Yay. ProClip sent components to mount iPhone and HTC HD7 phones in my car (one at a time, not both at the same time). I’ll provide a full review after I learn if installation is really as easy as ProClip claims.
Thanks to ProClip for providing their products for evaluation.
I’m always interested in learning tech related to pets. So, I took a quick look at this Subaru sponsored free iPhone app: MapMyDOGWALK. The app tracks your walks like a bazillion other geo-pedometer type apps. But, here’s the thing: What does the app have to do with dogs other than encouraging the dog’s human to take it for a walk?
It does not provide locations of dog parks, suggest walk routes/durations based on breed, list health information based on weather/age/etc. I don’t see an incentive for a person already using an app like RunKeeper to consider using this Subaru sponsored app for dog walks.
Thirty-five (35) of the apps for my iPad &/or iPhone were updated in the past week. Apps that do not have comments in the list below indicates that the update is simply a bug fix release.

Food for thought from TmoNews:
T-Mobile To Offer Additional Unlocked iPhone Support Beginning January 30th
Ever since AT&T Wireless announced “improved” cell sites in my area, my 3G download and upload speeds have FALLEN dramatically. Download speeds are a bit over 1995 ISDN-BRI speeds at the moment. And, there are large areas where no apparent data bandwidth is available (no email, browsing, etc.) despite AT&T 3G signals being “detected” by my iPhone 4. Others have noted the same problems in the same problem areas I’ve noticed. This problem has been going on and getting worse since November 2011.
I’m keeping an eye on this development.

RunKeeper updated its Fitness Reports to provide more information. A premium account (RunKeeper Elite) is needed to view most of it. However, I found the the Total Distance information available for free accounts useful. It lets me look at my walking information in a variety of ways. You can see my totals sorted by day of week in the screenshot above.
The free RunKeeper mobile app is available for a variety of platforms. I use the version for Windows Phone to track my near-daily walking sessions.
