I have a blackberry addiction. There. I've said it. I feel anxious when I can't find my phone or leave it behind, and the mere feel of the device in my hand gives me a sense of overwhelming comfort. As disturbing as my PDA dependence might be, I have noticed that I … (5 comments)
I just purchased a TRIO Centrino. I hope I made the right decision. It was recommended by my board. I should of check with my AR colleagues first but I did not think of it until it arrived. I have not openned it yet but thought I would querry you all … (0 comments)
Someone recently asked:
For weeks I had been trying to decide what piece of technology should I purchase. A newer laptop or a smartphone? Once I narrowed that down the decision now to make was Treo or Blackberry?
For my personal password depository I have tried journals, excel spreadsheets, notes, outlook, my Treo, you name it. My hand written journal worked the best using codes to remind myself of passwords. Anyways I thought I had the best solution until one day I received an email from Palm software for my … (12 comments)
I just don't get it, and maybe you can tell me what I am missing here. I have a Treo 750, I have had it for almost a year and half. I couldn't live without my touch screen features (has Blackberry added that yet). It comes standard with the Windows Mobile … (4 comments)
Quick question for anyone using Blackberry for Real Estate. I've really enjoyed my curve and currently use the basic programs that came with my phone (phonebook, video, email, text, calender etc...). Does anyone have recommendations of additional programs or helpful hints for this phone that have been helpful for you in our … (3 comments)
I am looking to purchase a new PDA, can anyone help me with which one is the best nowdays. I'd love comments on the pros and cons of all of them. The biggest problem I have had with the Treo 680 is the size, I don't like how thick it is … (0 comments)
I receive questions each week from real estate agents, small business owners and other professionals about mobile marketing tools and where they can find more information. 
My company has a brown bag lunch once a month during which we brainstorm (and sometimes bitch) about the current market and what we can do about it.
Ok, I've gotten a bit busier this past few weeks. Which is a welcome albeit stressful thing. I've been out showing houses a lot more than I have in months and realize that life would be much easier, and I'd be a better agent, if I could easily access the internet … (25 comments)
I had so many e-mails from my last post: 
With more and more people (especially in our field) using their phones and PDAs to keep up with the constant flow of email and surfing the web on the fly to save time, there's a flu going around for these devices. It isn't an epidemic yet, but I am hearing about … (14 comments)
Being a newbie to Oklahoma City and the world of large city Real Estate, I have come to notice that many of my fellow Realtors have the Smartphone devices. I have always wanted a Smartphone and I know they can be a huge advantage to your business in order to access the web … (5 comments)
It all started with Oprah Winfrey. My wife was invited to a show 3 years ago with a girlfriend. She went to the show and had a wonderful time. I received a call from her (my wife, not Oprah) after the show saying that she was on "Oprah's Favorites" show. She calls … (68 comments)
Typing and watching football really don't mix that well. Especially when those new, expensive, commercials come on, or someone scores a touchdown. Why bother you ask, well I'm glad you asked. There is just not enough time in the day to do everything, and the four hours I am spending in … (7 comments)
Does this make you wonder, "What the heck am I doing with my time?" Do you feel like you arent closing as many leads as you want? 
Article 12 affects your PDA's signature
Well, it has happened. My bluetooth has gone to the land of the "where did it go" gremlins.
Are you getting a discount? Sprint has a special website for NAR: 
I have no intentions of starting a REALTORS® Choice series but here's another great find I HAD to blog about. Hopefully, you've already read REALTORS® Choice Award: Vehicle of the Year and ran right out to buy your new Dodge Caravan or Chrysler Town & Country. Just kidding!
