If it's not open it's broken. Ask Us to Ask Motorola Anything. August 10th, 2015. You’ve heard of an AMA. Think of this as an AUAMA. Howard has invited me along to a Motorola event happening in downtown Toronto later this morning, which will almost certainly be about the new Moto G. And Moto X Play. Remember, the Moto X Pure/Style edition is. Coming to this country, probably because we’re not a big enough market for Moto Maker. Moto G / XT1540. 5 inch 720p display @ 294 ppi. 14 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon.

Subsidized or SIM-free? An Informal Poll – Open attitude
http://openattitude.com/2015/08/11/subsidized-or-sim-free-an-informal-poll
If it's not open it's broken. August 11th, 2015. One minor revelation from yesterday’s pow-wow that Howard and I had with Motorola Canada. Is still sticking with me: the 3rd iteration of the cheap and cheerful Moto G will. Be available from carriers here. As a champion of unlocked phones, that makes me sad. I can only guess that selling phones to carriers in this country is a better business than offering them SIM-free through other channels like Staples. You’re going to need service anyway, right?

If it's not open it's broken. UGO Wallet is Bad and the People Who Made It Should Feel Bad. August 5th, 2015. For our tech-savvy UGO Wallet users, unfortunately we don’t support rooted phones…. Riiight, because a user with root access can do all sorts of nefarious things. It’s like, someone with admin access on their computer or something…! Don’t believe they hype, dear reader; mobile payments remain a hot mess in Cana-duh, and UGO Wallet does nothing to change that. The app only supports MasterCards fro...

Monthly Archives: March 2015. Surrendering to a Hotel Chain. March 26, 2015. The way I see it, the smart travel dollar does triple duty, rewarding you not once, not twice, but thrice. Take, for example, last week’s online purchase of Cathay Pacific tickets using my RBC-Cathay co-branded VISA. 1) I get the tickets (duh), (2) I earn Asia Miles travelling on said tickets and,. 3) I earn double the Asia Miles on the purchase thanks the co-branded credit card. It’s a holy trinity of travel rewards. Everything...

Because me, acurrie is not a valid url. November 3, 2014. How To Find Spyware On Your Android Device. So how was your weekend? Good, good. Mine? Pretty uneventful, really. I did find out that an Android app that I’ve been using for years has been phoning home to China, but other than that…. The app in question is ES File Explorer. But now I do, and it’s all thanks to some forum threads and my new favourite app. Unknown Folder “baidu”. Read status and identity of your device. Get your exact location.

Like a Sir: My Stay at Novotel Montreal Centre | TravelWhut
http://travelwhut.com/2015/04/22/like-a-sir-my-stay-at-novotel-montreal-centre
Like a Sir: My Stay at Novotel Montreal Centre. April 22, 2015. There was a lot riding on my stay at Novotel Montreal Centre. This past weekend. More than anything else it was a test-drive of the Novotel brand itself; Thanks to a credit card perk I have a Platinum membership in Accor’s Le Club loyalty program. But after a less-than-ideal experience at an Ibis property in Hong Kong I wasn’t sure if Accor was for me. I originally had a highly-rated boutique hotel in Old Montreal. I still had to provide ID ...
