<p>Not sure about ideal settings, but Apple.com has some suggestions for Wi-Fi not working on your iPhone, in your hone network:</p> <ol> <li><p>Check the manufacturer's website for your Wi-Fi router for firmware or software updates.</p></li> <li><p>Verify the Wi-Fi router can broadcast an 802.11b/g signal. If using a 802.11n Wi-Fi router, consult the manual/documentation for how to configure the Wi-Fi router for 802.11b/g compatibility.</p></li> <li><p>If you are using multiple WEP keys on your Wi-Fi router, try configuring your Wi-Fi router to use only a single WEP key.</p></li> <li><p>Try or resetting (or turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router. Note: If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.</p></li> <li><p>Disable wireless encryption or security on the Wi-Fi router to rule out encryption issues. If this resolves the issue, try using a different encryption or security protocol.</p></li> </ol>

<p>Hello Mr. Man - I'm not sure I have the answer yet, but I recently read an article on how to erase all the personal data from your iPhone. I'm not sure if there is an app that will work like Disk Utility, but I will do some more research.</p> <p><strong>Method to Scrub All Personal Data</strong></p> <p>The trick is simple. Scrub the memory yourself by adding new data redundantly in the same location. This is not official but you can count on it 100%.</p> <ol> <li><p>Use the restore option in iTunes to Restore Phone from within iTunes.</p></li> <li><p>un-check all the choices on the “Info” tab. So it won’t synchronize personal information you’re your calendars, electronic mails, confidential contacts or your highly secret bookmarks.</p></li> <li><p>On the tabs named Photos, Podcasts and Video, uncheck the synchronize option (sync).</p></li> <li><p>Form 3 big playlists with the size matching the maximum capacity of your phone</p></li> <li><p>On the Music tab, select the first of your 3 playlists to synchronize with the phone. Note whether the memory storage bar at the bottom looks full after finishing.</p></li> <li><p>Repeat the step 5 for the remaining playlists</p></li> </ol> <p>That does it all. Your data is gone for good.</p> <p><strong>Why 3 Times:</strong></p> <p>The reason is iPhones NAND flash work different than a hard drive. Instead of overwriting in the freed space it uses memory blocks that are not used recently and this continues till it wraps around and starts from the beginning.</p> <p>Synchronizing 3 big playlists must make certain that the flash memory has wrapped around thus guarantee that any of the private information you had stocked up is cleaned out by fresh data. I strongly suggest everyone to do this before selling their iPhones.</p> <p><a href="http://www.clivir.com/lessons/show/how-to-format-iphone-memory-completely-scrub-all-data.html" rel="nofollow">via</a></p>

<p>Yes, robinator. You can only add new calendars through a local program on your computer, or Mobile Me, if you have the service. There should be a feature to add new calendars, but I guess Apple likes to be different. Some info below,</p> <p></p> <h2>About Calendar</h2> <p>Calendar lets you view individual calendars for your different accounts or a combined calendar for all accounts. You can view your events in a continuous list, by day, or by month, and search events by title, invitee, or location.</p> <p>You can sync iPhone with the calendars on your computer. You can also make, edit, or cancel appointments on iPhone, and have them synced back to your computer. You can subscribe to Google, Yahoo!, or Mac OS X iCal calendars using a CalDAV or iCalendar (.ics) account. If you have a Microsoft Exchange account, you can receive and respond to meeting invitations.</p> <p></p> <h2>Syncing Calendars</h2> <p>You can sync Calendar in either of the following ways:</p> <ul> <li>In iTunes, use the iPhone preference panes to sync with iCal or Microsoft Entourage on a Mac, or Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC when you connect iPhone to your computer.</li> <li>In Settings on iPhone, select Calendar in your MobileMe or Microsoft Exchange accounts to sync your calendar information over the air.</li> </ul> <p></p> <h2>Viewing Your Calendar</h2> <p>You can view individual calendars for your different accounts or a combined calendar for all accounts.</p> <p></p> <h2>View a different calendar:</h2> <p>Tap Calendars, then select a calendar. Tap All Calendars to view combined events from all calendars.</p> <p>You can view your calendar events in a list, by day, or by month. The events for all of your synced calendars appear in the same calendar on iPhone. Switch views: </p> <p>Tap List, Day, or Month.</p> <ul> <li><strong>List view:</strong> All your appointments and events appear in a scrollable list.</li> <li><strong>Day view:</strong> Scroll up or down to see the events in a day. Tap <img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/adding%20calendar/il_backbrowse.png" alt="alt text">or <img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/adding%20calendar/il_forwardbrowse.png" alt="alt text"> to see the previous or next day’s events.</li> <li><strong>Month view:</strong> Tap a day to see its events.

