Digi Jeff "Will prostitute for Apple iPad" sign

Have you ever seen something on tv or the internet and say wow that is so cool, I got to get it when it comes out? Well that's what I said, except I'm willing to prostitute myself for one.....well not really so please don't email me offers.   Sometimes you got to do what you got to do to get what you need.

 

The next big thing from Twitter founder, Square

In February 2009, Jim McKelvey wasn’t able to sell a piece of his glass art because he couldn’t accept a credit card as payment. Even though a majority of payments has moved to plastic cards, accepting payments from cards is still difficult, requiring long applications, expensive hardware, and an overly complex experience. Square was born a few days later right next to the old San Francisco US Mint. Today the Square team is focused on bringing immediacy, transparency, and approachability to the world of payments: an inherently social interaction each of us participates in daily. We’re starting with a limited beta and rolling out to everyone in early 2010. More information

Part 2: How to destroy a sidekick with a dirt bike and car

Well this is part 2 I did with my dirt bike and car. Sidekick is pretty durable and is still alive, might throw it on ebay for a quarter. Here is part 1 in case you missed it.

How to destroy your T-Mobile Sidekick with a baseball bat

My name is DigiJeff and this is my story....Well today is October 12th 2009 and the Colorado Rockies lost to the Phillies. It was a game where Phillies made an unbelievable comeback in the 9th inning. After Rockies being up 4-2, Phillies came back to win the game 5-4. 

After being frustrated with the game. I looked on my desk where my old T-mobile phones were. After hearing T-Mobile pulled the sidekicks from their store and are not selling them (anymore / right now) I came to the conclusion that I won't be able to sell these sidekicks anymore. So then it dawned on me....I will take my frustration out on the sidekicks. 

Phillies are a great team, I am just mad like any other fan gets when his favorite team loses.

I was a T-Mobile user for 10 years and after they did not want to fix the coverage and all the other problems I had with them, I switched to AT&T.
