I hope those I met during my unofficial time engaged with this keep in contact.

Now, on to the farewell note… ]]>http://www.shasam.net/blog/rss-comments-entry-15042825.xmlWhat I look for in a "Smart" Phone - aka is it a Palm Pre Plus in Australia?AndroidAppleGoogleHPNexus OnePalmPreTechnologyTouchpadiPhoneShane LordThu, 03 Mar 2011 00:16:20 +0000http://www.shasam.net/blog/2011/3/3/what-i-look-for-in-a-smart-phone-aka-is-it-a-palm-pre-plus-i.html550684:7179048:10655835I’m a self-professed tech junkie, addicted to not only playing with the latest gadgets but actually trying to use each and every one for day-to-day purposes, and see how they benefit or detract from my daily life.

As some would have read on my blog before, I’ve tried using an HTC Desire as well as an iPhone to do so, and have ended up back on the iPhone for the time being. I’ve also tried an HTC Mozart (Windows Phone 7) and an imported, unlocked (AT&T) Palm Pre Plus. This post contains my thoughts on the Palm Pre Plus (specifically an imported model not supported in Australia yet). ]]>http://www.shasam.net/blog/rss-comments-entry-10655835.xmlThe Honeymoon is Over (or: Why I went back to the iPhone from the HTC Desire)3GSAndroidAppleDesireGoogleHTCTechnologyTelstraiPhoneShane LordSun, 16 May 2010 10:59:06 +0000http://www.shasam.net/blog/2010/5/16/the-honeymoon-is-over-or-why-i-went-back-to-the-iphone-from.html550684:7179048:8107280My last blog post I wrote about tips for people moving to the HTC Desire from the iPhone. I was writing with the bliss of a new & shiny gadget in my hands. Who could blame me? The HTC Desire is one very nice piece of hardware. Fast processor, nice camera, beautiful screen etc.

But this post is why after a few weeks I have found myself back using my iPhone, whilst the HTC Desire now resides in my top drawer, probably never to see the light of day as my daily handset again. ]]>http://www.shasam.net/blog/rss-comments-entry-8107280.xmlTips from swapping to an HTC Desire from the iPhone 3GS3GSAndroidAppleDesireGoogleHTCTechnologyTelstraiPhoneShane LordFri, 23 Apr 2010 06:17:33 +0000http://www.shasam.net/blog/2010/4/23/tips-from-swapping-to-an-htc-desire-from-the-iphone-3gs.html550684:7179048:8107278http://www.shasam.net/blog/rss-comments-entry-8107278.xmlBuying goods over the Internet from OverseasImportInternetShoppingShoppingTaxTechnologyShane LordMon, 29 Mar 2010 22:59:17 +0000http://www.shasam.net/blog/2010/3/30/buying-goods-over-the-internet-from-overseas.html550684:7179048:8107277http://www.shasam.net/blog/rss-comments-entry-8107277.xmlJOBO photoGPS on Mac OSX450DCanonGPSJOBOMacOSXTechnologygeotaggeotaggingiPhotophotoGPSShane LordSat, 31 Jan 2009 09:50:16 +0000http://www.shasam.net/blog/2009/1/31/jobo-photogps-on-mac-osx.html550684:7179048:8107276B&H.
