What do you think of this Apple iPhone Camera 6X Zoom Telescope?
2008-06-03
Now that manufacturers are creating add-on lenses for cellphone cameras similar to the one we saw at CES. They need to step up their funny to attract your attention. This iPhone telescopic lens does just that, adding a nifty protective iPhone case to go along with the lens. The good news is that it does seem to zoom in a crapload (see photo after jump) and long distances with the power of a digital camera and video it is like taking a portable video camera/still camera in your iPhone. but unless that lens unscrews from the body, there's no way you can call the iPhone "pocketable". It says it's an absolute must for people who want to snoop without being noticed. But if the iPhone's camera was better I'd consider something like this. For the lame 2MP camera witch crap low-light performance, I doubt if it's worth it. That and it's dorky.But it's really a Interesting and cool gadget. Makes me paradoxical, Have anyone tried this? What do you think of it?

Show you stylish and unique iPhone cases here
2008-06-03
Hundreds of iPhone cases have been released in a variety of styles and colors since the iPhone was released. Those who invest in this new exciting technology will no doubt look for a good way to protect their investment.
I just got my two iPhone cases from www.easyipodshop.com I really love what they’ve done with color for the flip style case (bought mine in slate blue) and with the classic black for my holster. The interiors are superb, all velvet and very soft to the touch, and the finishings are one of the best I’ve seen. Comparable to Sena and Vaja but about half the price (40 bucks plus shipping)
I couldn’t stop congratulating myself for choosing this iPhone leather case over many others that I considered when looking for a case for my new iPhone. The material truly is first class leather and the craftsmanship is top-notch. The item is relatively inexpensive and shipping from CoverCase was amazing. I really cannot remember the last time I had such a marvelous online shopping experience!
I see posts like this and I have to say .. dont get it … why spend $2.99 plus dollars then more to protect a screen when you can get a case like the Otterbox Defender iPhone case for $49 and then you have something that actually protects your iPhone. I had the others they offer bump protection .. the defender case that I bought from easyipodshop.com is great .. I now dont worry and the case comes with a belt clip and built in screen and camera protector…. I know you can find prettier cases but you have to ask fashion or a broken iPhone …
After reading all the posts I went to easyiPodshop.com got my case there …. .. the otterbox defender case I did not need to purchase a iPhone screen protector or anything else .. just the case and my iphone is not easier to hold and it a case that looks like it will protect my phone … Thank you for the tip about that site and I would definately recomend them …. good prices … got it fast and they did not rip you off with shipping .. heck I only paid $5.0 for shipping!
Thanks again …. iPhone users unit!

Know more about your iPod Touch!
2008-06-03
First of all let me state that these are the best of the tips I have learned from other forums (ipodtouchfans.com and apple-touch.com) or from the iPod Touch features guide on apple’s website so I don’t believe they are propriety information. I think they are some valuable tips that either Noobs or experienced users can use. I would be happy to edit my post from time to time with tips that you all suggest.
1. If you double click the home button in any application, or with the screen off will bring up the music controls. This will not work if completely powered off.
2. When inputting a great deal of text in Safari turn it to horizontal view. The keyboard will be bigger and you can get a better grip of the Touch while typing with two thumbs.
3. If you have made a spelling mistake, press and hold the word you spelled wrong and a magnifying glass will appear. Slide your finger back and forth to move the cursor bubble. This also works when manually keying in addresses in safari.
4. When scrolling through a long page in Safari - tap the bar at the top of your screen containing the address bar, time, and battery, Safari will automatically return to the top of the page and the show address bar.
5. Power saving tip:Turn off WiFi in the settings menu to save iPod battery power when not in use.
6. Holding down letters on the keyboard will pop up the accents/symbols associated with those letters. Once it pops up, slide your finger over to the accent/symbol you like.
7. In Safari double tap to zoom in. You can also "pinch" (putting your thumb and index finger on the screen and pinching in and out) to zoom in Safari and in Pictures.
8. You can charge your iPod Touch from any powered USB port. Such as a computer, printer, media center. The device does not have to have iTunes installed to provide power to your iPod Touch. Also per apple’s website the old iPod Chargers that use a fire wire input will charge your iPod but I am not sure if they will sync it.
9. When watching a movies/video, tap to bring up the onscreen controls. When you are done watching a video make sure you press done so your progress will be saved. Also Blue dots on the movie list screen mean at movies has not been played.
10. When typing if you want to add something from the numbers keyboard just hold down the numbers and slide your finger to the number or symbol you want, and release. It will take you back to your letters keyboard. This way you won’t have to tap numbers, tap your number, then tap numbers again to go back. This also applies for using the 'shift' key to apply capital letters.
11. In Safari, if you are presented with a link hold your finger over that link, and a bubble will appear showing the URL that the link is tied to.
12. A good web based instant messanger is www.meebo.com www.meebo.com for AIM, yahoo, MSN, and google talk users.
13. To organize Videos or Movies:
Open iTunes, on movie file right click, "Get Info". Go to video tab, change video kind to "TV Show" and add show name (category to organize by). Files with same show name will be grouped into one folder
14. If you want to makes your ipod touch be much more attractive . An unique ipod touch case will gives your iPod Touch a great look and style. And it is supposed to give your ipod Touch protection from scratches and minor drops. Dust resistant and keep dust from absorbing on the iPod Touch screen protector case for much static charge.
Hope these tips and tricks be helpful for someone!

