As you have may have undoubtedly noticed there are tons of unboxing videos on the net. let me add to the list. Here is a video which i haven’t had much time to upload this is actually quite old. I was suppose talk about how great it is and describe all the specs on it. But I will make another video at a later time showing cooler stuff then just talking about a laptop. The good thing about these videos is that with a laptop like this which you cannot see in a regular store you can kinda get the feel of what it would be like to hold it in your hands. I virtual tour if you will, or maybe it just someone showing off how they got one before you could. This isn’t a full review its more like a mini one. This is just in case you might have been in the market for one and wanted to see how it looks before you pulled the trigger and purchased it.
My friend and I decided to meet up on the day after he purchased his iphone 3g. We thought it would be a nice idea to make a little comparison video, showing the new iphone 3g compared to the old one. What you cant tell in the video is the yellowish hue that everyone noticed in the 3G model. He actually purchased his phone on launch day but Ive been a little busy to upload the videos. Still good to see if you are looking to get your self the new one if your shopping around.
What you will notice off the bat is that the new iphone is significantly lighter in weight. Its suppose to be bigger but you really wont notice that there is any difference unless you pull out a ruler and begin to measure. The screen definitely is yellower then the cooler blue first generation phone. That isn’t a problem at all, besides they say they will correct the color balance in a future update.
Well here I am on my iPhone writing my first post using the wordpress application. I must say this application rocks for the blogger on the go. If you have something you need to blog about and it just can’t wait, now you have a useful tool to get your post out the door faster. Often times I have forgotten to write a post because I might be too busy or a good idea just slipped my mind. Now I can just make a quick post with no hesitation at all. Plus I get to practice my iPhone typing speed, which isn’t that bad by the way. It’s available on the app store right now as a free download you should to get it now if you have an iPhone and a wordpress blog.
If you have been looking for a new instant messenger for the iphone then look no further then Agile Messenger. It is a new native chat program for the iphone. From looking at it you would think it was from the app store. But it is actually from and for the homebrew community. You can use this application if you have a jailbroken iphone. This thing is feature rich compared to some of the other crap we have been given. If you tried other web apps or the dreaded Apollo for the iphone this would be a refreshing change. Actually anything would be better then Apollo but im digressing from the point here. What I am saying is for you to give it a shot install it and i promise you this, you will not uninstall this. Unless something better comes around. But for free I honestly don’t think anything will.
When you launch the messenger you will be asked to enter your log on information for your various chat protocols. Once you set up you can change preferences like auto log on and your messenger status. If you have a stalker change your status to invisible and no one can see if your online until you message them. You can make a custom away message also if you would like to say something more personal. It also has a history logging function for when you like to bring up what people say back in their faces (not that i do that). How to access the entire chat I’m sure you would need to ftp into your iphone to actually grab the whole conversation. I’ll test that and report back on how to do that if you don’t already know how. But you can see from within the program some of the more recent chats you have had. Another feature that totally took me by surprise was that you can utilize the iphones camera to send pictures to the person your talking to. How cool is that. When you minimize the program to the iphone home screen you can see how many unread messages you have like how SMS app does. But stop delaying and go download it now from their home page here, or if you have installer.app already on your iphone do it that way and check the repositories.
Some details from their page. Agile Messenger is the worlds most feature rich and user friendly all-in-one MSN®, AIM®, Yahoo!®, ICQ® & GoogleTalk® instant messaging client for your iPhone!
Send instant text and picture messages to anyone on your MSN®, AIM®, Yahoo!®, ICQ® & GoogleTalk® contact list directly from your iPhone!

Its back again and better then ever if you loved shooting these strange looking aliens then you will still love shooting them now. Back in the day all the aliens would do was stay in a line and when you were about to shoot the last few they would get very quick. Well now they do not stay in a straight line waiting to be shot at they move around. They have become smarter and harder to kill. Some of them make kamikaze moves to take you out faster. I know it sounds like they made them too smart and in tern made a fun game frustrating. Well its the opposite, its difficultly is what makes this game fun. Don’t worry now you get all sorts of new moves and power ups to combat the aliens such as bombs, lasers, spreadgun, and shields. Not like how the shields used to be a barrier to hide behind the shields now forms over you not slowing down the action. Now I am going to have to eat my words I stated that the DS version would not be as good as the PSP. Well it just might be better it all depends on what type of gamer you are. If you would rather have a prettier looking more polished version get the psp one. If you don’t mind it not looking as good and would rather have more gameplay modes and multiplayer modes then get the ds version. There is also a bit of strategy involved you can hold on to a power up by holding the right trigger giving you more time to use it on the next swarm. So what is my final verdict you should pick this up with no questions asked its fun and tell a friend to pick one up also. But the DS has game sharing so they can play you with out it, but they will want their own. (more…)
So I decided I would bring my camera along with me to snitch bar which is located on west 21st street in Manhattan and outdoors in my neighborhood. It would be a good way for me to test some of the environments that work best with this camera. Testing whether or not indoors and lighting would greatly effect the image quality. Don’t forget to click on full so you can see how it looks in its full resolution. (more…)
Have you ever heard the term you get what you pay for. Well in the case of the Aiptek A-HD+ its not what your probably thinking. What you get is a very affordable HD camcorder which is capable of capturing 1080P at 30fps as well as 720P at 60fps. It has a smart user interface
, with simple navigation controls. Which looks similar to sony’s XMB. You can pretty much pick it up and start using it, you might also want to pick up a large memory card for this thing because the internal memory 90MB Nand is pretty much for you to just get a feel of how things work. It supports up to 32GB SDHD so memory shouldn’t be a problem. Has a place for a tripod on the bottom also. Don’t expect to go make a Cloverfield remake with this camera its not professional and has its cons. (more…)
