Have you tries such Apple iPhone Camera 6X Zoom Telescope?

2008-06-03T11:13:20+02:00

Now that manufacturers are creating add-on lenses for cellphone cameras similar to the one we saw at CES. They need to step up their funny to attract your attention. This iPhone telescopic lens does just that, adding a nifty protective iPhone case to go along with the lens. The good news is that it does seem to zoom in a crapload (see photo after jump) and long distances with the power of a digital camera and video it is like taking a portable video camera/still camera in your iPhone. but unless that lens unscrews from the body, there's no way you can call the iPhone "pocketable". It says it's an absolute must for people who want to snoop without being noticed. But if the iPhone's camera was better I'd consider something like this. For the lame 2MP camera witch crap low-light performance, I don't think it's worth it. That and it's dorky.But it's really a Interesting and cool gadget. Makes me paradoxical, Have anyone tried this? What do you think of it?

iPod Touch Tricks for you!

2008-06-03T11:11:05+02:00

First of all let me state that these are the best of the tips I have learned from other forums (ipodtouchfans.com and apple-touch.com) or from the iPod Touch features guide on apple’s website so I don’t believe they are propriety information. I think they are some valuable tips that either Noobs or experienced users can use. I would be happy to edit my post from time to time with tips that you all suggest.

1. If you double click the home button in any application, or with the screen off will bring up the music controls. This will not work if completely powered off.

2. When inputting a great deal of text in Safari turn it to horizontal view. The keyboard will be bigger and you can get a better grip of the Touch while typing with two thumbs.

3. If you have made a spelling mistake, press and hold the word you spelled wrong and a magnifying glass will appear. Slide your finger back and forth to move the cursor bubble. This also works when manually keying in addresses in safari.

4. When scrolling through a long page in Safari - tap the bar at the top of your screen containing the address bar, time, and battery, Safari will automatically return to the top of the page and the show address bar.

5. Power saving tip:Turn off WiFi in the settings menu to save iPod battery power when not in use.

6. Holding down letters on the keyboard will pop up the accents/symbols associated with those letters. Once it pops up, slide your finger over to the accent/symbol you like.

7. In Safari double tap to zoom in. You can also "pinch" (putting your thumb and index finger on the screen and pinching in and out) to zoom in Safari and in Pictures.

8. You can charge your iPod Touch from any powered USB port. Such as a computer, printer, media center. The device does not have to have iTunes installed to provide power to your iPod Touch. Also per apple’s website the old iPod Chargers that use a fire wire input will charge your iPod but I am not sure if they will sync it.

9. When watching a movies/video, tap to bring up the onscreen controls. When you are done watching a video make sure you press done so your progress will be saved. Also Blue dots on the movie list screen mean at movies has not been played.

10. When typing if you want to add something from the numbers keyboard just hold down the numbers and slide your finger to the number or symbol you want, and release. It will take you back to your letters keyboard. This way you won’t have to tap numbers, tap your number, then tap numbers again to go back. This also applies for using the 'shift' key to apply capital letters.

11. In Safari, if you are presented with a link hold your finger over that link, and a bubble will appear showing the URL that the link is tied to.

12. A good web based instant messanger is www.meebo.com www.meebo.com for AIM, yahoo, MSN, and google talk users.

13. To organize Videos or Movies:

Open iTunes, on movie file right click, "Get Info".
Go to video tab, change video kind to "TV Show" and add show name (category to organize by).
Files with same show name will be grouped into one folder

14. If you want to makes your ipod touch be much more attractive . An unique ipod touch case will gives your iPod Touch a great look and style. And it is supposed to give your ipod Touch protection from scratches and minor drops. Dust resistant and keep dust from absorbing on the iPod Touch screen protector case for much static charge.

Hope these tips and tricks be helpful for someone!

Say something about iPhone cases!

2008-06-03T11:06:06+02:00

Hundreds of iPhone cases have been released in a variety of styles and colors since the iPhone was released. Those who invest in this new exciting technology will no doubt look for a good way to protect their investment.

I just got my two iPhone cases from www.easyipodshop.com I really love what they’ve done with color for the flip style case (bought mine in slate blue) and with the classic black for my holster. The interiors are superb, all velvet and very soft to the touch, and the finishings are one of the best I’ve seen. Comparable to Sena and Vaja but about half the price (40 bucks plus shipping)

I couldn’t stop congratulating myself for choosing this iPhone leather case over many others that I considered when looking for a case for my new iPhone. The material truly is first class leather and the craftsmanship is top-notch. The item is relatively inexpensive and shipping from CoverCase was amazing. I really cannot remember the last time I had such a marvelous online shopping experience!

I see posts like this and I have to say .. dont get it … why spend $2.99 plus dollars then more to protect a screen when you can get a case like the Otterbox Defender iPhone case for $49 and then you have something that actually protects your iPhone. I had the others they offer bump protection .. the defender case that I bought from easyipodshop.com is great .. I now dont worry and the case comes with a belt clip and built in screen and camera protector…. I know you can find prettier cases but you have to ask fashion or a broken iPhone …

After reading all the posts I went to easyiPodshop.com got my case there …. .. the otterbox defender case I did not need to purchase a iPhone screen protector or anything else .. just the case and my iphone is not easier to hold and it a case that looks like it will protect my phone … Thank you for the tip about that site and I would definately recomend them …. good prices … got it fast and they did not rip you off with shipping .. heck I only paid $5.0 for shipping!

Thanks again …. iPhone users unit!

Tips to care for your battery!

2008-06-03T11:03:38+02:00

For many users, recharging their cell phone batteries consists of the daily routine of plugging in the charger, and then leaving it on for a couple of hours to juice up. However, depending on your battery type, overcharging or undercharging it could result in a shorter life.

