waiting
I'm sitting in a local restaurant, Willow, waiting for my friends to arrive.
I had an interesting thought today while walking to my house from the metro. Well, maybe not interesting, but a thought.
The weather is perfectly warm with a cool breeze. I love walking in weather like this. I had been reading a book on the train, and I continued holding it as I made my way home. One of my old roommates gave me this silly bookmark, with a picture of "High School Musical" on the front and a yellow tassle hanging off the top. It bounced playfully as I walked home.
It reminded me of being a kid, joyful and innocent, with a desire to read everything and anything to learn a little more about the world around me.
Updates.....
Hello everyone! I am glad to let u all know what there has been a lot of tech related stuff happening in my life recently and I just got time to get back to blogging. I just recently graduated from my masters degree at ASU and I am starting my PhD this fall thats in a couple of weeks. Though PhD is going to be tough I will be relatively less stressed atleast for the first couple of months.
IPhone Software Update
Last week we had a post about the problems some users are experiencing with their shiny iPhone 3Gs. Apple has released a software update, which I’m now installing. (Just sync up your iPhone with iTunes and choose “Check for updates.”) No details from Apple yet on what this is supposed to fix or add, but it’s a 248.7 megabyte file.
UPDATE at 8/20/08 12:13:40 pm:
iPhone; NO kPhone =)
Well I've had my black iphone 3g 16gb for a few weeks now, and here is my report.
The first couple weeks it worked FLAWLESSLY. No dropped 3g network, no dropped calls, no crashes or any of the other problems other users were experiencing. Then the firmware update came and all hell broke loose!
Since I updated my phone Safari has been crashing non-stop. I'm lucky if I get one full minute of browsing in before I'm presented with a lovely black screen for 10 seconds and then I'm back to the home screen. This is particularly annoying considering the real web browsing and large screen was the number one reason I upgraded from my samsung blackjack to the iPhone.

Palm attempts to compete with Blackberry and iPhone
Palm announced the next line of its Treo smart phones. The phone dubbed Treo Pro is squarely targeted to go after the market share lost from RIM's Blackberry. The phone is powered by Microsoft's mobile platform and retails for $549 however, Palms carrier partners will probably subsidize part of this cost.
The Treo Pro does have some unique features not found on some of the other smart phones. It has a screen saver and short cuts to make it even easier to turn the ringer and wifi on/off, and to access the internet.
Ich zeig dir meins - du zeigst mir deins!
So oder so ähnlich hat es sich wohl David Jilli gedacht als er Padadaz ( ja das Teil heißt wirklich so! ) entwickelt hat. Das Prinzip ist so simpel wie auch genial ( finde ich zumindest ).
Mach ein Bild, versende es an Padadaz - für dein Bild bekommst du von einem anderen Padadaz Mitglied ein Bild zugeschickt. Das ganze funktioniert auf Zufallsbasis, man weiß also nie was man zurück bekommt ;-)
iPhone 3G and O2 UK
In the UK, you probably already know that the iPhone is exclusive to O2. As an Apple lover I switched to O2 for in my opinion is still the best mobile phone I have ever used. I love it to bits and will be sad to see it go back to the shop. The reason being is that I was miss sold my contract. When I rang customer services to see what the hell was going on they simply said they could do nothing and it was my fault because I had bought an iPhone. I had to options, to upgrade and pay more or leave. Now thats what I call great customer services.

Jeder bekommt einen Audi A4 kostenlos
Im Appstore gibt's einen kostenlosen "Fahrsimulator" von Audi. Die Audi A4 Driving Challenge.
Ziel des Spiels ist möglichst Fehlerfrei in einem Parkour zu fahren. Den A4 steuert man mit den Bewegungssensoren des iPhones, Gas und Bremse per Touch.
Das ganze gibt's kostenlos und das ist auch gut so den die Steuerung ist verdammt schwer! Sollte sich ein Audi so steuern würde keiner einen haben wollen ;-)
