Right, so the keynote is usually 10am SF time, so that’ll be 1pm Eastern, so give them time to rearrange the shelves…… so I reckon popping down to the Apple Store on 5th Avenue around 2.30pm?
Of course, no point buying one here, but would be nice to see it.
Then maybe swing by Apple Store Regent [...]

Just noticed my bank, First Direct, has declared itself fully functional with Safari.
It’s been touch and go over the last year or two; when they updated their site recently, Safari wasn’t supported at all - I had to use Firefox. Euuugh
Better news, they even have special support for iPhone and iPod Touch, so I [...]

Just got a text message from O2 - From Mid March, my iPhone tariff is increasing from 200 inclusive mins to 600 and 200 inclusive texts to 500.
Yea, I know the tariffs were not particularly competitive before, but kudos for O2 for making the change now, without having to wait out the 18 month contract.
No [...]
Since iPhone software update 1.1.3, you can put web apps on the home screen, and give them an icon.
I’ve provided one for this blog - it’s not great, but it’s better than nothing.
If you don’t have an updated iPhone, this is what it looks like:
Dev reference here.

So a little while ago, a decided it was about time I got a car, terrorised the roads and pollute the planet.
I spent a little time choosing, ruling out, dithering, test driving, justifying and eventually just wanting a particular one, and I have now ordered it.
I won’t say what (don’t want to jinx anything), but [...]

I’ve had the iPhone for two months now, time for the hype to die down, and for normal usage patterns to emerge.
During the week, it’s my alarm clock - I put it on silent mode, so calls/texts don’t wake me up, and I disable vibrate.
I carry it to work in my pocket. If I’m [...]
I’ve updated the style/theme of this blog to make it easier to read on an iPhone. Specifically, the sidebar is replaced with some basic navigation at the bottom of each page.
Everything should look as normal on other handhelds, printers and decent desktop web browsers.
Internet Explorers 6 and 7 still look poo though, given their inability [...]

I’ve decided to buy a car.
I’m 40, and never had one before, so that’ll be 23 years of saving the planet, way before it became trendy to do so.
As a result, I’ll probably get something really bad for the environment, but I’ll still have a lower life-time carbon footprint than all the Prius-driving, tree-hugging hippies [...]

It’s been about 10 days now, and am still very happy with the iPhone.
A couple of days ago, I needed to do something with my old Sony Ericsson w850i, and found it almost painful to use. Amazing that 6 months ago, I found the w850i’s display to be large and bright, and the interface fast [...]
