We’ve never had good cell phone coverage at home … even when we had Verizon service. The coverage with AT&T is even worse … but, we do like the iPhones. I was pretty interested when AT&T announced they were rolling out 3G Microcell devices. Basically, a Microcell is a tiny 3G cell site. It provides

I just finished the 12th book in Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden series … Changes. The book was quite good … very intense … and a shocker of an ending. I thought this was the last book of the series … but I’ve read somewhere else that there are eight more books planned for the series.

Well, not so much a complaint about the iPhone … more a complaint about the manufacturers of iPhone accessories. Specifically … I really wish they would design accessories that are supposed to hold and/or dock the iPhone so they are adjustable enough to accommodate a sleeve or case that the iPhone might be in. All

It’s been more than a year since we got the original iPhones … so when Apple announced the new hardware version for the iPhone, I figured it was probably worth getting. The new version has a lot of features that I wanted … and, frankly, thought should have been in the first version. I ordered

I was listening to WBEZ this morning and the traffic report came on … The reporter indicated that a particular road was very icy, but the city was sending out a salt truck to “make it better”. Immediately the Beatles song “Hey Jude” popped into my head with slightly altered lyrics … “… take a

I’ve encountered a weird error in WordPress … for some reason, when a post is submitted using the XML-RPC api (which is used by the WordPress iPhone app), any leading ‘<’ symbols on the HTML is being stripped out. Ginny noticed this a few days ago and I just confirmed it on a test blog.

This post is being written with the WordPress app for iPhone. As expected, it’s pretty awkward to use, but functional. Documentation is non-existent … but that’s coming, according to the announcement post. Decent integration with the camera & photo roll, although there doesn’t appear to be a way to position the pictures. Can’t see a

I can’t wait for this iPhone application … It’s not available on the iTunes App Store yet … so I’ll just have to cool my jets for a bit. Readers who viewed this page, also viewed:iPhoneNew Credit Card NumberiPhone for WordPress Technorati Tags: iphone, wordpress

Ok, I got both iPhones upgraded to the 2.0 version of the iPhone OS. Initially, I had some trepidation about upgrading a day early … and my feeling seemed to be valid when a co-worker tried to upgrade his phone and had a bunch of problems. He kept getting an “Unknown error (6)” message. I

Well, I jumped the gun a bit and installed the iPhone 2.0 update. Overall, I’m not super impressed … the incremental functionality improvements are rather limited. Some of the applications look cool, but I’ve only played with a few of them. What I’m really disappointed in is the lack of base functionality enhancements … things
Ever since I got the iPhone, I’ve noticed that it causes nearby speakers (radios, desk phones, etc) to emit a buzzing noise.

Just about any former Cingular phone has made computer, clock radio and other speakers make that nasty buzz for several years. Doesn’t seem to matter the make of the phone either. Usually the buzzing is limited to a “tell-a-pathetic” power just before the phone actually rings. But other times, it will buzz and then there is no incoming call or message. I think it just gets lonely and tries to “phone home” (pun intended
