The display is very sharp and the camera makes great pictures

HTC Desire is fast, looks great, compact, professional. The display is very sharp and the camera makes great pictures and videos. Interface is easy to navigate. I love WiFi and 3G. The only drawback is the keys are very difficult to find and press accurately and it takes often several times to enter my password or to correct text in email and text (very annoying!). I had a Desire 8310 before and the keyboard was very easy to use. I don’t understand why Desire went back to the old keyboard on the Bold 9700, which would be otherwise a perfect phone.

Maybe, maybe not

Some guy at work was insisting on how we supposedly can’t afford to get sharepoint consultants. His emphasis, not mine. So, we argued for like an hour and a half, with argument thrown here and there…

So then I figured out a nice tactic that used to annoy me. I had a friend who said “maybe”, “perhaps” and “I dunno man” to even the most obvious stuff he said. I just kept saying “I dunno man, hmmm, not sure if that’s true”, “Yeah, I dunno, maybe”, and the good news is we’re getting those consultants tommorow. Awesome, isn’t it? :)

I’m not ready to join the 3D world just yet

Remember when Avatar came out last winter and everybody was talking about how cool the 3D technology was?   I think I was one of the few people who preferred the 2D version.  I’m just not a 3D glasses kind of guy – it just gives me a headache.  Perhaps 3D isn’t for people like me who tend to get motion sickness pretty easily.   I guess that’s why I’m staunchly opposed to all of this 3D stuff coming out.  I’d rather my movies and TV come to me in the standard 2D variety so I can watch them without getting a headache but maybe I’m just being an old fuddy duddy.
