Hey Guys,

Heres a quick post; I got asked a question last night about charging the iPhone/iPod Touch, this question was from lee…“Hello, I was wondering how you charge your iPhone? Do you leave it until it runs completely out of battery, and then charge, or do you just charge randomly?”

I decided to answer this by a post, I did some research and read a few things and noticed people were saying different things;

• Keeping the battery full is what your meant to do.

• Running down the battery fully and then charging is the right way.

Now non of the above are right, but there really not wrong. The best way to preserve the battery is just use it as normal (charge it maybe every night before you go to bed) and once a month run the battery down until its completely empty and then do a full charge.

Both my iPhone and iPod Touch are both on and off the dock, so are constantly getting power but I am going to take my own advice into consideration next time.

If you have any questions, then contact me!

Thanks,

A couple of months ago, I was with some friends in town and we walked into a 3 shop. (3 is a mobile network.) I needed a new mobile phone but I couldn’t decide what was the best I could get for less than one hundred pounds (about $190).

One of my friends also was getting a new phone and they were looking into buying something really technical, but far out of his price range.

Then I came across a slightly boring looking phone that only cost £40 ($85) and I had a look at the details. Apparently I could use Skype voice and chat for free if I topped up once a month or more, and free with a contract. Not only that but there are a range of cheap deals for the internet and watching television with it. 1GB internet for a month for only £2 ($4) is really good for mobile phones. The internet with this phone is 3G, something that used to be quite expensive. It enables you to watch Youtube etc.

Picture on the below is of one identical to mine, there are black ones also.

Hey Guys,

I was shocked that Apple could fit a whole computer inside of a computer monitor! I just cant believe what I am seeing here, a company called Cybernet (I have never heard of them before) have released a computer that is built into the Keyboard, so the computer is the keyboard….

You might think this is really stupid, but for some strange reason I can see this working! The specifications are really nice and the price isn’t too bad! The computer its self is customizable (different options etc) so it will range in price. $699 - $1099.

I don’t really want to list the specs, so check out this PDF!

If you are not interested in buying one, then take a look at the pictures below;

Hey Guys,

I am always on the look out for great new/concept add-ons for hardware. Well this is going to be a really winner for gamers when the AppStore from apple is released, now let me give you a little background on the AppStore if you don’t already know…

The Apple AppStore will be similar to the iTunes Store on iTunes or your iPhone/iPod Touch but it will allow you to buy applications and games from developers. Now this is not released yet but hopefully in the up-and-coming weeks we will see some progression!

Already a lot of game developers have created games for the iPhone/iPod Touch - see this post here for more details. There are going to be loads of different games designed for the iPhone/iPod Touch! Now you might not see where I am going, but iControlPad will come in very handy! If you look at the image above, it just a case that fits around the device to create a gaming platform to hold (similar to PSP look).

Its going to be a while until the AppStore will be compatible with this piece of hardware (if ever), hopefully game developers will take this into account and create games that can be used with it! Currently, if you have a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch you can use this to play Playstation, Genesis or Super Nintendo etc… games using emulators.

Prototypes have been distributed so hopefully pre-ordering might be an option soon!

I will keep you posted on the price,

This is a photo of the OLED prototype by Samsung; unfortunately we don’t know how thin it really is?? Or what that flap is behind the display… All we sort of know is that is looks amazing and the prototype has a 12.1-inch screen with a 1,280×768 resolution… We may find out a little more about this laptop later this month?

Until then, thanks for reading, and goodbye.
