I have been eyeing Sony Ericsson's P800 for a bit, but now comes the P900. GSM/GPRS, Bluetooth, WAP 2, Opera included, Symbian OS 7.0, a real JVM, full PDA software (integrates with Outlook etc.), MP3 player (more storage via Memory Sticks), rotate it for a game console (complete with sound and...
Looks like I'll be in Louisville, KY on December 2nd, and that sounds like a perfect opportunity to meet the local CFUG/MMUG. The event and link have been posted to my homepage. See you there!
ColdFusion expert (and long time CF Studio user) Simon Horwith has written an intriguing article on using Dreamweaver MX 2004 with ColdFusion. He presents some very compelling ways to extend Dreamweaver for ColdFusion use, and even confesses "the truth is that the more I use Dreamweaver MX 2004,...
