Bloomberg

If you’re like me you don’t often think about stocks outside of their current market value. I have also never met a mobile software application to make me excited about it either. But, Bloomberg from Bloomberg LP just might make me see things differently. And for you high stressed stock brokers and the like out there who already do, read on as this might be your next best friend after those Tums on your desk.

Technology is a beautiful thing… when it works

All was fine last week; I was jotting down ideas for some articles I might post along with some more iPhone app reviews. This past Monday I get a phone call at work from my wife around 8:00pm. She tells me the laptop crashed and would not restart. Okay, I said just unplug it and I’ll check it out when I get home later.
So I get home and I can’t get it up and running long enough to even attempt to repair it nor do I have enough time play around. I could have easily just wiped the whole thing and start from scratch but I don’t want to go through all that if it’s not necessary

WordPress for the iPhone to the rescue. Normally I use it to write my drafts until I get home were I can post it with pictures. But until my day off (tomorrow, thank God) where I can spend some time with my laptop and see what’s really the problem; from here on in all my posts will be done from my iPhone.

Technology failed me, but redeemed itself and saved me too. Thanks WordPress.

eWallet the Secure Information Manager is now available for the iPhone

Ilium Software has been around for quite some time and eWallet has been a big hit for them among Windows Mobile users for years. Now, Ilium has answered the calls of iPhone owners and brought eWallet over for us to enjoy.

Ilium seems to have put a lot of work and effort into this application. They’ve made it easy to use, it looks and feels like the built-in applications and it works well. Obviously they have also spent a lot time and thought into the functioning of this application to keep it in line with their other versions. While it is very detailed, it is not complicated to use nor does it inundate you with lots of choices you will never use or forget about later.

I had no problems getting started with this application. I came from using Flexwallet for many years and had some serious reservation about switching to another SIM again. But seeing how this is a good combination of the two software titles I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised at how quickly and easily I was able to navigate my way around. Not one time did I feel lost like I didn’t know what I was doing.
