or One), generally has the build.prop reflecting that fact.

It doesn't work on a stock (unrooted) Transformer. The app launches perfectly fine, its just "not supported".

I sleep on my side all the time and have no problems with my knees. However, usually the recommendation for those with knee issues is to use a pillow either between the knees or between the ankles.

Along the lines of this, Gmail can grab (via pop3 usually) the email from the school account (again, depends on school's settings) and even be set to send as if it was that account. This would basically turn the Gmail account into something silent on the back end. Of course, that is a lot of bouncing back and forth…

"data rigth back down to"

For my less computer-savvy grandparents, thats what we've done: set all the updates (Windows/anti-virus/anti-malware) to happen overnight and also have the various system scans set to run then as well (disk cleanup, the actual scans of the anti-virus/anti-malware). This way, they know to keep the computer up that one…

Actually, I believe if you find an old Mythbusters episode, they compared gas mileage to running with A/C or running with windows down and the difference was negligible.

You will be able to get Honeycomb in the future though. They've even admitted that it got put out too quick and want to clean it up before they give it to the masses (source: [www.reuters.com]

Not really true, read OCEntertainment's post below for a good summary, but yes, if you want the Google Marketplace, you have to agree to terms with Google (and license them). This is why Cyanogenmod got into hot water with Google a year or so ago, because it was distributing those apps built into the ROM. However, the…

I used to use KeePass (especially when at a previous job when I used it to store all the passwords for work, and kept the database on the work machine). But my biggest issue with it for day-to-day use, is that as far as I know, you can't have it bring up your database while browsing the web and giving the password…

But, you can still get 'em free from the developer (and they were free to begin with and if you already had it installed, its not going away).

Amazon app store would be one method.

Yes

The carrier blocks for tethering apps still apply in the sense that you can't just grab the app from the Market (web or on phone). You can still generally get it from the developer's website (if they've got a download link for the .apk).
