iPad? iDon't Get It

Keefer — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:41:26 +0000

So all the rumors leading up to yesterday's announcement by Apple of their tablet, the iPad left me wondering why in the world I would want this product as a current owner of both an iPhone 3GS and and Macbook. After reading on its features and all, I still don't get why I would want [...]

Flash on the iPhone, in Demo Form

Keefer — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 00:17:56 +0000

Even though Apple says no, the people say yes, a demo of Flash running on the iPhone — at least in a convoluted way.

I'm wondering if in the higher-powered next generation iPhone (and tablet) if we'll finally see Apple break down and have actual support for the Flash browser plugin.

Festive Screen Saver for OS X

Keefer — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:10:57 +0000

Here's a nicely done quart-based screen saver for OS X that has nice little snowflakes tumbling down your monitor or monitors. You can adjust the speed and snowflake count. Additionally, you can customize the background color and add your own image, though I like the default red-striped look as it looks like a bit of [...]

5 Gifts for the iPhone Owner

Keefer — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 19:27:23 +0000

Here's a nice and short list of a few gift ideas for the iPhone users in your life — which if it's anything like our circle of friends, family and co-workers, it's a ton.

From the list, I really like the WallDock concept. The PowerMat is really cool too, but it'd be better if [...]

Apple Tablet to be Surprisingly Cheap?

Keefer — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 04:39:46 +0000

Chalk this up as yet another rumor swirling around about an [ineveitable] product that Apple has yet to release, with details that are highly scarce, but the Apple fanboys are drooling over. Yet I'm wondering where this mythical modified and larger version of the iPhone's true utility will lie for so many users who already [...]

If They're Good Enough For Van Halen…

Keefer — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 20:18:07 +0000

Strange place for a Van Halen-related article sighting — the October 2009 issue of MacLife. It seems Alex Van Halen, along with sound engineer Jerry Harvey have had a side company for the past 15 years or so selling high-end in-ear monitors under the name, "Ultimate Ears."

I guess like his brother, using products enough pushes [...]

How Can Apple Continue to Go Astray on the Mouse Front?

Keefer — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 01:48:48 +0000

How can Apple — a company that's done great stuff on both the hardware and software side continue to screw up the pointing device that is the mouse time and time again?

Starting as far back as the original iMac's tiny little hockey puck of a mouse, Apple's made sub-standard mice. the long-insistence of sticking with [...]

WordPress 2.0 for iPhone Released

Keefer — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 02:16:58 +0000

Recently, the 2.0 version of the WordPress application for the iPhone was released. Is it sad that it's a bit of a thrill when new versions/updates for my iPhone apps appear?

Regardless, 2.0 is out, though for me, I had to go through the App store to download a new version. It did not show up [...]

5 iPhone Accessories We’re Still Waiting For

Keefer — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 20:07:20 +0000

Good quick list of hardware add-ons we still haven't seen for the Apple iPhone. The physical keyboard is especially surprising that a third party hasn't already developed. But then again, Apple does keep a pretty firm grip and lockdown on all their hardware/software.

The universal remote would be really cool. I already use the iPhone [...]

The Secrets of Pro iPhone 3GS Photographer

Keefer — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:52:41 +0000

Very cool photographs originating from Apple's iPhone 3GS. I love the idea of knowing the inherent limitations of your hardware and using them to your advantage, along with enhancing with a few choice apps on the iPhone (and of course, Photoshop). Love it.
