Great list! I’ve been using google voice for VM transcriptions and Vonage for forwarding calls to where I happen to be.

Matt,

I too use the thin Moleskin. It fits better in the back pocket than the regular ones, is a great “backup” for laptop or iPhone, and is much faster for jotting things down “on the go.”

Hi Matt, I’m MD of Sony Ericsson’s social media consultancy and one of the authors on the Xperiancers blog. Glad you like the X1, I couldn’t be without mine, the proper Qwerty keyboard is a must. Adding ‘road warrior’ software is a good idea. You should try the new SPB Traveler panel, great for planning flights, trains, hotels, packing lists, exchange rates, weather.

The other musts for me are OneNote/Evernote (can’t quite decide which I prefer, but both have an X1 app – Evernote is a special panel).

My mobile office set-up is pretty similar to yours, but I use Microsoft LiveMesh rather than Dropbox (which is what I used to use). You get much more free storage and it just feels ’slicker’.

A broadband dongle is also a must, although you can use the X1 as a modem. Works better if you’re using the phone with a bluetooth headset.

A great alternative to the Skype number, if you’ve got it, is Google Voice. I have my number there printed on all my cards, and I can easily login and designate which of my other numbers it rings through to – including Skype, Gizmo or whatever else. Best of all, it can ring them at the same time, so if I’ve got Gizmo or Skype open and my cell is out of range, I’m not fumbling around.
