I have been working on my home page and cleaning up my blog. I hope to do more work on both but they are up and operational. If you come across my page drop me an email.
Other areas I might be able to help is in sales. I have read many books, been to seminars, listened to tapes and podcasts. Along with sales comes the collection of tech-gadgets, organizers, time-management and dedication. So, if you have a question, fire away.

Just finished this book by Frank J. Rumbauskas Jr. and I would recomend this to anyone in sales. It brings many ideas and a new outlook on marketing that is a must for sales today.
If you are in sales, you need to answer yes to these questions:
Do you have a web page?
Do you use email to communitcate to the masses?
Are you staying in contact with your entire database?
These questions and more are covered in this book.

I purchased this phone last week and I have to say I love it. I was working with a Pocket PC (Audiovox) prior to this and it was nice phone. The concern I had was moving from a Pocket PC with a touch screen to a Smartphone that was controlled by a scroll button. After a short learning curve (I wanted to touch the screen on occasion but have stopped) I have come to really like the functionality of the scroll button.
The other great thing about this phone is the size, I can put it in my pocket and forget it is there. With my old phone it was just too bulky – it did not fit in my pocket, a hip case was obtrusive and carrying it around in an organizer defeated the entire purpose of the phone (who needs two organizers).
The keyboard is great for quick emails and short replies. To dial a number, although this is done only on the rare occasion with the built in voice dialing command, takes some getting used to.
I have not explored the use of the phone as a mp3 player but I plan on trying this out in the near future. This will require two additional purchases on my part. I will need to get a mini-SD card, my old phone used the regular size SD cards. Second, the head-phone jack is the smaller size so I will need to get an adapter or a new set of headphones.
I highly recommend this phone. It is very small, easy to use, runs on Windows Mobile 5.0 and syncs up with Outlook without a problem.
