This article confirms what I thought.
Nobody wants to say it outright, but the Apple Watch sucks. So do most smartwatches. Every time I use my beautiful Moto 360, its lack of functionality makes me despair. But the problem isn’t our gadgets. It’s that the future of consumer tech isn’t going to come from information devices. It’s going to come from infrastructure.
Been doing some testing of the Blackberry Passport and must say, I am quite impressed.

Thanks to this link. Now will make this my dedicated Wireless Access Point in my lab.
As a Technologist, I wonder if the problems in the Caribbean can be solved by technology. The short answer is yes. For this reason, it is my mandate in life to implement technical solutions to various facets of my life and hopefully, those around me can learn and adapt to the new paradigm that the region will have to adhere to.

Can Distributed Decentralized Automonous Organizations function in the Caribbean ? Yes, it can and will. It’s just a matter of what scale and what functions the communities will want to implement these systems. There will be resistance. But this will only by those who are part of the increasing technology unemployed with signicant financial debt. My suggestion would be :

This is some cool shit…
Visiting folks in Antigua posed a number of problems that knew I of for along time, but have solved differently based on my need for access to the Interwebs. On this trip I couldn’t count on Wifi at certain places, since I was relatively on the go.
Solution : A cheap android with a data plan that I could create I Wifi hotspot(tethering). It came up to $203 ECD ($180 for device; $20 for voice; $13 for 1GB/24 hours for data). About $75 USD.
The device is Alcatel Pop C2
The service is with LIME. Since I have 6+ hour layover in Dominica, I can breeth easier that I can still be connected to the Grid.
Assuming I max out my 1GB per day, I am looking at $5 per day. Rest of my trip will cost me $30 USD.
Was able to skype from my Sprint HTC with it.
More than worth it for the freedom to move around. Next trip will be less as I will have the device already.
If anyone wants more details, like on FB and Fav on Twitter.
