Droid app of the week


This week's Droid app of the week is Lookout mobile security. This is a must have app. It offers you 3 types of services. First is a backup storage of your files in case something unexpectedly bad happens to your phones and causes you to lose your files. This is great. In my case because of many files it took a while to back everything up but well worth it. Second is an antivirus protection in case you were to ever get your Droid infected with some kind of virus or spyware. Third is a find my phone option which means you can locate your phone with GPS if it ever gets lost. Also with this option, say you misplaced your Droid phone in your house you can get it to ring an alarm even if your phone is in silent mode. All in all this is a great triple threat app and I highly recommend its softwarety goodness and best of all its free!

IPad and big red

Guess who got together. Verizon and Apple are now doing business together. At the end of the month big red will start selling the iPad. Only not the 3G version, just the WIFI version. You'll be able to buy it by itself or bundled with a Verizon mifi device. Either way its interesting that these 2 companies are now doing business.

Droid app of the week


This week's Droid app of the week is Rock player. The one thing about Android phones is only certain files can be played on it. Well with Rock player we can now play almost all the popular video files there are. It supports AVI, MKV, MP4, FLV, 3GP, MOV, ASF, DivX, Xvid, WMV, and H.264. This app frees up Android's limitations and can now play these files. Now you won't have to waste time converting files to the appropriate ones on the stock Android device and just play it thanks to Rock player.

Windows 7

Well now that Windows 7 is out the smartphone competition just got that much stronger. Apple set the standard but Android is in my opinion, the new leader, but not without its competitors to keep raising the bar. After seeing the Windows & phones out there I must say there is some gadgety goodness going on. LG, Samsung, and HTC have released their Windows 7 phones and are formidable devices. AT&T will be the main carrier of Windows 7 devices. Verizon and Sprint will get into the action some time next year. I will be doing some reviews on some of these smartphones in the near future and post on only the ones that have the most to offer the user.

Droid app of the week

This week's Droid app of the week is the Direct tv dvr app. This is a great app for you on the go. Sometimes you forget to record a show you want to watch and aren't able to get to your dvr. Well with this app you'll never have to worry again. You can access your Direct tv dvr and record your show so you can view later. I've used this app and has been very helpful. You can search shows by the name of the show, channel, or time. Definitely a useful app for Direct tv customers.
