I wouldn’t say that I was “disappointed” with the iPhone 4S. Any rational thought would have said there was basically zero REAL evidence of the iPhone 5 being announced that day – as all of the tech blogs were eager to point out the morning of the announcement. You know… just days after they continued to run story after story of iPhone 5 rumors. Derp. Anyway… the one thing to manage in these situations is [...]
Really short version: it’s awesome. The rest… The 3GS was my first iPhone… so I was bit late to the game in a way. I had owned a first generation iPod Touch a while back and fell in love with the apps (once the App Store opened). I knew I had to be able to get more use out of it on more than just wifi. So as soon as my Helio contract was up [...]
There are currently a lot of news stories and videos floating around the internet and Youtube about possible reception issues with the iPhone 4 (and display problems – but that’s another issue entirely). The gist of the reception problem is that if you hold the iPhone 4 on the sides (as if you were on a call) the radio reception drops like a rock to minimal or no service. If you hold it by the [...]
Sorry, I just don’t consider any sort of scammer (Nigerian or otherwise) an actual organism… but they are evolving none-the-less. Not too long ago I reported about just another sad attempt of someone trying to scam me out of something on Craigslist. It was a quite sad and pathetic attempt (to me) – though I feel like there are many that would likely follow through with it and lose out… Anyway, I was again the [...]
OMG! A new iPhone will probably be released this year! Oh, wait… duh. In an event that is surely one of the craziest things I’ve followed and read about, a possible “prototype” for Apple’s 4th generation iPhone (casually dubbed iPhone 4G or iPhone HD), surfaced in the real world. In a bar. From a drunk guy’s pocket. Thing is, not only did it surface there… he LOST IT THERE. Even doing “real world testing” … [...]
I just submitted a review for the Mophie Juice Pack Air on Amazon… since it is not visible yet (waiting for approval), I thought I’d copy/paste it here for people to read. Suffice it to say that I’m REALLY disappointed in this thing… especially for its price. Here’s my review… I’m going to be going on a long flight soon and wanted a little bit of extra life to my 3GS. Figured why not get [...]
Got a “tweet” from @all4blackberry pointing to an article of 5 Reasons Why Blackberry is Still Better than the iPhone. Thought “hmm… I have a BB and an iPhone, should take a look.” Actually I’ve owned 2 different Blackberrys (7130 and Storm). Here’s a quick rundown of the main points – directly followed by my responses. 1. Security. Some mention of some potential vulnerability in the iPhone and how businesses still aren’t switching to the [...]
