iPhone 4 complaints

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010
Now that the iPhone 4 has had some time to circulate around a bit, I thought that I would go over some of the most common complaints about the iPhone 4. Although I am sure that Apple will probably fix most of the bugs in a free software update in a few months, they are still worth mentioning. Perhaps one of the biggest issues that has been causing a lot of buzz is the antennae issue. The point of having the antenna wrap around the phone was to give users more service and because putting the antenna inside of the phone would...

iPhone 4….Wow!

Friday, July 2nd, 2010
It is no secret that I am an iPhone fan.  The saddest day of my gadget geek life is when I had to give mine up because AT&T is garbage. Now that I have seen the new iPhone 4, I am tempted to put up with the 20 dropped calls a week. Every time I watch someone use an iPhone, a little piece of me dies.  I went to the Droid Eris about a year ago, and it is not the same.  The Android software was better than the iPhone software because you could customize the phone in any way you...

Thursday, June 24th, 2010
I have to admit, I still cry at night over the loss of my iPhone.  For the record, I only got rid of it because AT&T is terrible.  We had so many dropped calls, I nicknamed them butter-fingers.  So, reluctantly I went with a Droid Eris. The Motorola Droid is a better phone but too clumsy-looking for me.  I was pleased from the start with the Droid operating system and its ease of customization.  The Eris, not so much.  The battery life is ridiculous and the system is slow. However, as of recent a minor step was taken to make it...

Yes, it is real. A few weeks ago Apple decided to officially release the details about the iPhone 4. Basic information about the phone had already been leaked a few months ago because Gizmodo had gotten their hands on a iPhone 4 disguised as an older iPhone when an Apple worker left his phone on a stool in a bar, but Apple has now officially begun the ordering process for their new phone. There are a lot of cool features about the iPhone 4; here are a few of them. FaceTime: This new iPhone has two cameras. There is one in the...

Droid Eris – recent update

Friday, May 21st, 2010
Saturday night I was pumped to see that Verizon wanted to push an update through my phone.  I have the Droid Eris and from the beginning, they have been talking about this update with many new and improved features.  They delivered on them, but also a bit of a headache as well. Immediately after the update I noticed all my settings were gone.  Not only that, all of my contacts too.  For the past five or so years, I have had smart phones and compiled lots of info on each contact of mine.  I had business contacts, clients, friends and,...
