XRoad’s Google Maps, Downloaded To Your iPhone
The folks at XROAD have launched a new iPhone application that seems to offer navigation (sorta). The important part of the application to mention is that it essentially downloads the Google map data (a 932MB package) to the iPhone. Why is this important? Because, now your iPhone can be used for directions and such without […]
Too Drunk To Drive? Ask Your iPhone
The holidays are upon us… and if your family is anything like mine… you need to drink heavily to make it through in one piece. All jokes aside… considering I carry my iPhone everywhere… would be a handy tool to guesstimate my BAC (blood alcohol content) when consuming the booze. Buzz Buddy for the iPhone […]
BlackBerry Storm Review
Any chance the Blackberry Storm is going to put a dent in the iPhone’s armor? I don’t think so. We don’t have ours yet… but here is what the folks at Wired had to say.

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic – Another iPhone Killer (Attempt)
I am not an Apple fan boy, but I do believe that anyone releasing a product that claims to challenge the 900lb gorilla that is the iPhone needs to bring a pair of brass balls and a cup to the fight. Looks like Nokia is doing just that. Launching in India, the latest “iPhone killer”, […]
Griffin AirCurve Dock Amplifies iPhone Without Power
We have seen passive iPod amplifiers/speakers in the past. And I get the allure of amplifying the tiny iPhone speaker while not wanting to use electricity. But until I get my sample of the AirCurve from Griffin (Griffin, this is your cue to get a sample in the mail for me ASAP :0) I will […]

Palringo is the first official multi-client IM (instant messenger) application for the iPhone. The program supports Google Talk/Jabber, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo, ICQ, iChat, and Gadu-Gadu.

3-In-1 Gadget For iPhone And iPod
The Macally PowerLink is one of the coolest gadgets I have seen for the iPhone or iPod in quite a while. Typically the gadgets tend to be boring, not-so-useful, or “me too” technology. The PowerLink however has some pretty cool/useful bits packed into it’s little black box. Sync cable – small and easy to tote […]
iPhone 2.0 Firmware Available From iTunes 7.7
You can now get the latest iPhone 2.0 firmware wit the new features… the only catch is that you have to update your version of iTunes to 7.7 first. Update – Avoid like the plague for now… this will brick your phone and make it non-usable. Why? Because the Apple servers are down and are […]
Adobe’s Flash Coming To iPhone? Don’t Hold Your Breath.
I love my iPhone… but I would love it just a bit more if it had the ability to render Adobe’s Flash enabled websites. You can’t even browse/use the YouTube site on an iPhone unless you use the scaled down version of the YouTube iPhone widget. Many sites use flash… and when you browse these […]
