WebIS - PI for iPhone v1.11.08

Over the years I have tried many PIM applications for my WinMo devices from SPB Diary, SBSH Pocket Breeze and many more, the one I kep going back and trying and seeing what was new was WebIS's Pocket Informant.

Since the begining of this year I have been using an iPhone 3G 16GB as my main device, it has been great, however we all know that the built in diary is only just adequate, I had seen Pocket Informant for the iPhone and held off for a bit just see how it developed.

I since installed PI on my iPhone and must say now that it is my main dairy & todo list. I was very impressed with how easy it was to use and enter my data.

On the Twitter board WebIS have advised they are close to nailing the Outlook sync most likely via Bonjour, this will make PI a killer app and a must for those people that need to stay in control of their day to day needs.

Great Winterboard theme...

So far I have seen some great UI themes for the iPhone from the HTC Hero UI and now one from 6Mik over at DeviantART who designed the "Whitoken" theme and also Darren Coates who did some great Mods of 6Mik's theme.

Below is some screen shots of my iPhone 3G, with Wolfmans Mod theme, based on Darren Coates Mod.

i-wrapz skin for iPhone 3G

A couple of weekends ago I was at the Royal Perth Show and found a vender there selling i-wrapz, now since I bought my iPhone 3G back in Feb 09 I have been on the hunt for the ultimate case.

I have a number of cases from a full leather case & belt clip to standard hard & silicone cases with also a hip holster thrown in. Now my phone is fully protected as I use the hip holster and Flaming Skull themes i-wrapz.

The  surprising thing about the Wrapz is thatthey stick to certin surfaces for example Glass, Plastic, Benchs, Tiles even one of my books. See below some pics, when they guy showed me at the Royal Perth Show I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it and now you can as well.

Budsgoblue Shhh…. a Secret!

Imagine Bluetooth headphones an inch in size, with full music, call and volume control.

Today I received an email from an insider in the headphone industry, that a major company, possibly, Sony, Motorola, Jaybird or Altec Lancing will be releasing some brand new Bluetooth headphones.

Why has Apple crippled the iPhone's bluetooth?

I have been reading alot about this of late on the web, it now has been asked alot at work when I advise custoemrs... "By the way you can't send files (music, photo's etc) via bluetooth on your iPhone". The responce is pretty normal "What? My old Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson blah. blah ... could do that and that was over 5 years ago... oh well" and they still by it, just goes to show the power of the iPhone.

With the release of OS 3.0 most thought the Bluetooth issue would be resolved and we iPhone addicts would have one less joke the WinMo guys would throw at us.

But no It seems to me that Apple wants iTunes to be the portal to the iPhone and may be worried about music or other stuff (security threats) being transfered to the iPhone that they don't control or get a kick back from. I mean come on all of my old WinMo devices could transfer files some did very well.

If only Apple would allow sharing via bluetooth, it can be done for those who have jailbroken their iPhones you can via Cydia download (small fee now) iBluetooth it has a bluetooth stack included from most of the reviews it does what it states transfer files to and from the iPhone.

If they are so worried about iTunes media being transfered stop DRM files being transfered there must be some bright spark that could right a script etc for that.

Well I just hope that with the possible release of 3.1 OS (currently in Beta with developers) that they - Apple think long and hard about what their customer want - EVERYTHING!

Well that's my rant for today