Tricks to care for your battery!
2008-06-03
For many users, recharging their cell phone batteries consists of the daily routine of plugging in the charger, and then leaving it on for a couple of hours to juice up. However, depending on your battery type, overcharging or undercharging it could result in a shorter life.
You should also understand that due to the chemical processes involved, batteries deteriorate over time. After a certain number of cycles, the battery's maximum charge capacity drops to below 80 percent of its original capacity.
Battery type Number of charging cycles Nickel cadmium (NiCd) 1,500 Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) 300-500 Lithium-ion (Li-ion) 500-1,000 Lithium-polymer (Li-Po) 300-500
Therefore, heavy users who recharge frequently may have to purchase new iPod batteries after a short time compared to light users. However, not every battery will reach this number of cycles before starting to lose charge. For a battery to reach its natural life, proper maintenance is necessary. Batteries may look tough, but they can be inadvertently damaged.
There are several things you can do to maximize the useful life of your battery.
Breaking in
When you first get your battery or phone, you will need to break it in. It may be necessary to fully charge and discharge the battery three to four times before it will be able to make use of its maximum capacity. This is for all battery types.
The first time you charge the battery, the phone may indicate a false full charge after 10 to 15 minutes. This is normal. Unplug and plug the battery charger to "restart" the charging process.
If you wish to keep your batteries aside for a period, store them in a dry and cool place. Heat and nearby metallic objects can spoil the battery. As the batteries will self-discharge after prolonged storage, you will have to break the batteries in again before use. Having said that, don't leave your rechargeable batteries dormant for extended periods. Cycle them for a full charge and discharge every so often to keep it fresh. Batteries that sit idle for extended periods of time without charging begin tend to lose their ability to hold a charge and will self-discharge.
That thing called "memory effect" If you do not fully discharge the battery before recharging it, gradually the capacity of the battery will be reduced. This is called the memory effect, and is due to the accumulation of gas bubbles on the cell plates.
NiCad batteries are especially prone to this problem. Therefore users should try to discharge the battery fully after each use, a process called conditioning. NiMH batteries are less susceptible to the memory effect, but even then you should condition them once every one or two weeks. Li-ion and Li-Po batteries are immune from the memory effect.
For optimal talk and standby time in the long run, it is recommended that you use original batteries with your mobile phones.
Most phones beep or display a "Battery Low" message to remind you that the battery will soon need to be charged or replaced with a charged one. If you are desperate to have the phone last just that extra minute longer, you can consider immediately switching to zero ring volume, zero backlight, non-vibration mode, etc. Switching off the phone for a short while can also prolong the remaining standby time when you next switch the phone on.

Purchase a wonderful and quality iphone screen protector!
2008-06-03
iPhone Screen ProtectorThe Apple iPhone features a beautiful 3.5-inch widescreen display. Apple expects iPhone owners will use their new device to watch movies, browse the web and check email. To access the features of the iPhone, you need to use the revolutionary muli-touch interface. Being a phone and using a touch interface, the iPhone will be susceptible to scratches. Having a scratch on your screen can have a negative impact next time you sit down to watch your favorite movie or television program. To avoid this, the best iPhone accessory investment you can make will be an iPhone screen protector .
Protect your iphone Protecting your screen isn't as simple as purchasing and iPhone case. Each time you pull out your iPhone and touch the screen, there is a potential for scratches. Shortly after the release of the iPhone, many manufacturers will start to offer iPhone Screen Protectors . These are popular among PDA owners looking to protect their investment.
Made for iPhone Be sure to look for iPhone screen protection that is made for your iPhone. They should be perfectly cut, making it easy to apply and offer immediate protection. Some vendors offer templates and require you to cut the plastic covering. This is less than optimal. When the iPhone is turned on, a good screen protector is hardly noticed. Some screen protectors will also offer enhanced usability due to the finish. In general, iPhone screen protectors are a good investment and easily removable should it start to get dirty. In the end, it's a small investment to protect a much larger investment, your iPhone.
iPhone Screen Protector The iPhone uses multi-touch technology which requires you use the touch screen to navigate the phone. This will undoubtedly result in "smudges". While cases can protect your iPhone from drops, an iPhone screen protector will protect the screen from accidental scratches from a fingernail. It is a further safeguard against mishaps and allow you to enjoy Zoolander in all it's glory.
The guys at EasyiPodShop are offering "clear" Apple iPhone Screen Protectors . That's right, they're clear. Not opaque, but "clear" screen protectors. Nevertheless, they're really cheap and useful, protecting against scratches and fingerprints, not covering the whole device, but just the screen. Differently-shaped/sized models are available for all of Apple's portables, including the iPhone. A screen protector for your iPhone costs just $0.99.
The US $1.99 Screen Cover for your iPod Classic protects against scratching, scraping and abrasion, it is removable without leaving residuary mark, it resists to erosion & fingerprints (this feature alone is actually worth buying the product), it is anti-reflective, and, of course, non-corrosive. It comes bundled with a special cleaning paper too. It measures ~5.2 x 3.9 cm. Best of all, EasyiPodShop says there's no bubble trouble (air bubbles) with its products.