I currently use a Treo 650 from Verizon as my PDA and ekey. I am modestly happy with this; I love the solution, but the phone is really quirky. My husband (not a Realtor) uses a Verizon 700 and says that it is very quirky, too (but with a Windows operating … (5 comments)
It's been a few years now that the Pueblo Association of Realtors decided to update the MLS service and lock box system they use. Every Realtor associated with PAR was requested to show up at the convention center at a designated time. Turn in your old key and replace it at … (9 comments)
RE/MAX agents have recently received a great offer from AT&T to get a Treo 750 or a Blackberry Curve for a fantastic price. I'm very interested. I have a Moto Razr V3xx that I never wanted in the first place, which is a total PILE and I hate more than anything. … (34 comments)
While at a tech seminar in Houston, the speaker was ranting about the Iphone and how great it was. Now mind you this was a tech seminar... I have used various cell phones, pdas, and little comes close to the security a pocket pc smartphone and blackberry offer. Some time ago, … (2 comments)
A few weeks back I accidentally dropped my Palm PDA (Zire 71) on the ground and it landed face (screen) down on concrete and a rock. Needless to say, the screen did not survive and I was forced to begin considering how I would replace it. The PDA, which was originally purchased … (7 comments)
What is a SmartPhone? In short, it is a mobile phone that provides easy to operate functionality for mobile communications and computingin one small package. These new SmartPhones were made with REALTORS in mind. Ok that is a slight exaggeration but they work great for Real Estate. With Real Estate programs … (9 comments)
When I started in this business I used a little appointment book that I carried everywhere. That and my cell phone were like extensions of my body! Well, times change and ever so slowly, so do I.....
Almost everyone in the real estate market has a PDA phone of some sort, whether it be the TRIO Windows Or Palm Based, or another Windows based pda (Moto Q, Audiovox phones, and Others) The Blackberry, and now The Apple I-Phone!
When we replace these devices - typically, we press ‘delete' to remove our personal information. Wise move.
I just wanted to give my dime on the new Treo 755p from Sprint. This phone was touted as the newest latest and greatest phone when it came out about a month ago. I have the 650p from Sprint and have been pretty happy with it since I got it. I … (5 comments)
According to the NAR, 95% of REALTORS have mobile phones! Even more interesting is that in the NAR MLS Survey 2006, 39% of REALTORS who responded said they used their mobile phones to access wireless data from their MLS! That said, the number of North American mobile users that use text … (1 comments)

High Speed Internet Access using your Cell Phone. 
You've got your impulse buyers - i've had those, they love to make offers and write contracts - but... sometimes they pull out of the deal before the end of the attorney review. Ugh. Sometimes you take them out for a month to see tons of houses... then you get that … (7 comments)
Here's just a list of the available tech toys we use daily in our business. I was just wondering what the costs to use these types of tools are in other parts of the country. Also which of these expenses are truly worth the cost. Also, does anyone have any tips … (6 comments)
Just wanted to query people about WAP sites. WAP stands for Wireless Application Protocol, the standard for wireless devices. Essentially, it would make websites optimized for mobile devices such as cell phones and PDAs. Charles Richey mentioned this a while back but it didn't garner many responses.
I have had a lot of questions from Realtors/Brokers regarding the .mobi domain extension. So here goes.
OK I know this may be an outdated blog due to the fact that in the length of time it takes me to write this, technology will have run me over. The new models of FILL IN THE BLANK arrive in the store about 15 minutes after I leave with whatever … (11 comments)
I have the Treo 650 and looking to upgrade does anyone have any suggestions. I would like to have the windows based series and they have so many different models now. I have many friends that use the Blackberry and seem to love it. Mine drops calls frequently and scratches easly. … (1 comments)
I have recently purchased a Palm Treo and can upgrade my key to be on my phone. From my "preview", I have seen that the MLS access from my phone is not as exciting as I thought it would be.I am sure some of you have the access on your phones. … (4 comments)
A couple of months ago Joeann Fossland asked me some questions about what part technology plays in my business. The answer is…Huge!One of the advantages of working solo is that I only have to plan for my own needs. This way I can react to not only what's happening in my … (2 comments)
FREE Blackberry 8700C
I'm considering taking the plunge and getting either a Blackberry or SmartPhone/PDA. At minimum, I want access to my several email Internet accounts and be able to browse the web. Both will do that. The Blackberry is less expensive to purchase. SmatrPhones have a few extra toys that might be fun. … (11 comments)
