eBuddy Pro 3.2 (iPhone)

Stays connected more consistently to Facebook chat that other IM offerings on the App Store.

Constant problems connecting to AIM if another client  is already connected.

Droid

Needs Logmein or acceptable VPN.
Performance can be sluggish at time, but will hopefully be improved in the 2.01 update.

Notification bar is excellent. iPhone needs something like this desparately.
Google Navigation is wonderful. Led me down a few one way streets but that will get better in time.

Dolphin Browser still feels clunky and will interrupt browsing from links if it is not selected as the default. Multitouch for Dolphin is a nice touch. :)

Facebook app crashes when trying to access links from notifications.

Weatherbug kills the battery even if you turn of location and gps refresh.

If you turn of auto-brightness buttons on bottom of phone will not stay illuminated after 6 seconds in the dark.

Depending the apps you have running you can kill the battery in 3 hrs

Blackberry Bold 9700

Waiting on and extended battery. The battery life has been great on the Blackberry Bold 9700, but doing a lot of remote access work with kill the battery quickly.

Periodically I will lose the ability to access the web through the Blackberry Browser, Internet Blackberry Browser and MediaNet Browser. Bolt and Opera Browsers work fine constantly.

Spinning clock and lock ups drive me nuts at times, but it is because one of my apps has a memory leak and I must find out what it is.

Log 1

I want to devote this blog to all the tech I test and some of the running logs of errors and successes the devices have over time.
