Would you take your tech…to the grave?

Posted by Jessica in December 18th 2008  

I was reading an article today about a rising trend–people getting buried with their favorite technology.  Apparently people love their geeky gear SO much they don’t want to part with it once they shuffle off this mortal coil.  From the article:
“It seems that everyone under 40 who dies takes their cell phone with them,” says [...]

iPhone App Review: Trism

Posted by Jessica in December 17th 2008  

The first game I bought for my iPhone was Demiforce’s tour de force puzzle game, Trism.  It looked like an amazing combo of Hexic (a favorite on the XBox) and Tetris, and I’m a puzzle game addict.  After only a few games, I was hooked.  Trism is absolutely awesome.  I just got my highest score [...]

Say it ain’t so! 2009 is Apple’s last year at Macworld

Posted by Jessica in December 16th 2008  

According to a press release on the Apple PR site, the keynote address on January 6, 2009 will be Steve’s swan song at the Macworld Expo.  According to the release, Apple is scaling back trade shows because of the increasing popularity of reaching customer via other mediums, such as the retail Apple Stores and Apple.com.
What [...]

The iPhone 3G is unlocked!

Posted by Jessica in December 16th 2008  

We all knew it was just a matter of time…the hackmasters behind the iPhone Dev Team have been hard at work since the day the iPhone 3G was released to unshackle it from the carrier constraints of AT&T. Now it looks like a successful hack is finally complete, with a promise of a free [...]

All I want for Christmas (or my birthday) is Pocket Informant…

Posted by Jessica in December 15th 2008  

One of the apps I’ve been waiting for (not so patiently) is Pocket Informant for iPhone.  I’m a long-time PI fan from my days of using it on Windows Mobile, and I absolutely cannot wait to have it on my iPhone.  The problem is, I’m incredibly impatient.
I’m not a huge fan of the built-in iPhone [...]

Copy and paste on the iPhone with pastebud

Posted by Jessica in December 12th 2008  

A long-standing complaint from the iPhone community at large has been the lack of copy and paste functionality.  This isn’t something I run into needing too often, but I agree that it’s a super basic feature that should have been there from the start.
There have been a few attempts at a proof of concept so [...]

iPhone App Review: Stanza

Posted by Jessica in December 11th 2008  

Ever since I got my first PDA, I have been a big fan of eBooks.  I apparently have some kind of deep-seated fear about being stuck somewhere and bored to tears, and having a small library in my pocket goes a long way towards making me feel prepared for just about anything.
So, when I was [...]

iPhone App Review: Tweetie

Posted by Jessica in December 11th 2008  

I am an avid Twitter user, so one of the first apps I downloaded onto my iPhone was Twitteriffic.  It’s a great program, but 9.99 for the Pro version seemed a little high.  It also didn’t allow me to search, follow people (or unfollow them!) from the application, track trends, or load more than a [...]
