iPhone 3.0 Software Update

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

Hi, I’m Sam and i’ll be ranting about all things Apple. I thought i’d start with a hot topic right now…

iPhone 3.0 software has been released to developers, and was showcased in typical Apple fashion on March 17th 2009 despite a distinct lack of Steve Jobs! This software promises iPhone and iPod Touch users over 100 new features and is due to be released this summer.

N95. Bigger. Better. And about time!

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

In recent years Nokia have strayed from making revolutionary phones that shake up the market. When the 3310 was released back in the day, I cant remember any other phone I wanted more.

However after that many other makes of phone took my interest, they were a hell of alot more cutting edge and looked a darn sight better than their Nokia counterparts.

That is ofcourse until the N95 came along, I dont know what it is about it but it looks good. Yes it is a brick, but thats what Nokias are meant to be.

Even in this modern day and age Nokia have still got the right idea, Building the ’slimmest’ phone isnt neccessarily the best. Building a ‘brick’ that has alot more stuff built into it than the competition is better.

Maybe thats the geek in me speaking, but im sure that even the high ranking exectutive on his coffee break likes to listen to a kick ass music player or watch a whole episode of Family Guy to pass the time.

A couple lost in the Scotish highlands that thought it was a good idea to bring as little as possible and forget the map, can just whip out the N95, use the GPS and Sat Nav to get home with relative ease. (more…)

Symbian UIQ3 Modding (Part 2)

Sunday, January 4th, 2009

As promised from a while back, this is part 2 of the tutorials: Installing ported apps from the G900.  The G900 is the latest offering (and probably the last) of a smartphone running UIQ3 from Sony Ericsson.  It has the same specs as my P1i except for a 5MP camera and it also has a much improved user interface which sadly aren’t available on the P1.  This is where the mods come in.  At the moment there are only two mods available.  One utilises the camera LEDs and the other is a nifty little app…

My Pigeon Plays Tap Tap On iPhone Better Than You

Thursday, December 11th, 2008

Ever wondered if a pigeon can play Tap Tap? Neither have I! But hey, this video answers that question. This is a pet pigeon, however why you would want a pigeon as a pet, is something I cannot fathom. Even if I DID have one, the last thing on my pet pigeon to-do list would be let it play on my shiny new iPhone. Oh well. Continue reading for link.
