i get by with a little help from my friends...

I’ve gotta say folks… the technology augmentation I received this year was just what the doctor ordered… 

 

1.       VZN Mifi – you wouldn’t have gotten a post today until after 5 without it.  I would walk a straight line thru the convention center shooting pics, and scrawling text – then head for an exit – uploading all content in batch.  AT&T’s network is getting less than 10kbps aggregate due to what I can only imagine to be flooding.  Stewart is to thank for the last minute save – content would have been a day late without it. 

 

2.       The Qmadix boostpak from cartronix:  while the mifi saved the day from a data standpoint, my battery was still constantly being drained (in part due to the iphone 4s, and wireless auto discover.  At one point today – I had 50 access points in range.  I tried to find a way to prove it with a screen cap, but fell short..). It is amazing what an additional 2000mah will net you.  I would have had to charge 2 times today had I not had it – (and I still am seeing 1/3 capacity left after my use).  Since I’m totally not the only person in town with a 4s…  people were hoarding what few charge outlets there are to themselves.  Thanks kevin…  seriously.  (honorable mention goes to thorgren – who tried to give me his... not knowing I already had one).

 

Y’all saved the damn blog…  thanks!
