MS solutions are killing me today
*sigh*
Okay, so today here is the situation with my Windows solutions. I have a 1 month old new ThinkPad Tablet (X61) which I really enjoy. However, many times a week I will go to put it to sleep and it will turn off the LCD, but never sleep. The only way to get it back is to force shut down and deal with the data loss. Come on, really? My MacBook Pro closes and opens all of the time with none of these problems. Dammit -- I want our stuff to work! So now I have to rebuild some stuff on my laptop.
And so we move on to my brand new 1 day old Blackjack II. Ah, yes, good times with that as well. I decided to sell my iPhone and move back to the Blackjack, not only to stick with Microsoft solutions, but to have my calendar, etc. So I pick up the BJ II yesterday. I charged it overnight and set out today with it. At around 10, I plugged it into my computer to install some stuff. It sat there on the power of USB. I go to a meeting with it and by 3 PM -- low battery alert! WTF? I charge it again another 1.5 hours. 1 hour later, low battery alert. Come on, really? No bluetooth enabled, just push Exchange, and you can't last 1 flipping day?
*sigh*
So, let's review. Nice Thinkpad X61, can't sleep. MacBook Pro, sleeps just fine and wakes up in like 2 seconds. My iPhone ran for 2 days and that was me doing heavy surfing. My BJII, not so much.
Shoot me.
