This was a rather interesting article found on Technorati. Apparently, bills for iPhone customers are huge. Really huge. Amazingly huge… I think you get the idea. AT&T seem to think that listing every single data connection for your account is necessary. And on an account with unlimited data usage, there are a lot of connections! [...]

Opera are making a nice little jab at the iPhone in this video. It pretty much mirrors what a few of you have already said in your blog posts. While I’m posting videos from YouTube, there is a review from the New York Times by noneother than the (more than slightly strange) David Pogue…
Hi all, If anyone actually reads my blog, any ideas and suggestions related to my idea (see My Idea Thus Far and Beaten Again for info. about my image editing program). Just leave ideas in the comment form and they’ll get e-mailed to me. If there is sufficient “interest” in the idea, I’ll continue to [...]

Create a mobile compatible, image editing tool. Kind of analogous to Photoshop or The GIMP – but for a small screen. Constraints Network Given the limitations (currently) of writing a native iPhone application, the application would be slower/less capable than if it could run natively on the hardware. The largest problem would be the speed [...]
We’re sitting in the sun at the moment out the front of the Wilkinson building, which for the second time this week has no power. Rob’s lecture was very rudely plunged into darkness – after the lights flickering for a while. That was probably a sign of the impending power-failure! Beth suggests the uni install [...]
Somewhat remarkably, the normal WordPress interface mostly works through Opera Mini on my Nokia 6234! Of course, typing this using predictive text on the keypad isn’t all that quick, if i wasn’t on a capped data-plan this would cost as much as an iPhone , the browsing speed on 3g is glacial and the screen [...]
Some of you may have come across Opera Mini before. It’s a free web-browser that will run on any cellphone that has Java support (if you can play mobile games, you probably have Java) which is good news for my trusty Nokia 6234. Although it won’t run on the iPhone. Instead of directly requesting pages [...]
That was a little quicker than I expected, in fact, it’s been online since the 28th of July… It’s nothing more than a simple “Hello World!” application, but since they have already reverse engineered the iPhone’s API someone can make an nice app – and hope Apple doesn’t sue them for doing so
The Fauxto Interface Original photo: The Nightingale at Rotorua The photo after being modified by Fauxto As mentioned in an earlier post, while doing research into the viability of my project I’ve come across a service called Fauxto which implements a basic Photoshop like image editor. Fauxto is made using a Flash 9 based interface [...]
My original idea of making a Web 2.0 image editor (Photoshop-esque) turns out to not be terribly original. In 10 minutes of Google searching I found Pixer and Pixenate which both do server-side image editing. So far though there are no mobile oriented apps but I’m sure there are some available online if I keep [...]
