Video Conferencing.. Ready for Prime Time.
The reality of video conferencing 10 years or even 5 years ago was a pipe dream for the casual home user.

Syncing the iPhone 3g wirelessly
The iphone 3g is an amazing little device and while I’m not thrilled with Apple about how they run their business, I’m definitely fond of their phone. Just a couple of issues.. How to make it more usable for a power-user such as me? I need my contacts, calendars, and notes synchronized so I thought…
