]]> Comment on For anyone with an intel mac by GatorBat http://www.actsoup.net/blog/2007/01/21/for-anyone-with-an-intel-mac/#comment-45 GatorBat Mon, 22 Jan 2007 17:02:00 +0000 http://www.actsoup.net/blog/?p=42#comment-45 Considering how many places aren't using the "Wireless N" standard (did that finally get ratified into the new standard, or is the draft just near finalization), you wouldn't notice the speed boost much, if at all, because no one's using that type of connection speed, all the free WiFi places I know are 802.11g, or a couple of old 802.11b.<br /><br />On the plus side, $2 to unlock that capability isn't too bad, and its nice to know they put in pre-N cards. Just my two cents...sorry I don't have a MacBook to help you with this any further.

I so want one of those, but if it means ripping my existing Wii apart, I think I'll wait till Wiis are plentiful in stock and I have extra cash to sink in on modding one.<br /><br />I hope you're feeling better man, I've had strep numerous times, and its never fun!

]]> Comment on iPhone by GatorBat http://www.actsoup.net/blog/2007/01/09/iphone/#comment-43 GatorBat Wed, 10 Jan 2007 23:07:00 +0000 http://www.actsoup.net/blog/?p=39#comment-43 Count me in on wanting the Apple iPhone! I watched a great clip of it in action this morning, and I was truly blown away by it. I'm not too surprised by the battery life though... most average cell phones only allow between 120-250 minutes of talk time (about 2-4 hours), keeping in mind that doesn't count the amount of time the device can be in stand-by mode where it essentially stays on, but does nothing until you press a key or an incoming signal wakes up the phone.<br /><br />I Hate Cingular (fewest dropped calls my ass...only because one can never complete an outbound or receive an inbound call, at least in this neck of the market), but perhaps this is only the tip of the ice-burg, and we'll soon see the Apple iPhone on major carriers like Verizon. Otherwise, I might have to think of switching to the darkside when the Apple iPhones come out...providing any of us can afford them :)<br /><br /> - Bryan<br /><br />P.S.

I think this will be a good resource for anyone interested in taking an educational technology class. It will demonstrate how diverse the field really is, and it will make it much easier for us all to view each other's final products.<br /><br />On another note, I am so impressed with your game. It was really entertaining and informative. I think it will really appeal to kids and make learning FCAT content more interesting. Good job!<br /><br />-Brooke :) What a really good idea Keith!
