Ahhhhhhhhhh!

I have been off the radar WAY too long! Oh college, and its silly end of the semester crunch.

I am excited, though, because there's been some awesome news that Engadget Mobile has been so kind to show me.

There's been a ton of iPhone OS 3.0 sleuthing going on, and it seems people have unearthed the workings of what could be a new iPhone (or two). This version apparently has a 3.2 MP camera with video recording capability, plus a digital compass (someone's aping the N97, methinks), plus all the other OS 3.0 features. Exciting? Marginally so. I'm more excited that someone found one with a possible 5 MP camera. That's a bit more like it, even though it's still not nearly in the league as the Sony Idou and the Samsung Omnia HD (both pack 8 MP cameras)

Also, the Omnia HD passed FCC clearance this morning! Or at least, that's when Engadget found out about it! That means we're all one step closer to holding sweet, sweet OLED goodness.

First vBlog!

Hope you guys enjoy!

Apple under suit again

From Engadget Mobile:

"Is there a better way to ring in the first day of spring than with another lawsuit aimed at Apple and AT&T? Probably, but apparently not for Damone Dickerson, who has filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey that again takes aim at the pair over allegedly misleading claims about 3G speeds. According to Dickerson, he has only be able to connect to the 3G network a "fraction of the time," and when he was able to connect it did not provide "full and continual service." As a result, he's leveled a whole host of charges against the two companies, which he hopes will result in them changing their advertising and, of course, allow him to "recover compensatory, statutory and punitive damages." No word from Apple or AT&T, naturally, but Apple has recently asked that a similar case in New York be dismissed."

Sound familiar?

About that iPhone Battery Life...

My friend was complaining recently that she can't hold down a half day of charge on her iPhone 3G, whereas other friends have lauded the phone for its excellent battery life. Now, both of these people tend to use their iPhones the same amount, so I don't really have a clue as to why there would be so much variance in battery life. I haven't managed to find anything conclusive online.

Defective unit, maybe? Who knows?
