So, you’ve used your Mac in some way in recent times to communicate with someone using one of those VOIP/video apps there are out there, like Skype and iChat..
If you’ve read my previous blog post about wideband audio (and yeah, I know, I haven’t finished the series of posts about that, I’ll get around to it honest!) you’ll know I have an obsession with wideband telephony. So when a Jabra reseller offered to give a few of us at work some wireless headsets to try out I was keen as!
Guys n gals, I wanna buy my first DSLR camera at last, and the upcoming months are a good time to get this happening. Any advice and tips, and recommendations from people who have a bit of experience in this area would be really handy. I love learning from others’ mistakes, plus I drive a hard bargain so I’ld love to know the better way to go about buying a body and lenses.
Just updated my Siemens Gigaset S685 IP (the bestest Cordless VOIP phone I’ve seen so far!) to v02191 this morning. From the Gigaset website some of the improvements are below but the main thing is the ability to access the Info Center widgets from within the menu structure rather than wait for the screensaver to render. This was anticipated after the interview with Tony Starkus on the VOIP Users Conference last week.
Recently I bought a Switch Easy CapsuleRebel for my iPhone 3GS and it’s been okay. After having it a couple of weeks I’ve noticed three problems. Thanks Optus.
OK so I am yet to finish my “series” on wideband telephony from my last post. Gimme a break…I’ll get around to it. Today I’m gonna blog about a random last minute idea I had to make videos I record better.
Quite often people hear me, someone else or the press banging on about “wideband telephony” or “HD phone calls” and have a ton of questions about what this new phenomenon is, so I thought I would start a series of posts on my blog to try and explain in laymen’s terms, with as few acronyms and nerdwords as possible!
Back in the mid-nineties I had an Ericsson GH688. As with most Ericssons at the time there were two unique things that I really loved about it..
When I was growing up mum used to always make this vegetable soup that was really nice. I don’t know where she learnt to make it and really never met any other mum that makes vegetable soup that tastes the same. I figure it’s probably got to do with the presence of baconny goodness (more on that in a moment) than anything else since most other people keep true to the namesake and ONLY put vegetables in theirs.
After dinner I was still feeling a bit peckish and since Laura went out for coffee with a friend tonight I thought I’ld hunt around in the pantry and graze for additional nomnoms. Suddenly I remembered a delicious 5 minute cake recipe I saw on Mactalk awhiles back and the game was on!
I talked a little about the Siemens S685IP phone yesterday but didnt really mention the new firmware release a couple of days back. This had a widely-anticipated feature, that almost every other phone in the world has had for years: A mute function!
