    Block Apps installation

    I work at a hospital and we are considering purchasing Android devices for our staff to use around the campus to receive tickets for jobs that come up for their areas. Are there any good apps that we can use to lockdown the devices so that internet, movie, etc., use could be blocked? We...

    RAM discrepencies

    According to the press release this has 512mb of RAM (a paltry number, I believe) and their site it has 1GB of memory (which I still think is too small). Any ideas what to believe? I would hope that Motorola isn't going to hold back on us and only put 512mb in it.

    Moto X precision cursor control on Droid?

    3G down on Droid???

    It looks like 3G is down for only Droids! How could this be? Any ideas? I had emails from this morning when I got up at 5 AM EST but when I tried listening to a podcast on my way to work about 30 minutes later I had no 3G. :(

    Phone locks up while using Listen

    Since the latest update of Listen, my phone seems to shut itself off when I'm listening to a podcast and I get an email notification.

    Just a fun poll: How many people use Wifi over Data? I haven't had a reason to use Wifi instead of Data.

    Verizon blocking IRC?

    I've tried using two different clients and everytime I try to connect to an IRC server it just times out. Has anyone else had this, or has anyone been successful connecting to IRC on the Verizon network? Just FYI, I am using a Moto Droid if it matters.
