My iPhone is down.

Today I tried to update my iPhone to the latest software, and it turned the iPhone into a brick.  I am unavailable by mobile until either I get my phone fixed or replaced.  I will try to read my email frequently.  My work number is 801-594-3523.  When my mobile service is restored, my contact number will be 801-856-4812.

Best wishes,

John Coffey

iMac resolution

I think that 1080P would have been a smart resolution to have, since that is the resolution of most HD movies.  That is what I have at work and it looks great on a 25 inch monitor.   Instead Apple chose to go with a 1440P resolution, which is twice vertically and horizontally the number of pixels of 720P.  It makes everything look too small.  As a result, I drop my resolution at home down to 720P.

RE: Monthly phone data usage

How much is just the data portion?

 

It is a bait in switch, because when AT&T announced that they were doing away with unlimited, Verizon said that they would keep unlimited.

Verizon made their announcement today about dropping unlimited data plans.

 

I currently (T-Mobile) have what they label as “unlimited”, but in reality if I passed 2Gb they would throttle me down to a slower data rate and throughput.  Their new data plans also do away with “unlimited” in favor of 2Gb ($80), 5Gb ($90), 10Gb($120), higher data caps for more money.
