Doctors and other medical professionals who’ve made the move to Android will now have access to PEPID’s reference app. The drug database is one of the most comprehensive on the market, offering dosage calculators as well as interactions notifications. The diagnostic tools packed into this subscription-based app are certainly extensive.
The PEPID Android app is available for those running OS version 1.6 or later, but most mid-to-recent model smartphones compatible with Google’s mobile platform should be able to handle the app with an upgrade. According to
PEPID’s site, the service also requires an active internet connection for illustrations, dictionary definition links, and the diagnosis generator.
The subscription model gives professionals access to upgrades and reference additions. And if you’ve been subscribing to a Platinum edition of the service before, you can transfer to the Android platform with an email to PEPID’s support team. PEPID also offers group-rate subscriptions for hospitals, schools, and other medical organizations who would like to integrate the database into their services.

Plus, you can expect that the price on the Droid will drop once the Droid 2 comes out. 
The other day, I had the opportunity to revive a dead BlackBerry Curve 3300. The device simply didn't turn on. Removing the battery and reinserting it did nothing. When I connected it to my PC, the device was recognized, so I used BlackBerry Desktop Software and I tried to reinstall the OS (flash the ROM). That didn't work, but when I went to flash an older ROM, the device woke up and it started working.
I realize that Windows Phone 7 is coming out at the end of the year, so all these apps written for Windows Mobile 6.5 probably won't run on the brand new Windows Phone 7. However, let me write about Twitter apps for those of you who may be hanging on to your Windows Mobile smartphones for a bit longer.
