iPhone Update For World Peace?

admin — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 17:53:00 +0000

As I was playing around with my freshly updated iPhone I noticed that I had forgotten entirely about North Korea and Iran threatening the world with nuclear annihilation. I’m not sure if this means I am ignorant because I could let a little gadget such as an iPhone make me forget about these world events or… if the iPhone could be the answer that we have looked for since the beginning of time. World Peace!!! Either way, I really like the copy and paste function on the iPhone and I am sure I will spend countless more hours discovering how to take up more of the time I should be using for coming up with real solutions to our pressing questions. Does anyone know who Paris Hiltion slept with this week? We do!

Rumor or Truth? iPhone 3.0 Software Update Release 10AM PST

admin — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 13:56:00 +0000

It is rumored that the new iPhone 3.0 Software Update will be available at 10:00AM PST. iPhone has not and will not tell when they will make the update available. I am guessing that is because if they did they would have every geek in the world trying to download the update at the same exact time and it would really hurt their servers. This way they get to have people download on a more scattered basis. Stay Tuned, I will be there at 10AM and give you a heads up…

In the mean time, read up on some of the new features available such as Find My iPhone. I also read this article on what new features such as video and 3 megapixel camera will be available on the new iPhone 3GS.

Once Upon A Time People Got All Excited About E-Books, Then, Not So Much. But Can The IPhone Make The Kindle Hip?

admin — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 18:48:00 +0000

The Really: Nobody is ever to going to make people read books electronically.

Well how about if they put the Kindle on your IPhone? Well that’s a different story.

Many years ago publisher’s got all excited about e-books…all those messy costs for paper and binding and the remainders, sheesh the remainders. The print to demand model looked perfect to reduce the costs of books but there was just one problem. Except for the pricing and royalty structure of books, the book is THE PERFECT technology. It is portable, can be read on a plane, a train, or under a tree, or in bed. It doesn’t require electricity. Most don’t weigh too much and they are solid things which can be placed on a shelf for easy access or thrown against a wall if they pique.

The Kindle promised to be a nice cross between the e-paper requirements for distribution of books but didn’t electrify (pun) the reading public…what is left of it.

But what if you put the Kindle on an IPhone? Now you are talking. A hardware device as much beloved as a book itself. Now we are getting somewhere.
