• I can haz soma.fm on my #Pre! http://somafm.com/mobile (Now, where’s last.fm???) #
• Brilliant! (Of course.)Rtwt @BoraZ: Douglas Adams 10 years ago: ‘How to Stop Worrying and Learn to Love the Internet’ http://bit.ly/DA #
• OK @somafm, kudos on the webapp for the #Pre, but it shows no track info & doesn’t allow control from other pages. Needs work. #
• Just added @UNC_CHATfest to my calendar for February 2010. #
• Hee hee. Rtwt @smalljones: Into what? RT @nathanhewitt: S.C. gov says God will change him http://bit.ly/qp2r9 #
• Rtwt @silverbell: Love to the Beastie Boys and a speedy recovery for Adam: http://bit.ly/kA53S #
• Just got my Airave from Sprint and it’s working great. 5 bars (but no EvDo). It didn’t even need the GPS antenna. (Sorry @rossgrady.) #
• @rossgrady No, but I do live in a 30-yr-old townhouse nestled deep in the Bolin Creek valley. Everyone gets bad reception here (if any). in reply to rossgrady #

• The reality-based Whitehouse. RT @whitehouse: Vivek Kundra & IT Dashboard, FTW: http://bit.ly/sy2Q8 #
• Been trying to use @packagetrackr on my Pre and Mac. It’s so *almost* awesome. But in fact, it just doesn’t work. #
• OK, I take it back, @packagetrackr mostly works. I like that I can use iPhone-designed webapp on my Pre. Not as easy as @trackthis yet. #
• Looks good. Rtwt @tjstankus: @ruby Maybe @packagetrack will work for you? Developer @renprovey is a local. #
• @precentral I watched one on YouTube earlier and it was horrible. Quite a turnoff, and nothing to do with what the Pre does. in reply to precentral #

• @rossgrady Oy vey. Thanks for the heads up on the Airave. in reply to rossgrady #
• . @rossgrady If I had a strong signal from Sprint, I wouldn’t need the dang Airave. I’ve seen some good & some bad reports about it online. in reply to rossgrady #
