Less than 2 years ago, I bought a "cutting edge" Android smartpone, called the Samsung Infuse. Almost two years later, Samsung has yet to release a single update to Gingerbread (from Froyo) over the cell network. A few months ago, they were nice enough to put out a buggy Gingerbreak update to the device, but it was hosted on their website, required me to install software on my computer just to load it, and it then fa…

Heh, I have the same problem with my Galaxy S1... Count yourself lucky, I'm still stuck on Eclair!

Samsung is frequently referred to as "the only android carrier that makes any money". One wonders whether such Apple-sque upgrade forcing has contributed to their financial success.

Have you considered the Trello apps for smartphones and tablets as an alternative?

If you're waiting for corporations to "do the right thing", you're going to be waiting a long time. At least with most Android hardware you can DIY:

My biggest problem with Trello is that they don't support multiple identities. I use it for work and have also created a personal account. What I would expect is a nice dropdown to switch identities (eg like you get with Google or Github). The mobile apps also only have one identity. A work around is in theory to keep logging out and back in again as the different users, but this is extremely tedious and in my case c…

I've created multiple boards. Right now I'm at three: one for my personal life, one for my public work life (i.e. shared with colleagues), and one for my private work life that has my own to-dos, lists, etc. Then you use the board dropdown similar to what you wanted for users.

Those are all personal, although your last one includes work information. My work has a separate identity from me, has a separate email address, and has confidential information that needs to be bounded by that work. Intermingling it with boards associated with my personal identity is wrong, and in violation of several work NDAs with partners.

It should also be the case that my work can disable/cancel my work account and be confident of no further work related access by me.

This is what Trello organizations are designed for. An org is a collection of boards and a group of people, with permission control.

This is Fog Creek's org: https://trello.com/fogcreek

You'll just see our public boards, but we also have boards that are visible only to org members. Granting or restricting access to all of them is as simple as adding or removing a user. You can create and be a member of as many orgs as you want.

These sort of product celebrations (with users providing feedback on what the product means to them) are fantastic. As a user it's great to be able to see what a product means to others too and how they're using it. We had a similar page for a website we run and reading user feedback is so much fun, companies should do this sort of thing more often. Trello only reached 500,000 users in July of this year, that's some…

I think you mean, July of last year.

I have, in the past 3 months, been forced to work in a location where the only internet access is on machines with IE8 on them (and no ability to install Chrome Frame). The loss of Trello has absolutely FUCKING sucked. I'm sorry for the profanity, but it is an abysmally awful process to have to STOP using Trello and go back to emailing spreadsheets back and forth or shudder MS Project. I think this huge drop in my pr…

Why can you not run Chrome portable or Firefox portable from a USB flash drive?

I have two installations on Chrome, with a different Trello account signed in on each one.

On mobile I have two different browsers signed into two different Trello accounts.
