Back to reality

After spending near two weeks on a sail boat in the Caribbean with no technology other than a GPS, it’s time to get away from “Island Time” and jump back into the real world. One never really realizes how badly they needed a break until after the fact. There is no better feeling than to not now what time or day it is, and really not care that you don’t know.

Now that I’m back I have a week to get caught up and then it’s back onto a plane to spend some time at “The Head Office”. Despite the fact of being able to digitally commute 2500 miles to work daily, every once in a while you need to go see what the other end of your voice over IP line and VPN tunnel look like. My trip will actually be multi purpose. The plan is to hire some new IT staff, meet with some clients about wireless data connectivity and mobile devices, including RIM’s BlackBerry, PocketPC Phones, and of course the Tablet PC.

Now to figure out what I missed… What happened at TechEd? What’s in the new VS2005 tech preview? And why haven’t you been to Channel9 yet?
