Oh so not what I needed
Aug. 26th, 2009 10:21 amAs most of you know, we live in the boonies. As such, we use cellular for our internet. Jeff has an aircard, and I use my blackberry to tether to my lap top. It generally works pretty well.
Not this morning. Connecting my blackberry to the laptop causes immediate Blue Screen of Death, from the moment I plug it in. Great. I guess we have a Verizon store right near the office – if it’s still doing it tonight I’ll bring it in tomorrow and spend hours trying to get them to figure it out. Tonight, I’ll uninstall and reinstall the software – not because I think it’ll help, but because that’s the first thing they always make you do whenever you take it in or call. I think they hope you’ll just go away.
