iPhone and Android
Looking at the Android and iPhone race right now, one thing seems clear to me. In 10 years, when people look back at the Android / iPhone race. One thing will be clear, Apple exclusivity contract with AT&T will be reason why Android was able to get into the market and rapidly gain market share and actually compete with the iPhone.
Here's my reasoning: The iPhone is great, and so is Android, so how to choose? Many people either don't want to leave there carrier, they are scared to death of the nightmare that is AT&T, or they are tired of waiting for Apple to release the phone to other carriers. Mix that with lots of Android models and price points combined with a public that is increasingly warming up to the smart phone concept.
So while the exclusivity deal with AT&T is a huge boon for Apple, it may also be one for Android.

Great Wi-Fi Analyzer for Android

I tested this on my Droid and it is quite impressive. It should be very helpful for setting up routers.

Review from a recent client
A recent client of mine wrote a review, here it is:
Very few people who own a computer manage to avoid completely the countless dybbuks of the cyber world, whether they are crashed hard drives, nasty viruses, or horror tales about ISP servers. We in River Park and nearby areas are blessed with reliable help in the person of Ryan Petta of East Sacramento Computer Repair. Ryan has installed a new hard drive for me, untangled malfunctioning software, and (most importantly for me) did absolutely heroic battle with that unresponsive beast, A.T.& T., in setting up a new internet connection. When you have the PC blues, give Ryan a call. I think you will be pleased.
