Abvio Runmeter: The new King of iPhone fitness apps?

Abvio's Runmeter is a seriously great GPS-based fitness app for iPhone. Is it better than RunKeeper Pro? That depends on what you want from your fitness app: Abvio offers better on-phone data features and arguably better GPS tracking and correction, while...

New York Minute: Foursquare at Disney World

I checked in on Foursquare at every ride and scored four sweet badges in one day including the "Overshare" badge, which I'm sure my friends and followers were stoked on (not at all). It's amazing to me how thousands of full grown adults are absolutely...

New York Minute: iPhones take over The Big Apple

Smartphones are everywhere! Maybe I just notice more iPhones because I have one, but I can decidedly say that NYC has iPhone fever. From the Brooklyn bodega owner to the woman on Central Park West with her teeny tiny dog (you sure that's not a rat with a...

Dogfight! Apple vs Google vs Palm! AT&T vs T-Mobile vs Verizon! Noah vs Noah vs ... wait, what? Dogfight!

Connected iParenting 101

Now sitting around a table with these 10 über moms, I began wishing I’d home-schooled. Someone called out a telephone number. I instinctively reached for my iPhone and hesitated. How would this piece of tech play in a small rural NH town (with sketchy mobile...

Get Over It: Nobody's innocent, companies sue each other, move along

Great, another tech company has filed another suit full of patent infringement claims against a competitor. Yawn. Get over it, it happens every day, move along already. Or at least direct your anger at the system that demands these legal battles, and not the...

iPhone? Wine lover? Is NatDecants for you?

Got an iPhone? Like yourself some wine? Wish you could get your iPhone to help you find some better wines, and pair those Syrahs, Gewurtzes, and Barolos with the right foods? NatDecants can help, or so Nat (Natalie MacLean, "World's Best Drink Writer") claims.

New York Minute: iPhones, cocktails, and shattered screens in NYC

It's incredibly useful having an iPhone in New York City. I would give out iPhones instead of maps at my Concierge desk if I could (Yes, I'm a Concierge at a major hotel in midtown Manhattan). In a perfect world, everyone would have their own iPhone. Lady...

BlackBerry and the "Facts of Life"

I didn’t get to go to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this year, but I did watch RIM CEO Mike Lazaridis explaining RIM’s place in the smartphone world on Youtube. I was reminded of my Dad telling me the “Facts of Life” on a holiday in the south of...

Video calling and front-facing camera for future iPhone/iPad?

iPhone users waiting and wondering when vid chat might be possible on their handsets will want to take note: 9to5Mac has some pretty compelling evidence that this might be exactly what’s in store for us. This isn’t just for the iPhones either — looks like...

Yes, it's an iPhone makeup kit

My friend Glen just sent me an email with the subject, "iPhone makeup kit we saw at kohls." This photo was attached. That is all.

MacWorld 2010: Farm Frenzy 2 Game

Imagine Railroad Tycoon but on a farm. With ostriches. It's Farm Frenzy 2!!!

MacWorld 2010: iPhone Keyboard and Apps, Apps, Apps

Aaron, Adriana and I headed back to MacWorld for a few hours today and my primary focus was to check out the Mobile Apps Showcase. While I was chatting with the folks from QuickOffice, YouTube sensation Itsmemorphious came over to say Hi. It's always a...

MacWorld 2010: GameSalad, Beats by Dr Dre, Speck and Sketch Up

The most awesome thing I've seen in two and a half hours at MacWorld? GameSalad.com. Bear in mind that I only spent fifteen minutes with it, so it could turn out to be a pile of hooey, but I kinda don't think so. For $99/year, you get access to their game...

Spy Shot: Is this (part of) the next iPhone?

iPhone repair site iResQ has what they claim are parts from the upcoming fourth-generation Apple iPhone, due to be launched later this year. According to photos on the site, the new iPhone's front panel will be approximately 1/4" taller than the current...

Locked Up: iPhone OS 3.1.3 breaks T-Mobile unlocking

According to Adriana, any of you running your iPhones unlocked on T-Mobile should hold off on installing the newest iPhone OS update. Looks like iPhone 3.1.3 breaks TMo connectivity for iPhone 3GS and 3G models - apparently the first-gen iPhones aren't...

Smart Shopping: Whose smartphone plans are cheapest?

In general, what you'd expect is what you'll get: Sprint (and Boost) and T-Mobile are cheaper than AT&T and Verizon when it comes to talking, texting, and Web/Emailing from a smartphone. Now that's with respect to monthly voice and data fees, only - the price...

iPad UI installed on iPhone, battery drainage ensues

{Widget type="youtube" id="VheR65gYiG0&"} I was frustrated when the Apple event came and went without announcement of a new iPhone OS.  By the same token, I was intrigued by the iPad's user interface.  I remember thinking "when are we going to...

Apple allows VOIP apps to use 3G

What’s this? Apple reversed a decision? This doesn’t happen too often, so there’s little wonder then that it makes news. According to the LA Times, Apple has allowed app developers to enable 3G functionality for VOIP apps: "We revised our...

Mine is Bigger: Apple and Nokia fighting in courts, on blogs

At this point I don't even care what Apple and Nokia are suing and countersuing one another over. When we get a judgement and one company or the other is forced to stop importing doohickeys to the U.S. (yeah, right) or pay a fine that would bankrupt many an...

Grumpy Bloggers: iPad will win big thanks to mainstream America

I didn't get to go the Apple iPad launch event today, and so I haven't played with the thing in person yet. So I'm reserving any sort of actual judgement until I have. Remember kids, it's not a "review" unless the "reviewer" has actually tried the thing out...

iPad: Video overview for you who hates reading

This is a quick video Noah made mainly for the YouTube audience. But you, too, can watch it and argue the merits of iPad in the comments. Isn't Democracy fun?

iWhatever: PhoneDog + TodaysiPhone = Apple Event Coverage

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I am not at the Yerba Buena Center for today's Apple event. Bummer. And so I will compensate with my wit, charm, and manic ability to synthesize dozens of other liveblogs simultaneously and report to you with my...

iSlate: Last minute rumors and maybe a photo of Apple tablet

A few last-minute rumors regarding the Apple tablet and this morning's Apple event hit the wire in the wee hours last night. There's also a photo or two circulating about, though they're photos of a very rough, not at all shiny, prototype. First, the photos....

Shh! Secret: McGraw Hill CEO blabs about Apple tablet a day early

Here's how not to stay in the good graces of one of the guy who heads up perhaps the most secretive company in the entire tech world. Oh, and apparently Apple is launching a tablet computer tomorrow that will be based on iPhone OS. McGraw Hill CEO Terry...

Mosspuppet: The First Review of the Apple Tablet

Walt Mosspuppet reviews iSlate, Apple's tablet computer. It's magical, it's perfect, it's ... a puppet!

The White House launches iPhone application

Though I keep it out of my work personality, I'm very much into politics and business.  Having worked with campaigns in the past, my iPhone has one "page" dedicated to news, business, and politics - be it CNN, ABC News, MSNBC, Bloomberg, Yahoo! Finance,...
