iSMS, es una aplicación desde la cual puedes enviar mensajes, puedes añadir varios contactos (pero eso ya lo puedes hacer desde la app original del iPhone), viene con varias plantillas, y un contador de caracteres (razón por la cual ocupo esta app)

Se encuentra en el Installer agregrando esta source:

Woohoo! It looks like the folks who make Unity3D, my favorite game development platform, are going to expand their software to allow publishing for the IPhone. Amazing. I don't know all of the details yet but I love the idea of writing a game once and being able to publish for both mac and windows, as well as for the web (via their plugin) and now the IPhone. 

Efectivamente, como habreis adivinado me he hecho con una (bueno, en realidad 3) tarjetas de Simyo; todo gracias a eBay, con mis últimas pujas me comentaron que me enviarían tres códigos promocionales para adquirir 3 tarjetas de esta compañía por sólo 1€, tres tarjertas con 10€ en llamadas y hasta 5€ al mes durante 2008 en navegación, vamos una tarjetita que le viene como anillo al dedo a mi iPhone.

A Apple deve lançar uma versão de alta velocidade de seu iPhone no segundo trimestre e planeja produzir até oito milhões de unidades no terceiro trimestre, de acordo com o Bank of America.As ações da Apple subiram em US$ 3,95, ou 2,8%, para US$ 144,20, depois que um relatório do analista Scott Craig, do Bank of America, previu lançamento de um iPhone de terceira geração (3G). As ações da AT&T, a operadora exclusiva do iPhone nos Estados Unidos, subiram em um por cento, para US$ 38,03, na sexta-feira."Nossas mais recentes verificações junto aos canais apontam para elevação significativa na produção do iPhone 3G a começar em junho, depois de uma elevação inicial mais modesta em maio", afirmou Craig em nota a clientes.

The San Francisco based video game dev tool provider announced today that they will be releasing a Unity engine for the iPhone! This means high grade 3D quality awesomeness will soon be developed for iPhone exclusively. The company states:

"With iPhone support, Unity is poised to become the single source for game developers who want to create best-of-breed, 3D-quality games that can be easily and quickly ported to all platforms, including consoles, devices, PC/Mac, and now, the iPhone," said David Helgason, CEO of Unity Technologies. "Specifically, Unity's support of iPhone addresses the developer's need to create more and better mobile/portable games that support the consumers 'on-the-go' lifestyle."

I predict a portable iPhone only game controller soon ...

keep your eyes open.

Acaba de salir la nueva versión de Ziphone 3.0 y como sé que os gusta mucho eso de andar liberando vuestros iPhone e iPod touch, os dejo el enlace para ver las novedades que incluye.Os recomiendo que esperéis unos días para leer los comentarios de los valientes que se arriesguen a liberar sus teléfonos o iPods con la nueva versión. 

Debating whether or not to purchase additional Apple shares (AAPL). Right now at ~$140, it's a pretty good bargain.

The reason they dropped so significantly in price is because of the scare includes the discrepancy between the iPhone subscriptions (1.2 million) and the number of iPhone sales (3 million).  However, I have strong confidence in their growth. They constantly launch new platforms that do well. It began with the iPod, then the Nano, Touch, iPhone, etc. They are unique and they brand themselves well.

I also read an article on VentureBeat in regards to how they are going internationally. If they successfully penetrate the Chinese Markets along with others, their AAPL stock looks rather promising.

Sairam alguns rumores quentinhos. Seguinte, a Apple pode estar pensando em um modelo mais básico e outro 3G.

O iPhone 3G com novas funções deve sair entre 3 e 6 meses. A Apple também deve lançar mais modelos criando uma família de iPhones, assim como o iPod tem a sua. Isso até o inicio de 2009.

It’s been a while.

I’d love to say I’ve been very busy. That life has been hectic and as such I have failed to do what I love doing, but that would be a lie. I’ve been lazy mostly. I’ve also done my fair share of procrastinating. However, life being what it is, you can only drag your feet for so long. Sooner or later you’re gonna have to look in the mirror and if you’re lucky you’ll not be too crazy about the guy staring back at you.

You will realize, as I have that some sort of change is needed. It will be pretty messed up though, because as many before me will attest, change doesn’t come with a snap of a finger, a click of a heel or a twitch of the nose. It would be pretty neat if that’s how stuff worked, but life has other plans for us…and it can be a bitch.
