It was a wonderful day back in May when long time reader Robert Lee of Hired Gun Technologies (Facebook Page) contacted us. He and his wife are travel enthusiasts and had been wanting to learn Androidâ„¢ development. We’ve had a number of developers begin the process of porting State Lines to Android, but roadblocks always came […]

Now Available – The Mobile Internet Handbook
We are thrilled to announce that our new eBook – The Mobile Internet Handbook, is now available! This started as a blog post overviewing options for us RVing nomads … and it turned into a 26,000 word book. We apparently had a lot of information in our brains to dump, way too much for a […]
Faster than Mold – LTE is Growing!
We recently did a map refresh update for our iOS app Coverage?. If you’re not familiar with our little app yet, it overlays coverage maps from the 4 major cellular carriers, and is intended to help us mobile bandwidth junkies better plan our routes to stay connected. It started as a selfish project to better […]
Busy Chilling
We have thoroughly enjoyed the past week parked at Wekiwa Springs State Park. Not only have we gotten lots of rest and relaxation in – we’ve also been able to catch up on some research projects, hung out with friends, went to an intense yoga class (ouch!) and handled some business projects. Oh, and there’s […]

Beware the Overages of March
Ever since Brutus killed Ceasar, the middle of March has been an ominous time of year. Our Story of Bandwidth Betrayal We love our Millenicom 20GB 3G/4G Hotspot Plan (which uses Verizon’s unrivaled LTE network), but at LTE speeds – 20GB can go pretty darned fast. And this is the biggest downside of life with blazing fast […]

Maxed out on Minis! (Our Recent Tech Refresh)
It all started over a year ago when we decided to purchase a friend’s Mini Cooper to be our bus’s toad (towed behind vehicle) for getting around. That was our first Mini. Little did we know that it would be the start of a “Mini” collection. But… Now with our recent addition of a Mac […]
