Do you remember a few months ago when there was a rumor surrounding Flash being released with iPhone firmware 1.1.3? That didn’t happen.
Then, do you remember when, a few weeks later Steve Jobs came out and said that Flash was not the right product for the iPhone? That was final(ish).
Then, did you hear [...]

The iPhone SDK is official.  There are games announced (more on this later), JAVA support promised, and Flash is unknown.  With the the only limitation at this point being the imagination of the developers, anything is possible.
I have a list of things I want to see.  What about you?  Let me know on the poll [...]

When I think of the note applications on the iPhone (without 3rd party adjustments), I end up bothered by the silly font and the lack of syncing with my home Mac.  If either of these issues bother you as well, then there is a great Web App that you should try out.
I am talking about [...]

True story - I went out to eat with a bunch of writing teacher friends of mine.  When it came time to pay the bill, were were at a loss.  Imagine a bunch of word nerds trying to divvy up the check, figure out tax, and calculate a tip.  It was honestly a pretty sad [...]

The iPhone Software Development Kit (SDK) was promised by the end of February. I just checked, and well, here we are; it is the end of February.  Unless Apple is going to do a sneaky, underwhelming release of the SDK, it doesn’t look like it is coming.

Are you a list person? Do you make lists before you do anything? Does the phrase “Getting Things Done” get you all twitterpated?
I am definately a list man. That has been one of the bothers of the iPhone since the day 1 - there is no task or list manager that is native [...]

I had a Samsung Blackjack for a while.  To be honest, the entire experience was completely underwhelming.  Despite my lackluster experience with it, there are two things that I miss about that phone.  I miss being able to tether my laptop and share an internet connection, and I miss listening to streaming internet radio.
Now with [...]

If I had a nickel for every song in my iTunes library, I would have approximately $102.15, and I would be ripped off because that many songs would actually cost me closer to $2022.57, but I digress.
Needless to say, all of those songs do not fit on my iPhone (they wouldn’t even fit on the [...]

Flash on the iPhone is a great idea. In fact, many people have been grumbling about the omission of Flash Support since the iPhone was released.
Well, the scooping bloggers over at Gear Live are reporting that their sources say that Flash support is coming “very, very soon.”   How trust worthy are their sources?  Well, [...]
