Will the instant-on notetaking capability of the iPad help make it popular for "the rest of us"?

It seems obvious that the iPad will be popular in verticals, like education or medical. But for the everyday user, will it be able to replace the daily planner book or moleskin?

I admit it freely, I'm a compulsive list maker. And for being as technically sophisticated as I am, I still have not been able to consistently make myself to put to-dos or rough project plans or notes into a CRM system, or Outlook.

Omni's software excel at list making, planning, brainstorming, diagramming - coupling their sophistication with a readily available user-friendly interface may be what it finally takes to keep me paper free.

Also of note, EverNote (www.evernote.com) is also a great notetaking app that is free!

Have a question? Want to buy Omni Group software - give us a call at 770-229-9424 or visit us on the web at http://www.libertytech.net.

DoubleTwist Launches iTunes-Like Desktop Application for Amazon MP3 Store

iTunes alternative! Tired of slow performance of iTunes.... Want to sync to your phone?

 

From their site

We feel that just like you don't use a different browser for every web site you visit (Firefox to read the NY Times, IE to stream Hulu, Chrome to browse YouTube, etc) you shouldn't have to use iTunes for Apple products, Nokia software for Nokia phones, Sony software for Sony products, etc. The typical household today has many such devices and there is a need for a simple and powerful software that connects them.

Mac News

VMware today announced the October 27th launch of VMware Fusion 3, a significant update to the company's virtualization solution that allows Mac users to run Windows applications right alongside OS X applications. The new version reportedly brings over 50 new features and improvements, including Snow Leopard optimization and full Windows 7 compatibility.

Key highlights include:

- Optimized for Snow Leopard. Built from the ground up for the Mac, VMware Fusion 3 leverages Mac OS X Snow Leopard's advanced architecture with a new 64-bit core engine and native support for the 64-bit kernel, delivering even better Windows on Mac performance.

- Ultimate Windows 7 Experience. VMware Fusion 3 will be the first to enable the full Windows 7 experience, side-by-side with your Mac, complete with Windows Aero and Flip 3D.

- Switching Made Easy. VMware Fusion 3 will make it easy for users to bring their entire PC to their Mac in a few easy steps - wirelessly or with a simple Ethernet cable - allowing customers to protect investments in existing Windows software, and to keep using the programs they still need.

- Best-in-Class 3D Graphics. Support for OpenGL 2.1 and DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 3 will enable users to run their favorite 3D Windows games and applications - all without rebooting.

VMware Fusion 3 is now available for pre-order at a suggested price of $79.99, with upgrading pricing of $39.99 available to current VMware Fusion users.
