Between waiting in line for 9 hours and the great iPocalypse activation debacle I barely had a chance to use my new iPhone 3G yesterday. I finally set it up today and started playing with it. Here are my first impressions:
The iPhone 3G itself feels lighter and softer than the original iPhone. It is, of [...]
Having upgrading my original 1.0.2 version iPhone all the way up to version 1.1.4 and stopping at 1.1.1, 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 along the way, I noticed that the battery really seemed to drain much faster in versions 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 than it had using previous versions of the software.

Unfortunately, nothing seemed to get the click wheel to respond to my scrolling movements, although clicking was restored. Ready [...]
I recently came in possession of an Apple TV. After spending a bit of time with it, I must say I’m impressed, although it’s not perfect. Setup was a very simple and it works as advertised. I have only one gripe with the device. Each machine from which you sync or stream media is treated [...]
Seth Godin has issued a challenge to marketing pundits to predict the number of iPhones Apple will sell in the coming months and years.
