I was about a decade ago when I saw an ad for the e-holster. At the time, I was stuffing my pockets with a PDA, cell phone, keys, etc. and really need a better way of carrying all of these gadgets. The e-holster was just right.
I got my first one in 2001 and have worn one ever since. I have had to buy new modules over the years to accommodate the different gadgets. Over the past year, I have replaced all of the components.

The leather shoulder holster had started to show it's age, so this time I went with the nylon version. It also has loops for wired headsets, where the leather one did not. And the Android phone and new eye glass case size required the purchase of new case modules (leather).

I recently had the opportunity to be a guest on the Prosperity Lighthouse Show - Living Your Passion hosted by Nat Couropmitree. Nat is a spiritual entrepreneur, life coach and founder of the Prosperity Lighthouse.
The Prosperity Lighthouse Show was created to inspire and empower entrepreneurs (and individuals thinking about starting a business) to finally do what it takes to Live Their Passion. Nat Couropmitree talks candidly with successful business owners about their life purpose, passions, struggles, staying motivated, success and their future dreams.
The interview is 30 minutes in length.

Enjoy,

In my Geek Tips article outlining my Beta test of Microsoft Windows 7, I needed a computer to install it on. What I built is sweet, specification wise, but the case steals the show. Still photos do not do this case justice, so here's a video. Check out the Geeks in Phoenix Windows 7 test system inside the Antec Skeleton!
Till then,

Unit Testing ASP.NET? ASP.NET unit testing has never been this easy.
Typemock is launching a new product for ASP.NET developers – the ASP.NET Bundle - and for the launch will be giving out FREE licenses to bloggers and their readers.
The ASP.NET Bundle is the ultimate ASP.NET unit testing solution, and offers both Typemock Isolator, a unit test tool and Ivonna, the Isolator add-on for ASP.NET unit testing, for a bargain price.
Typemock Isolator is a leading .NET unit testing tool (C# and VB.NET) for many ‘hard to test’ technologies such as SharePoint, ASP.NET, MVC, WCF, WPF, Silverlight and more. Note that for unit testing Silverlight there is an open source Isolator add-on called SilverUnit.
The first 60 bloggers who will blog this text in their blog and tell us about it, will get a Free Isolator ASP.NET Bundle license (Typemock Isolator + Ivonna). If you post this in an ASP.NET dedicated blog, you'll get a license automatically (even if more than 60 submit) during the first week of this announcement.
Also 8 bloggers will get an additional 2 licenses (each) to give away to their readers / friends.
Go ahead, click the following link for more information on how to get your free license.
