Fixing 3 Mobile Broadband E168G on Snow Leopard
After upgrading my Macbook Pro to Snow Leopard I found that my 3 Mobile Broadband USB (Huawei Mobile Connect E169G) stick no longer functioned. The quite frankly rubbish MobileConnect software that they have on the stick refused to start on Snow Leopard and promptly crashed every time.

The best way to buy an iPhone?
I have been looking to purchase an iPhone since the launch of the 3Gs. The original plan was to make a purchase while I was on holiday in Italy during August, the primary reason for this was because unlike our unhelpful country here in the UK Italy by law has to sell unlocked phones and I needed a new phone after surrendering my free Nokia when I left to join Tweetdeck.
I knew the cost for the iPhone would be expensive due to the euro exchange rate but well worth not being tied in to an operator and having the freedom to use any SIM plan I like. This would also have the advantage of easy upgrade when Apple release the next generation of iPhone.

I’m joining TweetDeck!
Yes that’s correct I’m leaving my position as front end architect for Nokia Music and heading off down to London town to join the TweetDeck team.
If your not sure what TweetDeck is then where have you been?!
I have known Iain for a few years now and have been really impressed by what he has achieved with TweetDeck. So when the offer came to join the team how could I refuse, oh and I get to work at the ‘bat cave’!.
Having been involved in the Flash and Flex community for a number of years and more recently with Adobe AIR as a Community Expert it’s going to be great working with these technologies on a daily basis.
Combining my knowledge of UI, UX and development with my recent mobile device experience I really feel that we can take the TweetDeck proposition to new heights across multiple platforms reaching to and connecting people world wide. It’s an exciting time.
I’m sure I will see some of you around London town and might even pop along to some of the London Flash community meetups.
The latest release of TweetDeck and the TweetDeck Directory are fantastic if your not using Tweetdeck then get it. There really is no better way of keeping track of your social connections across Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and more.
