Android on XP (no, not like that)
There’s a nice little writeup over at Talk Android that describes how to use a Java app written by an XDA-developers forum member.
I simply followed the directions in the howto and did an alt-printscreen to get the screenshot over there on the right.
Simple, quick, and free!
Sweet update to Google Maps & Navigation for Android
Including bike routes and places sharing (finally!).

B-Bye, Standby
I have an old laptop set up next to my home theater stuff. I believe there are others that likely have a similar setup. I primarily use mine to play music from a big external drive nice and loud through the best speakers in the house via a little USB sound “card” thingy.
So what, right?
Well, there’re a few things that are important (aside from the above):

Howto: Syncing Sports Calendars on Google Calendar for BlackBerry and Android
I've been cut/pasting this around the Google Mobile Help forums for a while now; I guess it's time for a nice post.
Love seeing those nice sports calendars in your Google Calendar, but hate that you can't sync them over to BlackBerry or Android? Yahoo Sports calendars is the solution.
New Navigon looks nice for iPhone-ys
- Nice, as in it’s just $30 for each of three regions in the US.
- Nice, as in Engadget says you can buy additional areas for $15 each.
- Nice, as in you don’t have to spend $100 on the full maps package when all you do is drive around the neighborhood.
Nice-for-iPhone, as in I’m sure glad I get all this for free on my Droid. ZING! br>

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
New idea: Let me pay Google a few bucks to make my Google Apps account work correctly with my Google Account.
Good morning, Moto
I'm really torn between the upcoming Moto Driod and the recently (kind of) announced Storm 2. I've had five BlackBerrys on Verizon, and I think it's time for a change...
Thanks for the clip, BGR.
