Awww, Daylight Savings Time, when the day never seems to end. Are you PDA-ready?
Unfortunately, the new Daylight Savings Time changes (it's been extended from March 11 to November 4) may leave your smart phone out of sync with the rest of the nation after this weekend. No one wants to be late for a barbecue because their PDA hasn't been upgraded with the latest patch!
So head on over to your smart phone's OS website -- and update your gizmo before the Sunday morning time change makes you late.

If you're a Windows-based Treo user and you're tired of being mocked by your Palm-based Treo friends about the lack of Google Maps for Windows Mobile, then today is your lucky day.
Google just announced the immediate availability of Google Maps Mobile for U.S. Windows Mobile devices. The free program enables users to view interactive maps and satellite imagery. (I can see my house from here!) The program also finds local businesses, gives point-to-point driving directions, and with live traffic updates, you can see which freeway will get you home faster to watch those "Everybody Loves Raymond" reruns.
If your device is connected to or has a built-in GPS receiver, Google Maps Mobile will show you exactly where you are. You'll never have to pull over to ask for directions again.