When Time Zone Support is off, Calendar displays events in the time zone of your current location as determined by the network time.</p> <p></p> <h2>Subscribing to and Sharing Calendars</h2> <p>You can subscribe to calendars that use the CalDAV or iCalendar (.ics) formats. Many calendar-based services, including Yahoo!, Google, and the Mac OS X iCal application, support either format.</p> <p>Subscribed calendars are read only. You can read events from subscribed calendars on iPhone, but can’t edit them or create new events. You also can’t accept invitations from CalDAV accounts. </p> <h2>Subscribe to a CalDAV or .ics calendar:</h2> <ol> <li>In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.</li> <li>Choose Other, then choose either Add CalDAV Account or Add Subscribed Calendar.</li> <li>Enter your account information, then tap Next to verify the account.</li> <li>Tap Save.</li> </ol> <p>Apple provides links to a number of free iCal calendars—for national holidays or sports events, for example—that you may want to subscribe to. The calendars are automatically added to iCal on your desktop when you download them. Go to <a href="http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars." rel="nofollow">www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars.</a></p> <p>You can also subscribe to an iCal (or other .ics) calendar published on the web by tapping a link to the calendar you receive in an email or text message on iPhone. </p> <h2>Adding Calendar Events to iPhone</h2> <p>You can also enter and edit calendar events directly on iPhone. Add an event: </p> <p>Tap <img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/adding%20calendar/il_add.png" alt="alt text"> and enter event information, then tap Done.</p> <p>You can enter any of the following:</p> <ul> <li>Title</li> <li>Location</li> <li>Starting and ending times (or turn on All-day if it’s an all-day event)</li> <li>Repeat times—none, or every day, week, two weeks, month, or year</li> <li>Alert time—from five minutes to two days before the event</li> </ul> <h2>Heading</h2> <p><em>When you set an alert, the option to set a second alert appears.

<p>In my opinion the iPhone 3G is your <em>best buy</em> as the software is robust, has great interoperability between other Apple Products, and you have the App store. It's a iPod + phone. It all depends though on what you want. Android is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source" rel="nofollow">open-source</a>, which allows for open development, and has little to no restrictions, unlike the iPhone. If your not a hacker, then maybe the iphone is your best choice, as you really have all you need, and its a great product; game changer. Notice how I did not mentioned the Blackberry Storm :)</p>

As originally installed, your Windows Mobile Today screen looks something like this:</p> <p><img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/do%20not%20delete/Screen%20shot%202010-01-19%20at%206.35.24%20PM.png" alt="alt text" /></p> <p><em>Windows Mobile Today screen as originally installed on a Windows Mobile 6 phone</em></p> <p>It does not include shortcuts to programs, instant weather updates, or detailed information about your battery life. But third-party developers have made plug-in programs for the Today screen that can provide more in-depth information and shortcuts. One example of this is the Spb Pocket Plus (from <a href="http://spbsoftwarehouse.com" rel="nofollow">http://spbsoftwarehouse.com</a>), which looks like this:</p> <p><img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/do%20not%20delete/Screen%20shot%202010-01-19%20at%206.36.54%20PM.png" alt="alt text" /></p> <p><em>Windows Mobile Today screen with Spb Pocket Plus installed on a Windows Mobile 6 phone</em></p> <p>Each of the stars is a tab that provides a shortcut to battery life, programs, recently viewed web pages, and more.</p> <p>Another popular Today screen program is the Omega One Battery Pack Pro <a href="http://www.omegaone.com" rel="nofollow">from</a>.</p> <p><img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/do%20not%20delete/Screen%20shot%202010-01-19%20at%206.37.01%20PM.png" alt="alt text" /></p> <p><em>Windows Mobile Today screen with Battery Pack Pro installed</em></p> <p>Users can also download alternative interfaces for Windows Mobile. Two of the best alternative interfaces are the Spb Mobile Shell <a href="http://spbsoftwarehouse.com" rel="nofollow">from</a> and WisBar Advance Desktop <a href="http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com" rel="nofollow">from</a>.</p> <p><img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/532254/do%20not%20delete/Screen%20shot%202010-01-19%20at%206.37.10%20PM.png" alt="alt text" /></p> <p><em>Windows Mobile Today screen, with Spb Mobile Shell installed (left) and with WisBar Advance Desktop installed (right)</em></p> <p>These customized screens provide the same information as the Today screen plug-ins but with a more streamlined interface.</p> <p><img src="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;ct=res&amp;cd=9&amp;ved=0CCgQFjAI&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fdownload.microsoft.com%2Fdownload%2F3%2F6%2F9%2F3696E87D-A4E8-4C16-BE02-ECD4219482CD%2FMastering%5FWindows%5FMobile%5F6.pdf&amp;ei=RGtWS6btO4-OtAOdzqXqAQ&amp;usg=AFQjCNGZxtJdFxqsqo7qv9MlgZfW3dGkbw&amp;sig2=HE%5FSjbvWJ87H-U5WwcsnzA" alt="via" /></p>

