About
Doug Smith, Owner/Editor in Chief
Doug Smith, also known as DSmithZ28 finds writing in third party very disturbing. By day, I am a mild mannered Automotive High Performance Specialist Hired by Four Australian Companies to improve their sales and marketing efforts in the United States. By night, I am the same person just quite a bit more exhausted…
I have a dear wife who thinks I need my head examined for the amount of time I spend reading, writing, and reviewing Mobility. I have two children who are my heart. A 7 year old Princess, and a 5 year old Con Artist who plays fore mentioned wife like a fiddle. We like to travel and wreak havoc on the Outlaws.
My personal interests Mobility, especially the AT&T Tilt, Hot Rods, Golf, Fishing, aggravating my wife, and traveling.

Tyler Earman, writer
Tyler is a Computer Engineering student with honors in college in his home state of Oklahoma. A bona fide nerd, he spends most of his time on his PC, and has since a very young age. He’s competant in most areas of computing, as well as physics, mathematics, and non-computer related engineering topics, which he enjoys way too much. His personal blog is all about programming, satires, and nerdy jokes.
He chose the AT&T Tilt as an entry point to Pocket PC Mobility (despite having a non-phone HP iPaq earlier in life, and a Palm Vx earlier then that) specifically. He’s very familiar with embedded systems though and has been involved with embedded systems modification since the original Xbox and after receiving his original TI-83.

Matt Chapman, Writer
Matt Chapman aka MobileMatt lives in Salt Lake City Utah and works for 3form as an ISO 9001:2000 Administrator and Quality Supervisor. He has a wife and 2 children. When he’s not spending time with them he’s on the computer reading every blog and/or website having to do with tweaking or improving his phone. Fuze of course…
Matt has his own website (mobilematt.net) which has a lot of themes and skins for his previous phones and soon for his Fuze. He has people ask him to make skins and themes for them all the time which keeps him quite busy.

Greg Johnson, writer
Greg has worked in the technology field since the early 80s, but his real passion is for gadgets. Since his first PDA, a Phillips Nino, he has enjoyed figuring out the limits of mobile technology. He is currently interested in the integration of GPS with Windows Mobile devices and the unique opportunities and challenges it represents. Greg admits that he has never used a Palm device and his experience with Blackberries has been less that positive, so he is a dedicated WM user. When he is not working with technology, he enjoys bicycling (yes, his bike has a mount for his tilt), playing his guitar and reading mysteries and science fiction.
Chris Fox, writer
Chris is a married father of two. He is an IT analyst and has been a dedicated PDA user since 1996 when he purchased a Pilot 1000 within minutes of seeing one.
Chris has a passion for productivity applications, in fact, he’s such a productivity aficianado that his 16-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter share the same birthday. He considers this unplanned coincidence to be validation of his calling; his wife thinks he’s crazy but loves him anyway.
He switched from Palm OS to Windows Mobile in 2003 with the Toshiba e330 and began using converged devices in September 2005 with the Sprint PPC-6700.
Chris lives in Wisconsin where he currently yearns for 3G coverage.
