Just Another Thing

Was just over at PalmSolo's site and it hit me that I do not do too much so sharing what I do with the mobile technology that I have. Right now, I am in the process of reviewing the Qool QDA-700 PalmOS feature phone for BargainPDA. I have had it for about a week now and its been a revelation of sorts for me. I use a Treo 600 as my phone and PDA and to have the Qool has been a different experiece for me. I dont want to give too much of that review away, but I will say that the Qool is a much better phone acting device, despite the lack of polish that the Treo shows. Many people that I showed the Qool to prefer it over the Treo as well (some said because its a flip phone, and others because it didnt look as complicated as the Treo).

Another thing that I have been doing throughout the week has been using my Palms as my reading device. I am currently reading an extrabiblical book named Jasher. Jasher is actially mentioned twice in the Bible (in Joshua 10 and 2 Samuel 1) and just that one mention made me do a good bit of searching before finding it, and downloadable for my Palm. Using the Bible+ program, I have been able to get in a good read of a really impressive book. While much of it is following alongside of Genesis, there are places and aspects that are covered in Jasher that arent covered, or glazed over. This book has done some major encouraging to me as well as I have been meditating the whole week on the faith of the fathers of the faith. Seeing the faithfulness of Noah, Enoch, Abraham, Issac, and Jacob (thats as far as I am now) is quite encouraging and very much makes for some good Palm reading.

Now, while I do read extrabiblicals, I do not recommend them to all folks as some of these books have concepts and items in them that are not pleasing to the spiirt. Please make sure to get some accountability when reading these books, or at least prayer and some good historical research.

So yea, that's where I am with mobile tech right now. Who knows, maybe one of these days, mobile tech will take me to something even bigger, where God's hands and feet get involved in making this world look more like His Word.

Something that I didnt know until tonite, was that the book of Jasher is quite an important book in Morman circles. In reading a few sites with info and a breakdown of Jasher, I am beginning to see where reading this can be very grevious to many. I will most definitely keep this in mind as I finish this book. But making note to understand more about extrabiblicals and who was associated where with them.