Ipod touch ,damn cool electronic gadgets!
2008-05-14
well, i just got my ipod touch for christmas. It is very good. However i belive that apple could have made it even better. For example the ephemeral battery.However the functions that are with are excellent and i would recommend getting it. But i wouldnt spend all your money i would say get the 8GB.
And today I've found my cool ipod touch cases online occasionally!This fashion and handy design makes my ipod touch be much more attractive for . This unique ipod touch silicone case gives my iPod Touch a great look and style.And it is supposed to give your ipod Touch protection from scratches and minor drops.Dust resistant and keep dust from absorbing on the iPod Touch protector case for much static charge.Aha,Perfect col,Does it?IMO, it is a great accessories for iPod owner to have.Here is my ipod touch silicone cases and my ipod touch:
Sincerely I think they're just overpriced a little! So do my friends.But Don't listen to anyone. If u've got the money go for the touch as well as the phone too. Its ur life man!!! If u dont then nobody can help u.
And only one thinger want 2 complaint:The company claims that the Touch can play music for up to 22 hours and video for up to five hours on a single iPod battery charger , even with Wi-Fi turned on. But in my tests, using factory settings, music playback lasted just under 17 hours and video playback lasted just over four hours. Nearly every other iPod I've tested, including the new Nano, handily beat Apple battery claims.
Despite these downsides, the Touch is a great media player, and the iPod remains the best end-to-end portable solution for playing and purchasing ipod music clasic and ipod video .Well, the main reason i'd get the iPod touch over the classic is for the internet, I have a decent phone already (well, its a razr. so shoot me.) that...well...yeah, internet is the only reason, and that out of the 20gigs of music on my computer, I only listen to about 5gigs regularly, so it would work perfectly.
Ah well, hopefully they'll fix the screen tilt video straight on thing...

Focus your eyes on this iphone review.
2008-05-14
I love the Apple iPhone and the iphone charming accessories . It has all the features I needed in my phone. The screen quality which makes it simple and intuitive is the best thing I love about this phone. Anyways the following are my comments.
The GOOD: The design, feel & display are incredibly crazy.. Without doubt revolutionary. User interface is very easy. Have been used to Nokia for years, but adjusted within one day. Touch screen feels great and convenient & enough tools even for an above average mobile user.
one big screen with big, clear icons which means that you don't need to be an expert to use it.But This phone is not covered in buttons and menus whick made me fell creamy & worry of scratchs.Fortunately I've found my yearning iPhone silicone cases which bring a great look and style to my iphone.And it is supposed to give it protection from scratches and minor drops.Dust resistant and keep dust from absorbing on the iphone protector case for much static charge.Aha,Perfect col,Does it?IMO, it is a great accessorie for ipod/iPhone owner to have.And I even yearned another thinger ---a outer joint keyboard for iphone for a long time!But it seems there isnt anyone yet!?
Everything is easy to use.The data package(include ipod data cable ,optical disk,...), is fantastic. This is the feature I use most and nothing else on the market comes close, especially the access to the Cloud broadband network included in the package. I have watched programmes on the BBC iPlayer while waiting for meetings.Google Maps is excellent - especially when walking around a strange city. Very impressed with that.
The NOT SO GOOD.:Screen prone to fingerprints & smudges. Slightly heavy & takes three hours to charge. Iphone Earphones are useless. But then that can be changed,I usually sue my ipod speakers to replace that. Can't change battery & third party applications are useless.,so you have to use the ipod charger every two days(for me).So no special ringtones. Just have to be pleased with the ones that are there. Which are terrible! A 2MP camera in these times. Wake up apple.
The BAD: Ipod Battery Life is pathetic, drops calls & low signal (oops I thought that a mobile must do these basics at least) Needs a charge every day. Even after tricks to save battery Life.People do say that the battery life is not enough but for the 3.5" LCD this much battery life should be more then enough.That's a "pathetic" problem!
Only on rubbish O2 network. Slow Internet. O2 need to improve their edge network! Worse than Samsung! Music quality is also poor. Overpriced.
the PRICE, I mean come on, have you SEEN the price? It's so expensive!
CONCLUSION: Overall a revolution in mobile handsets. Very good for those who are fashion conscious, like to carry music, wifi, Ipod videos & make a few calls, few sms's a day. Also are not too demanding & less finicky (hope this is the right spelling) Bye :-).So,think about what you want from a phone before committing yourself.
What's my opinion? I simply love it.
Below is my iphone and my iphone cases :
