As you may have noted earlier today, my phone phobia revolves around turning my Touch Pro into a pancake.  However, if my phone were equipped with Gorilla Glass like the new Dell Streak, a decreased sense of panic would shiver through my body when awakening next to the gadget.  Heck, I might even place it under my pillow while sleeping as to lessen my reach to silence the ringing.

The winner is said to have won the “rubber”. A game ends when one partnership scores 100 or more points below the line.

Question of the Day:  What phobias do you have regarding your phone?

My HTC Touch Pro serves as an alarm clock, running SPB Time at 10:30 pm to tell my wife and I to go to bed after dosing on the couch.  It also wakes me up at 4 AM to start my consultant work.

Occasionally, and more times that I would like to admit, I find that a few minutes to 30 after the alarm goes off, I spring up to find that the Touch Pro is laying beside me.  Talk about your rude awakening.  Quickly I check to make sure that the screen is not smashed, or that the phone has not met with some other horrifying fate.

And there you have it – my phone phobia.  I’m afraid my phone will become an expensive pancake due to my inability to rise when the alarm sounds.  What are your phone phobias?  Hit the comments below and share them with us!

For all you iPad lovers willing to deliver your preferred device in the work environment, FourthFrame Technologies has released version 1.0 of their Project Pad, a project management application taking full advantage of the new Apple device.

The new app is called Project Pad and is designed with both professionals and non-professionals in mind. It features preferences for portrait and landscape use, visual alerts for late tasks, timeline zoom in/out, and much more.
Most people manage projects at home, at work, or at school and Project Pad has been developed with both professionals and non-professionals in mind.

Here is the press release:

Ohio based FourthFrame Technologies today announces Project Pad 1.0, their new project management app for the revolutionary iPad device. Designed with both professionals and non-professionals in mind, Project Pad is easy and fun to use while leveraging the unique capabilities of iPad. Project Pad remains one of the 10 Top Business Apps in the App Store, featuring independent preferences for portrait and landscape use, visual alerts for late tasks, timeline zoom in/out, and so much more.

Dublin, Ohio - Apple’s red-hot iPad hit the 1 Million unit sales mark in its first month and it is clear from app sales that the device is hitting a sweet spot with business users. Word processing, number crunching, and presentation apps are among the hottest sellers. But one key business app category has remained notably vacant: Project Management. That vacancy began to be filled this week with the release of Project Pad 1.0 from FourthFrame Technologies.

Response from App Store customers has been overwhelming, catapulting Project Pad into the 10 Top Business Apps, the 10 Top Grossing Business Apps, and the Top 100 Overall Grossing Apps for iPad within its first few days. “The response has been incredible,” said Ty Jacobs, Principal and co-founder of FourthFrame. “Nearly every day we have people thanking us for delivering a real project management app for this exciting new platform, and congratulating us on being the first. That is a fantastic pay off for our hard work.”

Project Pad’s tag line is “Project Management Made Easy.” Jacobs, a veteran developer and project manager who has a passion for simplicity, usability, and enticing interfaces, designed Project Pad’s feature set and user interface with that goal in mind. “Any project manager will tell you that managing projects is a complex and challenging realm with notoriously confusing software,” said Jacobs, “and we were determined to make it easy and fun while leveraging the unique capabilities of iPad”. The initial reaction indicates that FourthFrame may have done just that.

For professionals, Project Management is a discipline that takes years to learn and the requisite tools can be daunting to use. But most people manage projects of one form or another whether at home, at work, or at school. So FourthFrame designed Project Pad with both professionals and non-professionals in mind. The rapid uptake and feedback indicates that both classes were quite eager for this niche to be filled.

Feature Highlights:

• Easy to use
• Touch-centric
• Projects, Tasks, Task Owners
• Task Successor/Predecessor links
• Table & Gantt views with 3-Position split
• Independent preferences for Portrait & Landscape
• Timeline zoom in/out
• Task indent/outdent (Parenting)
• Task Percent Done
• Visual Alerts for late tasks

Device Requirements:

• Compatible with iPad
• Requires iPhone OS 3.2 or later
• 2.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Project Pad 1.0 is $9.99 (USD) and available now worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Business category.
