Alright, I realize that based on my rant yesterday, and now this, I look like an Apple hater and I can assure you that I am really not. I am, however, upset about the previously mentioned connector issue that caused my daughter to decide she no longer wanted the new iPhone, and I also have a sense of humor, which
Lately, I've become a bit nostalgic for some aspects of what computers were like in the early days of the internet. Remember when PCs used to come with one, simple, solitaire game installed? I spent countless hours playing with the virtual cards on my computer even though I had a perfectly good deck of real cards that I could have
When I heard the verdict on the Apple v. Samsung case, I was angry. Angry with Samsung for copying, angry with Apple for suing, angry with jurors for naivety, angry with the legal system for letting itself be a pawn. Over the weekend, I've mellowed a little but I'm still concerned about the impact it will have on consumers. Apple is
Have you ever wondered if your annoyingly loud neighbors are making enough noise to damage your hearing? To find out, you are going to need a decibel meter. I recommend an app that is appropriately named Too Loud?. It is a handy, easy to use, decibel meter. The “Too Loud?” app is compatible with iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. It
Some of you may know the game Pitfall thanks to it being kept alive through computer emulators, and a few of you may even remember playing it on your Atari game console. Now Activision has revived the classic with a remake for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices. The game has been redesigned for modern mobile devices, so don't expect any nostalgic
A2DP Bluetooth rarely comes as standard in cars except on prestige marques, but most new vehicles at least come with a 3.5 mm audio socket on the audio system for plugging-in mp3 players. If you want a quick and cheap way to upgrade the car's audio to Bluetooth, take a look at he BTR006 Bluetooth Stereo Receiver. The BTR006 is
RIM, or Research in Motion, is in trouble. That isn't news anymore because it's become fodder for every tech blog around. The mobile company that used to own the space has fallen by the wayside and the only thing left to decide is where the users will go and what last-ditch effort the company will make to save themselves. As
U.S. Federal Judge Richard Posner of U. S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois ruled on Friday, June 22, 2012, that Apple cannot seek an injunction against Motorola Mobility in Apple's lawsuit about smartphone patents. Judge Posner has thrown out the case “with prejudice”, which means that neither Apple nor Motorola can refile this case. There is the
I was talking to a friend early this morning about what I'd like to see in an RSS reader app. As a truck driver, I've got endless listening hours. I want an RSS reader app that can use text-to-speech and read articles to me in a non-stop fashion. To my surprise, my friend told me that such an app already
Sometimes apps that do simple things, or seemingly simple things to the end-user end up being the ones that are the most useful. This week I discovered two such apps, one for the Mac Found and one for the iPhone the Streaming Music Timer by Fusion Effects. Both do something that I have been looking for a while I use
Adoption of electric vehicles in the United States has been a bumpy road, at best. If it wasn’t cost, it was availability. And if it wasn’t availability, it was functionality. For whatever reason, electric cars can’t seem to get traction. With a new app announced today, Ford is looking to set the tone for what owning an electric car should
Amazon Cloud Player has been available for Android devices since it launched, but today Amazon announced that the music app is now available for iPad and iPhone.
