Free Smart Recorder for this weekend only https://www.perivision.net/wordpress/2011/03/free-smart-recorder-for-this-weekend-only/ https://www.perivision.net/wordpress/2011/03/free-smart-recorder-for-this-weekend-only/#respond Sat, 12 Mar 2011 17:26:38 +0000 http://www.perivision.net/wordpress/?p=4625 Read More]]> I have not used this, just popped up in my email.  Looks pretty good.  Straight forward voice recorder with image and text annotation.  I may download it later and give it try.

Smart Recorder is the ultimate time based note taking tool for the iPhone or iPad. It allows the typing of textual notes as time based tags while recording. During playback, you can change the speed to quickly skim through less interesting pieces of a meeting. After you are done, you can use Box.net to archive your session or transfer it to another device.

•Time based tags allow you to quickly jump back to important portions of a recording.
•Take pictures while recording on the iPhone. The pictures are stamped with the time in the recording at which they were taken.
•If you turn the phone upside down to get better reception for the microphone, then screen will rotate.
•Auto pause suspends recording when there is no sound. Recording starts again when talking resumes—perfect for conference room meetings.
•Multi speed playback allows you to skim uninteresting conversations quickly.
•A forward arrow skips 30 seconds of the recording.
•A back button allows you to repeat the last 30 seconds of the recording.
•You can append to existing recordings.
•You can record while the phone is in sleep mode.
•A slider allows you to quickly navigate to any part of a long recording.
•You can even tap on the recording time and enter a numeric time at which you want to playback from.
•Smart Recorder provides five methods to transfer sessions back to your computer. First, there is WiFi sync. Your iPhone becomes an HTTP server and you simply point your web browser to the address given by your phone and save the recordings (and page with your tags) using the browser. Second, Smart Recorder supports SyncDocs. If you download and install SyncDocs, then you can use it to save all the files related to your session. Third, you can upload the pictures to Box.net. If you have never used Box.net, Smart Recorder can set you up with a free account. This account will allow uploading of recordings of 25MB (or almost 5 minutes). If you upgrade your Box.net account, then you can upload recordings of up to 1GB or over three hours. Fourth, you can upload to Dropbox. Finally, you can email your recordings.
•For any export method, Smart Recorder converts files to a desired format (WAV,AAC,CAF,…) and a desired sampling rate (8000,22050,44100).

T-Mobile to offer free phone on the 10th and 11th. https://www.perivision.net/wordpress/2011/02/t-mobile-to-offer-free-phone-on-the-10th-and-11th/ https://www.perivision.net/wordpress/2011/02/t-mobile-to-offer-free-phone-on-the-10th-and-11th/#respond Tue, 08 Feb 2011 07:10:34 +0000 http://www.perivision.net/wordpress/?p=4294 Read More]]> Talk about an epic day.  Seems this coming weekend will be a battle between not Only AT&T (to stop the bleeding) Verizon to speed it up, but also T-Mobile to get in to some of the blood bath as well.

Some of the details are not clear, like do you have to pay first and get a refund later, but basically if you sign up for a two year plan, you get a free phone.  ANY phone!  4G, low cost tethering, etc..  I think T-Mobile is sensing a willingness of people to leave AT&T and want to try to get in on the action.  By claiming the nations largest 4G network, as well as aggressive pricing AND their 4G speed looking to double to 42Mbps towards the end of year, its pretty darn tempting.   Although I am on the reserve list for the Verizon iPhone, this offer really made me pause.. However, one of the biggest reason I want to leave AT&T is the poor reception I have to live with. I’m not sure going to T-Mobile will make that any better… but to save $200 on a phone and have 4G and have better pricing and tethering at $15…  I’m really thinking about it.  And if that is enough to make me pause, then I’m sure its enough to get a few people to sign up.

Beware though, you may want to get in line early. I have a feeling they might have a limit.
