What's the one thing you hate about gadgets? I hope you answered battery life, because that's at the top of my list. Battery life has gone downhill, and it probably has everything to do with convergence, at least when it comes to cell phones equipped with music players, video cameras, and video games. iPhone 3G users have been complaining about the phone's battery life since its release, and the battery on my first gen iPhone has been doing worse since I updated the software earlier this year. So what's an iPhone owner to do?

In this video, He show you how to jailbreak your iphone 3g using quickpwn. (These steps will work for the iphone, iphone 3g, and the original ipod touch.) By the way, this program, which is free, will work on both Windows and MAC OS X.

SnaptureLabs, developers of the popular unauthorized third party application Snapture that extends iPhone camera's capabilities, have announced that they are making 1 million copies of Snapture Premium available to iPhone owners for free (normally Snapture Premium for iPhone costs $7.99).

September 22, 2008 (Computerworld) Apple Inc.'s patching process proves that the company isn't serious about moving Macs into the enterprise, security researchers said today. One dissenting expert, however, said it was unfair to compare Apple's patching procedures with, say, Microsoft Corp.'s. "You have to evaluate the patching performance of the company if you're looking at Macs," said Andrew Storms, director of security operations at vendor nCircle Network Security Inc. "And the last two weeks hasn't been a gold star for Apple."

"Hey, a lot of really cool, normal people use Windows so don't be too embarrassed and switch to a Mac because that would be bad for society." "Remember that Microsoft has helped every sector of society do their jobs and solve really complex problems. Remember that this whole cool concept that is causing a lot of people to switch to a Mac is sort of bogus because even the really cool people, like NASA engineers, use Windows. And, remember that little kids in Africa are likely never going to be given the chance to switch to a Mac."

Users in USA, be prepared for the unlocked version of Palm Treo Pro! Yup, that's right. You can now purchase the unlock version as the manufacturer (Palm, that is) have announced the availability of the unlock version of this smartphone for United States market.

In this video I review the his Game "Dizzy Bee" for the Iphone and Ipod Touch. I talk about this gam and give a full review of all of the features in this game. I discuss the sound the graphics and the Gameplay

This is the Unboxing video of my brand new iPhone 3G 8GB version.

Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 3G and the G1 with Google (GOOG) unveiled on Tuesday have a lot in common. Both are smart phones designed for users who want easier access to the Web than is offered by the current generation of RIM (RIMM) BlackBerries. They share a lot of features - high res (320 x 480 pixel) color displays, motion sensors, support for GPS and Bluetooth 2.0, and venues for third-party apps. And they share some of the same flaws - both are locked to their respective networks, both lack video recording capability and full cut-and-paste text editing, to name just a few.

Now that Apple has sold 160 million iPods, reshaped the music business and inspired dozens of competitors, maybe it's time to admit it: this music player thing might be more than a fad. Yet in all this time, almost nobody has brought up the screaming flaw that's built into every one of those things: the earbuds. That's right. Hundreds of millions of times a day, music player owners jam little white discs into their ears without a thought, rendering themselves both deaf and rude to the outside world. And that's if you can even get them to stay in. A sizable chunk of the population lacks the proper cartilage formation to hold earbuds in place. (I'm among them. Don't tell anyone.) How about a little sympathy for these long-time sufferers? Where are the self-help groups? Where's the telethon?

A whole lot has been happening in iPhone-land lately. The 3G iPhone is now available unlocked…in China. If you want to write a nasty note about an iPhone Application, you're going to have to pay for it first. Lastly, Apple has lowered the number of iPhones it will manufacture this year, but has raised the number it thinks it will sell.

Boutique analyst firm Freeform Dynamics took a run at standardizing on Macs but the switch was not worthwhile. They're now back in the Windows fold. Their report starts by posing a series of questions about business benefit. They found that when pressed, business users were hard put to come up with anything other than woolly answers. So what usually happens when an average business user switches to Mac?

Dilithium, the global leader in high-quality multimedia delivery over mobile and broadband networks, announced the availability of live video and Video On Demand (VOD) streaming support for the iPhone utilizing the Dilithium Content Adapter (DCA). The DCA iPhone solution is an infrastructure offering that can be deployed by operators and service providers enabling their customers to access live or on demand video content through the standard iPhone Safari browser.

It looks like AT&T was initially planning to launch the BlackBerry Bold before November, but, as evidenced by launch parties running all the way to the end of the month, they've obviously pushed things back a bit. An internal letter advising employees about rescheduling training said "at this time we don't have clarity on the status of all features".

The latest Net Applications survey, which gathers browser data from "site visitors to our exclusive on-demand network of live stats customers," shows steady increases in those using Mac OS X to access websites in September versus a steady decline in users using Windows operating systems. Though the survey claims to reflect market share, which is normally measured in unit sales, it does use a consistent method to examine trends in user share.

There are two common methods for running Microsoft Windows and Windows programs on an Apple Macintosh, and one of those methods just got better and easier.

iPhone users shouldn't get their hopes up if they want to view television on the iPhone - or any video that doesn't come directly from iTunes, for that matter. In its zeal to maintain control over the user experience, is Apple denying its users a better experience?

This software is completely free, and it allows you to transfer almost any video file into an MP4 format that the iPhone will be able to recognize and play.
