Apple’s Ideal Netbook

Sean Long — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 06:53:51 +0000

Imagine if Apple made a netbook sized enclosure that you slide your iPhone/iPod Touch into and it turns the device into a netbook. The enclosure could house; a screen, keyboard, trackpad (use the iPhone/iPod Touch screen), extended battery, speakers, SD card slot, usb port(s) all connected to the devices dock connector. The beauty of this is that the iPhone/iPod Touch already contains the most expensive bits.

Will Apple do something like this? I don’t know. But if any one company could pull it off it would be Apple, they do control the stack top to bottom.

Pros:

Fast boot
Apple controls hardware and software, so doable
Mature App Store could be expanded for “netbook” apps. Ex. A full version of Safari, TextEdit, Preview, Terminal etc
Built in cell data service and/or WiFi

Cons:

Hard to answer your phone when docked in netbook, Bluetooth headset could remedy
Apple would probably charge too much, and require a new version with each iPhone/iPod Touch change
Cell partners may not like the surge in data usage
The extended battery may need to be quite big to power the larger screen

iPhone txt msg ringtones

Sean Long — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 07:28:06 +0000

I have had my iPhone for nearly a year now and just loaded it up with my first ringtones. I almost fell off my chair when I discovered that custom ringtones can only be set for voice calls not text messages, WTF! On my iPhone 2G 16GB I only have a choice of 6 sounds for when I receive text messages! The real kicker is that the ringtones I loaded on the phone were intended for when I receive text messages, argh!

Sometimes Apple makes some back asswards decisions.

Target Disk Mode

Sean Long — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 07:05:49 +0000

Just fixed a corrupt boot partition (probably only 1 file) on my fathers MacBook Pro (early 2008). I used Target Disk Mode, installing the 10.5.6 Combo Update on it from my MacBook Pro. This feature sure is handy for a situation like this, it is a real shame that the new MacBook’s (non pro) don’t have FireWire ports. RIP FireWire/Target Disk Mode.

MochiAds

A friend of mine just released a flash game called Plink at a place called MochiAds. MochiAds is like Google AdSense for flash games, very cool.

Sean Long — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 05:01:34 +0000

After waiting over 2 months Hello is finally going to be released to the iTunes App Store. I don’t know what happened but this app seemed to get lost in-between the cushions of the “App review process couch”, oh well it is finally available.
