  • Poll: How many of you actually own an iPhone 3G?

    I’m just curious here. Apple announced it had sold over 1M iPhone 3G units over it’s opening weekend (3 days). If this is the case, by now, they should be getting pretty common-place. I personally haven’t seen anyone around Widnes with one, other than myself, but there must be others! – Come on, show yourself! … 8)

    Ok, on first launch it sent the iPhone into a soft reset – but that’s not to say that was Gameloft’s fault, just yet, it could be instability with software 2.0.

Now, it may just be me, but I’ve yet to find that functionality – Game play is currently controlled by touch gestures.

    Has anyone been able to figure this out? – Maybe Gameloft can chip-in at this point? …

Now, I’m pretty sure if your serious about blogging, you currently spend hours on end trying to think of the next big thing, or next thought-provoking, slightly controversial article, right? – At the end of the day, you want one thing – Traffic.

    In 2007, Nick La of N.Design Studio, showed how his vector creations had not only been publicly broadcast on two Bosnia & Herzegovina TV stations, they had been broadcast without his original permission or knowledge. I’m talking about a wealthy TV company here, who didn’t want to spend their own money investing in in-house designers, and so stole works from the internet in an attempt to create a TV spot on the cheap. Get this – he later found his own canvas prints printed out onto canvas’s and being sold in a local shopping mall! …

  • Apple confirms September iPhone update. (2.1, Push?) – [Briefly]

    It’s not a secret that, we as iPhone users have been having major problems. Since Apple changed the frameworks and launched an entirely new version of the iPhone OS, iPhone 2.0, users of the iPhone have been less than satisfied with the performance and stability of their device.

    The recent 2.0.2 update partially addressed 3G connectivity issues, as well as plugged various bugs to make the platform half stable again (the 1.X.X days). While the update brought stability in the form of reducing the amount and frequency of system crashes and resets, the stability of iPhone’s third party application’s, have yet to be addressed …
