If you don’t know what you are doing, stop selling businesses VoIP!!

angry-on-the-phoneI have seen it time and time again.  A small business with multiple phone lines, wants to save money by switching over to VoIP.

The business owner, usually not knowing anything about the technology other than it can save them money on phone bills, typically hires an outside consultant to come in and revamp their inner office workings.

Equipment is ordered the system is built and installed, and everything seems like it is working.

Then the problems creep up…  Call quality issues, from echo, to voice stutter, to the complete inability to make a call to specific phone numbers or making calls at all, render the newly installed system virtually unusable in a functioning day to day business.

Swordfish Net 102 Dual: the first netbook with twin Atom CPUs

Alright, so we’re going to go ahead and caution against buying anything that claims to have a “dual Bluetooth” module, but if you’re feeling froggy, the planet’s first (and probably last) dual CPU netbook has just been launched. Not dual core, mind you, but dual processor. The admittedly chintzy looking Swordfish Net 102 Dual claims to have a pair of 1.6GHz Atom N270s within, not to mention 2GB of DDR2 RAM, optional WWAN, a 1.3 megapixel webcam, 10.2-inch display (1,024 x 600 resolution), a 160GB hard drive and Windows XP runnin’ the show. It’s available to order for the low, low price of $449, though we wouldn’t expect the stock 3-cell battery to last very long (read: an hour) with a pair of CPUs sucking down juice.

TiVo for BlackBerry now available, remotely schedules recordings with BlackBerry-like efficiency

Don’t expect anything out of a science fiction novel like placeshifting — better look to the gurus at Sling Media for that — but if you’re just looking for a nice, easy way to peruse your channel guide and set up TiVo recordings remotely from the soft glow of your BlackBerry’s screen, there’s a new option in town. The aptly-named TiVo for BlackBerry app lets you record one-off shows, set up Season Passes, and browse a guide that looks surprisingly similar to the UI you’ll find on the TiVo itself. It’s available for download now from App World, and rest assured, you don’t need to worry about blowing through your carrier’s data caps with this one.
