iPhone 2.0 Software

With the new iPhone 2.0 software coming in less than a week away on July the 11th, I'm real excited about all the new features. Sure I love the new enterprise features in 2.0, but that's not the real reason I'm so excited. It's all because of the App Store. This is Apple's way of letting 3rd party developers get into the iPhone's main OS and really take advantage of the ground features. This compared to web apps just blows the web apps out of the water. Period. I can't wait for July 11th.

A Backstory of How I Got My iPhone

I always have dreamed for an iPhone ever since it first came out. I did once have one on the very first day but I was unable to complete my obligation with my parents to dish out the money. I could either sell it or take it back to AT&T. I sold it on eBay only to have a fraudulent buyer to try and steal it from me without me even knowing it. So when that failed I had to do the other option which was to take it back to AT&T. So, when Steve announced the iPod touch, I purchased it as a substitute to chew on until I got an iPhone. As soon as the 16 GB iPhone came out however, I made the swoop to the iPhone. I sold the iPod touch on eBay and added the selling earnings and the money I had saved and bought the iPhone. It's quite a long story for such a tiny device and I summarized it as much as I could.

I'm A Mac

Having tried Linux, Windows, and OS X, I can tell you that Mac OS X is the best way to go. Hands down. I love my shimmering iMac with the comfortable aluminum keyboard and wireless mouse. Nuts to, linux and windows. Linux especially because their users think they are so better than Mac users. It's not simply not true.

iPhone SDK Event Announced

It seems developers have been given a secret invitation from Apple concerning the SDK event to be held on the 6th of March. Though not much is known, I suspect the software update from yesterday was the first step to Apple's SDK roadmap. Hope Apple won't restrict the developer's imagination.

iPhone Wish List

With SDK arriving soon within 3 days, I will make a wish list of all the features I hope the developers or apple will add to the iPhone:

1)Flash support for Safari (everyone agrees)

2)The camera application now takes videos with audio (Oh boy how useful that would be!)

3)MMS (every other phone has it.. why not the iPhone? Why not the top class phone? Speak up, Apple!

4)Developers, make top notch games for the iPhone and try to take advantage of it's multi-touch capabilities!

Sold My 8 GB touch... Got An iPhone!

Oh god what a smooth transition it was. I sold my old 8 GB iPod touch on ebay for $220.00. Then I worked off a bit of extra money and got a 16 GB iPhone! It's worlds better than the touch... everything I wanted is on this thing and the billing is just $20 more to existing AT&T customers.

iPod Touch 1.1.3 Jailbreak

Sorry, guys. I haven't updated since.. well.. forever really. I've been busy over at a forum called,"iPod Touch Fans". I've really been into the jailbreaking of the touch over in that area. They say eventually the guys at Touch Dev well release it, but they cannot decide if they should release it now or wait until February for the release of the SDK. Anyway, thanks and I will keep you updated for now on. :)
