iPhone new and old Side by Side from Encript on Vimeo.

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.

Hey face it not everyone has the time to download nice album art for every single album you own. Its too time consuming to do such a thing (*cough*not that I have done such a thing). Well to save you some time how about you check out this nice little app called album art aggregator. What it does is collect data based from your ID3 tags to grab the correct album art. Once it downloads the art it places a jpg file in the same folder as the album. The name of the file could be changed so you can name it to something like folder.jpg. Which is what I prefer because it plays nice with Windows and XBMC so you can see all that pretty art. You can customize the program to fit how you organize your music. Some like to have all the albums in one folder others like to have artist and then album, so its up to you. So give it a shot it works very fast even for a large music collection. Windows only sorry link here oh and windows users might need the latest framework.

Some clever folks figured out a way to get 2.0 on your iphone first gen using windows. In fact it was too simple just follow these simple steps and your on your way to app store goodness. iPhone hacks has put up a neat guide which is very easy to follow. Here is a link to the steps iphone hacks

***Update***Here is an official way to PWN your iphone 2g the winpwn way is now officially out for you to play with. You can check it out at www.winpwn.com

Nothing like taking a nice stroll in Manhattan and seeing your local shady electronic store clearly selling unlocked iphones illegally. I thought this was so funny that I had to make a post about it. That’s a huge advertisement also its not even like they are on the side trying to hustle some unlocked iphones. They are straight up like come on in and get your phone.

Ok here is more video evidence of the tool everyone who has a jailbroken iphone is looking for. Too bad the only thing being released here are videos. I mean like come on this is like the biggest tease ever made on the internet if its true. They want people like me to squirm in anticipation of the release. Not only did we have to squirm for the firmware to come out but now we have to squirm for the pwnage tool to come out also. anyway here is it enjoy the video. I know they are under alot of pressure but when it comes out it will come out. Then we can all enjoy it and play with the new firmware. (more…)

The iphone pwnage tool has been out for sometime now while many users report that it does just that, pwnz an iphone. Now that the new 2.0 apple software has been officially released the iphone dev team report that they have indeed unlocked and jailbroken this new firmware. This has yet to be confirmed, however when they say they have done something its normally true. The Dev team has been unlocking and installing older builds of the 2.0 firmware for sometime now.

Agile Messenger Video from Encript on Vimeo.

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!

Save money on SMS: Agile Messenger sends all messages through your data-plan, there is no per message charge!
