Final thoughts on the Pure
I am at the end of my "Lose the Latptop" challenge and I have a few final thoughts on the PURE.
Overall, I really like it. It has all the features of a mobile phone and great extras that make life easier (and more fun) such as email, facebook, and web browsing (just to name a few).
I will be honest, as a Blackberry user, I wasn't sure that I would like the touchscreen, but that was super easy to get used to and I love how the PURE is Windows based.
Next time I am in the market for a new mobile phone, I will definitely check out the HTC PURE.
In closing, here's a video of my girls dancing that I took with the PURE video camera.
Thanks AT&T for letting me "lose the laptop" for a couple of weeks and try out the PURE!!

Juggling for the Holidays
Working at home can be a crazy ride. My Pure is helping me take video and photos of what I'm working on, so I can quickly email them and not have to take the time to upload everything.

Makes Waiting Easy and Productive
Since I work full time 40 hours a week outside the home and have 2 small kids, 3 dogs (yes, 2), 2 cats, a husband, AND a home to take care of, time is precious. I need to multitask where I can. Thanks to the PURE, that is easier to do than ever.
The last few weeks I took the PURE with me wherever I went in case I had some free time to answer emails, check facebook, etc. In addition to everything above, I am working on building my own small business online. Some things I did while I had a few moments waiting (like at my daughter's dance class) were:
• Approve comments on my blog
• Check email and respond to the ones that I could right away to help clear up my inbox
• Check out facebook and post some pictures of my girls for especially my family to see
• Kept track of our schedule using the calendar
• Made up lists such as things to do and stuff I needed to buy
• Made some important calls
As you can see, the PURE is great to help keep you organized and help you make the most of your time.

Social Media Addict, Facebook, Networking, HTC PURE
Hi my name is BuckDaddy and I am a Social Media Addict. I spend alot of my day being online. I get the shakes if I don't tweet, status update, or upload a picture every hour or so.
Okay so that is a little exaggerated. I do like to be connected and the HTC PURE is great tool for doing so. I use Facebook a bunch. Facebook helps me keep up with my friends and contacts. I have got a bunch of job leads off of my connections with Facebook. The HTC PURE has made it so I can reply to those messages quickly and in a timely manner.
Also I get a lot of local event requests via Facebook and if I am ever looking for something to do in my “free time”, I just log on using the HTC PURE and I know what is going on.
Part of my job search involves networking trying to find a new opportunity. The HTC PURE helps me stay connected and network with the best of them.

Games and HTC PURE
I know I talk alot about being unemployed but it is what is going on in my life right now. I have been on 3 job interviews. Nothing has panned out yet. I use my HTC PURE to brush up on research/homework about the company/person I am interviewing for.
Another benefit of having the HTC PURE is I need to "detox" from research right before I go into the interview. I usually spend about 5 or 6 minutes before the interview in my car.
I whip out the HTC PURE and play a game of solitaire or teeter. This helps me de stress and have a little fun before I go in and have to be on for the interview.
I haven't downloaded any other game off the Windows Market Place yet because these are keeping me busy when I need a little downtime.