You should also understand that due to the chemical processes involved, batteries deteriorate over time. After a certain number of cycles, the battery's maximum charge capacity drops to below 80 percent of its original capacity.

Battery type Number of charging cycles

Nickel cadmium (NiCd) 1,500

Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) 300-500

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) 500-1,000

Lithium-polymer (Li-Po) 300-500

Therefore, heavy users who recharge frequently may have to purchase new iPod batteries after a short time compared to light users. However, not every battery will reach this number of cycles before starting to lose charge. For a battery to reach its natural life, proper maintenance is necessary. Batteries may look tough, but they can be inadvertently damaged.

There are several things you can do to maximize the useful life of your battery.

Take care of your cell phone batteries to maximize your phone life!

2008-06-03T11:01:06+02:00

Cell phone and Apple Ipod are considered to be the best invention of recent times. With the cell phone, one can communicate and stay in touch with anyone, anywhere, at anytime. The latest cell phone(and my lovely iPhone) models also facilitate internet browsing through WAP, video and photo cameras, MP3 players and radio. Some even permit word processing and other features of a PC. All these functions use a lot of power, and are possible because of the great cell phone batteries used in the cell phones. Along with call quality, a cell phone's battery life is one of the most important considerations when choosing a cell phone or smart phone,past and present. It's never fun to watch your cell phone die while you're in the middle of an important call. And it's no fun either to have little power when you're nowhere near a cell phone battery charger . While manufacturers make lots of promises about a phone's battery life, the rated times don't always hold true to real-world use. That's why we focus on the talk-time battery life.

Cell phone batteries(also iPod batteries) are usually made of Lithium Ion (LiOn) which is a lightweight and rechargeable cell phone batteries that have no effects on the memory of the cell phone. When you first use the cell phone, it is necessary that the first charge is for eight continuous hours. It is important that you charge the battery for so long on its first charge else the battery expires before its intended life span.

Different models of cell phones use different batteries with different capacities. Some phones offer vibrator alarm features where it is the battery that vibrates. Then there are cell phones that offer long talk time which need a stronger cell phone battery. This is why it is not advisable to swap batteries between cell phones. All that happens is damage to the unit.

Whichever cell phone and cell phone battery you have, it is important that you don't expose both the cell phone and its battery to extreme moisture and heat. Though it is important that you periodically charge the battery, it is important that you don't overcharge it as the resultant heat can explode the unit. It is better that you avoid dropping the cell phone batteries while draining the batteries occasionally and then charging them fully lengthens the life of the cell phone. If the cell phone is not used for more than two months, then the battery has to be recharged completely before using.

And remember that cell phone chargers aren't "one size fits all." Whether it's a car phone charger or a home phone charger, you need to make sure the model you get is compatible with your phone before you buy. Right charger to match the right cell phone! And in my memory, I've only met the universal iPod chargers only! So simply carry an extra handy and light travel charger and you can charge your cell phones and iPod fully anytime, anywhere so that you can enjoy maximum play time.

And if you want to Maximize the Cell Phone Battery Performance, you can read my another post "How Can I Maximize Cell Phone Battery and ipod battery Performance?"

Suggest you a good screen protector for your iPhone!

2008-06-03T10:55:03+02:00

iPhone Screen Protector

The Apple iPhone features a beautiful 3.5-inch widescreen display. Apple expects iPhone owners will use their new device to watch movies, browse the web and check email. To access the features of the iPhone, you need to use the revolutionary muli-touch interface. Being a phone and using a touch interface, the iPhone will be susceptible to scratches. Having a scratch on your screen can have a negative impact next time you sit down to watch your favorite movie or television program. To avoid this, the best iPhone accessory investment you can make will be an iPhone screen protector .

Protect your iphone

Protecting your screen isn't as simple as purchasing and iPhone case. Each time you pull out your iPhone and touch the screen, there is a potential for scratches. Shortly after the release of the iPhone, many manufacturers will start to offer iPhone Screen Protectors . These are popular among PDA owners looking to protect their investment.

Made for iPhone

Be sure to look for iPhone screen protection that is made for your iPhone. They should be perfectly cut, making it easy to apply and offer immediate protection. Some vendors offer templates and require you to cut the plastic covering. This is less than optimal. When the iPhone is turned on, a good screen protector is hardly noticed. Some screen protectors will also offer enhanced usability due to the finish. In general, iPhone screen protectors are a good investment and easily removable should it start to get dirty. In the end, it's a small investment to protect a much larger investment, your iPhone.

iPhone Screen Protector

The iPhone uses multi-touch technology which requires you use the touch screen to navigate the phone. This will undoubtedly result in "smudges". While cases can protect your iPhone from drops, an iPhone screen protector will protect the screen from accidental scratches from a fingernail. It is a further safeguard against mishaps and allow you to enjoy Zoolander in all it's glory.

The guys at EasyiPodShop are offering "clear" Apple iPhone Screen Protectors . That's right, they're clear. Not opaque, but "clear" screen protectors. Nevertheless, they're really cheap and useful, protecting against scratches and fingerprints, not covering the whole device, but just the screen. Differently-shaped/sized models are available for all of Apple's portables, including the iPhone. A screen protector for your iPhone costs just $0.99.

The US $1.99 Screen Cover for your iPod Classic protects against scratching, scraping and abrasion, it is removable without leaving residuary mark, it resists to erosion & fingerprints (this feature alone is actually worth buying the product), it is anti-reflective, and, of course, non-corrosive. It comes bundled with a special cleaning paper too. It measures ~5.2 x 3.9 cm. Best of all, EasyiPodShop says there's no bubble trouble (air bubbles) with its products.
