Mancino's

For those that don't know me all that well (or those that don't live in Kalamazoo), one of my favorite dinner spots is Mancino's on Westnedge Avenue. The food is good, the atmosphere is pleasant, and the people here know what I normally order. Since my girlfriend resides in Muskegon and is over an hour away, I frequently find myself on my own for dinner. Since I don't like cooking for one I tend to go out. Since I like Mancino's I end up there frequently... on the order of 3+ times a week.

Mancino's has, today, become even more glorious through the addition of a new piece of technology in my arsenal. One of my few gripes about Mancino's is that they don't have a wireless Internet connection. My new BlackBerry 7130e telephone has resolved the issue. I can plug the phone into my computer via a normal USB cable and can access the Internet at broadband speeds (800 kbps down, 100kbps up according to the test I just ran). I can now access the Internet regardless of location. I'm untethered at last and loving it. From Mancino's... signing off.

Untethered....or more tethered than ever? Sure our mobile phones and laptops have made it possible to stay in touch and do work and play from almost anywhere but we are also at the world beck and call now.

There is no free lunch.
