Or is this a one-time event for them? Will charity:water get contact information for the donors so they have the opportunity to steward them and build ongoing relationships? Will the donors have any loyalty to charity:water? I fear it will be the latter. I hope they prove me wrong.

I’ve already mentioned Beth Kanter’s extensive discussion of Twestival , an attempt to raise $500,000 for the group charity:water using Twitter. While it is tempting to succumb to the “raise one-time money fast” approach that social media fundraising can indeed accomplish, DON’T DO IT.

I installed a battery meter app that shows the charge as a percentage and could watch the charge drain away any time the phone was on. Every time I connect the phone to my computer via USB it tries to install Windows drivers and Verizon software, even though I already did that. I don't see a way to turn this off.

I'm going to give Chapura and CompanionLink another try when I have time. I'm told that syncing wouldn't be a problem if I was using MS Exchange instead of a desktop installation of Outlook. But I don't see the need to pay $10/month for Exchange hosting. Usability. I really like the Pre's user interface. Handy when working in landscape mode.

The screen is responsive most of the time, but doesn't always figure out what I want to do (e.g., I've found wi-fi response times to be wildly unpredictable (no surprise).
