I got to play with my friends iPhone 4 the other day while he was helping me move into my new house. I asked to try the iMovie editing feature out so ran around the house and grabbed footage of it. Very zoomed in and crappy but it was the first video to test it out. I dont like the wobbly effect you get when moving fast. I was in a hurry so there was no choice but to just grab something quick. I do like the editing features though!! More videos to come soon. Dont throw up watching this!
This Mothers Day was great, I got to talk to my mom, sent her flowers and recorded a song to play for her. I also got the kids to help me get up and grab some McDonald’s food as well as buy a Mr Coffee for Charity, she loved it. And then to top off the great weekend spent with the kids, I decided to get that free month of Netflix they been promising (lol) and loving it. Gavin and Harmony both know how to go on the computer and search and start playing the movies instantly. I think I actually feel good now that technology is caught up enough that its easier to just use netflix that to pirate movies. Back to supporting great films. Too bad I think I am supporting the terrible ones too but Netflix is a must have for everyone, seriously… You can instantly watch from computers, iPad, iPhone an Xbox 360, PS3 and even the Nintendo Wii. Then if you really want them to mail you dvd’s of movies to watch (like I ever use media (dvd’s cd’s) anymore though) then you can. I took some pictures of the babies all trying to rock my hat and be super cool as well as their cousin Austin. Enjoy the photos and as I got home tonight I found a package in the mail, it was the latest UsCast pass out cards. Anyone want one? They are cool and hopefully they will be helpful in getting the word out… Want some? Seriously, just post a comment and let me know and I will get a few dozen to you to give to people. GO LISTEN TO OUR PODCAST!!
People will always fight, its in our nature. Everyone wants something else no matter what they have. How about you take today and think about the ways you could fight these rages and you will be a better person for it. I use creativity to not become a serial killer! Yeah, when I feel angry in any way, sad because I dont have as much as the other guy, I make a lego toy! Not exactly but I create! So everyone out there, go out there and create today!
From looking on Gizmodo, Engadget and other sites, mostly Twit Live, I came to the final conclusion. You let me down Apple. You have fun with that device. Thats just gonna be another thing I will never own unless you can impress me with the developed apps that are coming, but honestly. I don’t want this at all, let me count the ways!
Big, Ugly Bezel Have you seen the bezel on this thing?! It’s huge! I know you don’t want to accidentally input a command when your thumb is holding it, but come on.
No Multitasking This is a backbreaker. If this is supposed to be a replacement for netbooks, how can it possibly not have multitasking? Are you saying I can’t listen to Pandora while writing a document? I can’t have my Twitter app open at the same time as my browser? I can’t have AIM open at the same time as my email? Are you kidding me? This alone guarantees that I will not buy this product.
No Cameras No front facing camera is one thing. But no back facing camera either? Why the hell not? I can’t imagine what the downside was for including at least one camera. Could this thing not handle video iChat?
Touch Keyboard So much for Apple revolutionizing tablet inputs; this is the same big, ugly touchscreen keyboard we’ve seen on other tablets, and unless you’re lying on the couch with your knees propping it up, it’ll be awkward to use.
No HDMI/HD Video Out Want to watch those nice HD videos you downloaded from iTunes on your TV? Too damned bad! If you were truly loyal, you’d just buy an AppleTV already.
No Flash No Flash is annoying but not a dealbreaker on the iPhone and iPod Touch. On something that’s supposed to be closer to a netbook or laptop? It will leave huge, gaping holes in websites. I hope you don’t care about streaming video! God knows not many casual internet users do. Oh wait, nevermind, they all do.
Adapters, Adapters, Adapters So much for those smooth lines. If you want to plug anything into this, such as a digital camera, you need all sorts of ugly adapters. You need an adapter for USB for god’s sake.
