How to make your cellphone work like a Blackberry Pt. 2
Who needs to pay $100/month for a Blackberry? If you can get e-mail functionality and calendar functionality without spending the big bucks... well, any schlub can pay retail... Just visit calendar.google.com from your phone and see your agenda of upcoming events, complete with details like date, time, location and guest list. See the GoogleBlogPost on the subject.
The trick seems to be to have a compatible phone with the right service plan so that you can take advantage of the free services offered by Google, Yahoo, Teleflip and others. Becoming untethered from our desks gives us the chance of having fun, even though gas prices are going up. Hiking instead of motorcycles, kayaking instead of waterskiing.
