Google has launched a new, iPhone optimized version of their Google Books portal that gives iPhone users access to Google Books' selection via an optimized interface.

I upgraded last month from Windows 1.0 to Apple's OS X. OK, I didn't really, but it sure felt like I did. Transitioning from a Blackberry 8800 to an iPhone 3G felt a big of a leap forward, from a user interface perspective.

A new Apple patent on a motion-aware iPhone user interface points again at the possibility of a front-facing video camera for video chat in next generation iPhones. One that won't require the 3G videoconferencing kit.

It can retrieve the lost Photos, Call History, deleted Messages, Contacts through Mac OS X 10.5 / 10.6 / 10.7 / 10.8 / Mavericks 10.9 / Yosemite 10.10 with clear interface. No matter caused by system crash, smash, upgrade, jailbreak or even breakage, it can get lost data back completely. - See more at: http://www.macblurayplayer.com/macgo-christmas-promotion.htm#sthash.htWEJ9OQ.dpuf

I've owned my Droid X since it came out, and I simply love it. I can't imagine having a different phone. I feel it surpasses the iPhone in a few ways. For one, it has a bigger and sharper screen. If you're planning to play games, watch movies or shows, this is the phone for you. It might not seem like it's "that much" bigger, but it is and it makes a difference. The screen is sharp enough that I watch Netflix and HBO shows on my phone all the time (did I mention the WiFi is strong enough on the phone for this to be possible?). Also, a lot of people think they simply must have their music on their iPods. Once I got this phone, I sold my old iTouch. Are iPods better at handling music then the Droid X? Yes. But is it a significant upgrade? No, not at all. The music quality is the exact same, so the only difference is the interface. It's very easy to get the music from your computer onto the phone as well, simply a drag and drop process. Having owned the phone for almost a year and half, I have to say that the battery has declined over time. When I got the phone, the battery life was about 8-10 hours using it somewhat throughout the day. Now that is about 5-7 hours of heavier use. Even so, I still love this phone and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone!

Aurora Feint II: The Beginning starts with a puzzle game along the lines of Bejeweled, and adds social and role-playing features to end up with a fun and addictive iPhone/iPod Touch game.

Your friend just asked if you had heard this incredible story on NPR this morning, but you missed it because, well, you were still in the sack. You could go to NPR's web site and search for the program, but you'd have to start up the computer, and you're already late. Why not just listen to it on your iPhone?

The social news site Reddit.com is designed, in its own words, for accessing "what's new and popular on the Web." I find it particularly ideal for providing surfing material for when I'm stuck at the airport or in line at the DMV and need to kill some time.
