iPhone Enterprise – now with more Microsoft
By James Allan Brady and Vincent Nguyen on Thursday, Mar 6th 2008 No CommentsPHONE Mag Live-Blogging Apple’s iPhone SDK announcement today!
By Chris Davies on Thursday, Mar 6th 2008 3 Comments
It’s been a rumor-packed week since Apple announced they’d be holding a special event today, March 6th, to officially announce the iPhone SDK Roadmap as well as “some exciting new enterprise features”, and we wanted to remind you that over at our cellularly-obsessed sister site PHONE Magazine we’ll be live-blogging the whole event. The show kicks off at 10am PST – that’s 1pm EST or 6pm GMT – and the place you’ll want to be is http://live.phonemag.com/
Will Steve announce an SDK beta as has been rumored, and leave the full release for later in the year? Just how draconian are Apple going to be about third-party software, and is iTunes really going to be the only place users can get new apps for their iPhone? And please, can we have Microsoft Exchange support yet? We’re hoping to find out the answers to all these questions – and maybe the odd surprise, because we’re greedy like that – when Jobs takes to the stage, so join us later today!
Boynq Alibi Review – Cute and Fun Webcam-Speaker Combo
By Chris Davies and Satsuki Then on Saturday, Mar 1st 2008 1 CommentWhen they can fit a webcam into a milimeter-depth notch in a laptop’s screen bezel, a manufacturer would have to be offering something pretty impressive to sell one standing eight inches tall on your desktop. But Boynq are positioning their Alibi unit as something more interesting than a simple way to video chat with your parents; it may be a 1.3-megapixel webcam with integrated speakers and microphone, but what you’re really paying for is the design. Like some monstrous limb cinched in with the brushed-finish silver volume band, the Alibi’s selling point is its pop-up, twist & rotate camera. SlashGear braved vague and unsettling memories of War of the Worlds and put the Alibi through its very purple paces.
iPhone SDK apps to require Apple approval and iTunes distribution – I’m So Shocked!
By James Allan Brady on Friday, Feb 29th 2008 No CommentsIn a move that anyone even remotely familiar with Apple could have seen coming from miles away, even with the SDK Apple wants complete control of what Apps make it onto the iPhone and iPod Touch and complete control of distribution. I don’t think this tidbit has been confirmed, but how likely is it Apple is going to open up any portion of their business model?
MSI GX600-08 notebook – hit the turbo!
By James Allan Brady on Thursday, Feb 28th 2008 No CommentsThis notebook seems rather plain and basic, but deep inside it has a hidden feature. There is a turbo button, it doesn’t magically speed up the computer like the turbo buttons of yore, but it does help with your battery life.
Apple Event March 6th – they are finally rolling out the SDK
By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Feb 27th 2008 No CommentsEven better yet, for you the reader, we’ll be livecasting from the event like we do all of Apple’s events. The invite shows the SDK, Enterprise features, and Software update on the roadmap. As it gets closer to the event’s date, we will post the livecast URL.

Axiotron ModBook Review Part 1
By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Feb 20th 2008 5 CommentsSo, I’ve had this thing for a few hours short of a full day, and I’ve got some stuff to report, but I don’t want to call this the end of the review, I am going to give it a few more days and then give the final part of the review. So far, I am not sold on it, but, my sister, who is taking classes in college for photography and the various digital arts got her hands on it and wouldn’t let go until I took it away to charge it.
DSLR Movie Mode patent allows video capture on your high end camera
By James Allan Brady on Monday, Feb 18th 2008 No CommentsMr. Terada is apparently a genius, and of all the things he likely could have done with his mind, he chose to bring us all video capture capabilities on our DSLR cameras. In case you don’t know, DSLR’s are the high end digital cameras that everyone and their brother is carrying around these days, other than the fact that they have changeable lenses, most people that have them after this past Christmas season probably have no clue why they have them.
Spring Ace by Samsung reviewed
By James Allan Brady on Monday, Feb 18th 2008 No CommentsLook at the glory that is the Sprint Ace, really it’s just a BlackJack that looks a little different and uses CDMA and EVDO instead of whatever AT&T uses. Sure, I know, it looks a little different too, and that kind of makes since, they have managed to fit all the same features in a slightly smaller package with a slightly larger screen (2.3 inches compared to the BlackJack’s 2.25).