<p>A couple of big features: Bootstrap Mode and Email-Password logins and a raft of bug fixes.</p> <h2>Bootstrap Mode</h2> <p>Bootstrap mode lets admins relax reputation requirements for participation while they get their site started. During Bootstrap Mode all users can:</p> <ul> <li>Post Questions</li> <li>Post Answers</li> <li>Comment</li> <li>Create Tags</li> <li>Re-Tag Questions</li> <li>Vote</li> </ul> <p>Bootstrap mode will be enabled by default on newly created sites (those created after beta 6 is fully deployed), <strong>but it will be left off in existing sites</strong>. There is an admin option to enable it on the site rules tab.</p> <p>We're also adjusting the throttling mechanism, to allow for burstier usage. So instead of getting a rolled up newspaper in the face if you try to answer more than one question in 3 minutes, we hold off until you try to post a whole bunch questions/answers/comments in a sustained manner.</p> <ul> <li>Relax reputation limits on tag creation</li> <li>Bootstrap mode</li> <li>We're making it allow for burstier usage</li> </ul> <h2>Authentication</h2> <p>Email-password logins, yay! New sites will default to allowing both OpenID and email-password logins while <strong>existing sites will be left OpenID only</strong>, there's an admin option to change it on the site rules tab.</p> <p>The implementation of account recovery allows any user that has entered their email address (including unregistered users) to have a recovery link sent to their email account.</p> <ul> <li>Account recovery</li> <li>OpenID login page cleanup</li> <li>Formatting issue with safari</li> <li>Email-Password logins</li> <li>Authentication changes that should fix the random logouts (redux)</li> </ul> <h2>Assorted Bug Fixes</h2> <ul> <li>StackExchange now serves compressed content</li> <li>All of the CSS is served in one big blob</li> <li>Logo/theme/favicon versioning (redux)</li> <li>Bronze badges in recent badges</li> <li>Subjective question warnings</li> <li>Unblock Slurp (redux)</li> <li>Improved sidebar hiding: Just delete everything in them.</li> <li>Close <li> in community user's profile</li> <li>Down votes no longer make a question answered</li> <li>Correct flair icon URL when served to remote sites</li> <li>Ask page inconsistency</li> <li>Fix robots.txt encoding</li> <li>Update view counts more consistently</li> </ul> <h2>Migration</h2> <p>Migration to beta 6 should be largely transparent: both email-password log-ins and bootstrap mode will be disabled by default for all existing sites. There were some minor CSS changes to the header (removed max-width), and to the home page display of questions with accepted answers (they had incorrect padding), so you may want to double-check those after the migration.</p> <p>meta.stackexchange.com got migrated today: Monday January 18th and should things continue to run smoothly the rest of the sites will be migrated Wednesday morning (January 20th) between 9:00am and 12:pm EST (UTC-4).</p> <p>We will once again be employing load balancer trickery that should mean that your site should not experience any downtime; however, if your site is flaky Wednesday morning, keep in mind that we're doing a migration and things might misbehave for a little bit.</p> <h2>Status Tags</h2> <p>We're going to sweep through the bugs/feature-requests and update their tags once the migration is finished and you can actually use the features we're describing here.</p>

wouldn't the easiest way be to enter it yourself, one time. It seems like your making it much harder then it should be. Entering wpa passwords is easy, even if they are long. The only time you need to renter them would be on a wipeout, or you remove the profile.

Hi armi - I understand the iPhone does not have a task manager, but it does sync with outlook currently. If you did not find any in the app store, try jailbroken apps

I'm not I understand what you need a task manager for outlook syncing? The iphone does sync with outlook, but I think there is more to your question, but its not clear. Can you elaborate?

Nope! It's a standard app, under accessories. Try that out and see if it helps.
