Just an update- the PlayBase is running really well. I have had an issue with standby battery life. I remembered that at one point I had bought Juice Defender Ultimate for my Epic 4g phone. Several f/w later, it's no longer needed or even installed. How about using it for the PlayBase?
Go to the E4G, re-download JDU [wow- google play keeps track of every app I've download...it's at the very bottom of the My Apps list...keep scrolling...forgot I bought that app...hmmm.....geez....really shouldn't be surprised, but yet I still am...weird...], find the apk and Wifi File Transfer (awesome program, and also AirDroid) it to the PB. After a little tweaking (you have to go into the advanced custom settings and tell JD not to manage the cell radios (there isn't one, but it'll jack the wifi up). Battery capacity is 3000 mAh, charger is 2000mA.
Battery life now is much improved. Now, it doesn't run itself down sitting on the counter overnight.
my trials and tribulations of getting the electronics in my life to work as they should.

First Post
Welcome. There isn't going to be anything 'amazing' or 'awesome'. This is simply a web area that I can permanently store info that I or others may need in the future.
This will be my first nugget of info.
I've been having problems with Google's calendar button for Google toolbar. It stopped refreshing several months ago and I finally got around to troubleshooting it. This was with IE8, several versions of toolbar, and WinXP SP3.
Clicking the button's arrow would result in the message 'Refresh (Incompatible Version)' and nothing else. I tried several refreshes, uninstalling/reinstalling (both toolbar and button) and other various ideas. The solution was more simple than this.
There is an error in the code that google used in writing the button. The code was located in
"C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Toolbar Sync\UJF7R5H77LFM1F2EROHI\Custom Buttons\"
There are several .xml files here. Open each with your favorite file editor until you find the one for the calendar button. It'll be pretty obvious which one it is. Now, scroll down almost to the bottom looking for the line that starts with 'feed'. Now look where it says "http://calendar.google.com/etc/yaddayaddayadda". Simple change http: to https:
That's all it took for me. You may need to restart your browser.
Hope this helps someone else!
