30 Days of iPhone - Day 11
I am using my iPhone too much.
I have noticed I’m starting to get some serious eye strain by the end of the day.
I can only conclude that it’s the iPhone, because that’s the only thing that’s really changed in my viewing habits over the last few weeks. It started out as a [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 10
This thing has officially become part of my left arm. I’m getting so used to using it, I’ve noticed that I don’ use my Macbook Pro as much as I used to…and that’s a good thing.
I used to keep my Macbook Pro powered up almost 24/7. Why? Mainly so I could check [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 9
You know, I really thought there would be more to talk about for the 30 Days of iPhone articles. It’s actually getting hard to come up with much to discuss….the thing, for the most part, just works. I’m getting used to having it in my pocket, and I use it constantly. I [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 8
So, last night my Mother-In-Law stayed over at our house. She asked me to show her what the iPhone does. I showed her all the features of the phone and what it could do. Then she asked me how much it cost. I told her. Do you know what she [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 7
Wow…had an interesting little freak out today.
All of the sudden, right after I turned the power on, the iPhone icons started dancing around the screen for a few seconds, then a box came up with red text that said “checking connection…” a progress bar spun for a second, then it went away and everything [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 6
Does it say something about a device when it is easy enough for a 4 year old to use?
I think it does.
My daughter has been interested in the iPhone since the day I came home with it, and I have let her press a few buttons on it over the course of the last week, [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 5
So, the iPhone is starting to feel normal. Does that make sense? It’s already making the transition from being this super cool gadget that I love, to being this computer I keep in my pocket.
Yesterday my wife was driving and I was sitting in the passenger seat. A reader had [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 4
So guess what I did last night? I manually deleted 1,300 emails off my iPhone.
That was ultimately the only way to get rid of them. I tried to go into Gmail settings and stop them from downloading, but Gmail doesn’t treat the iPhone like it’s a POP3 email client. Emails still appear [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 3
Well, I guess I’m going to have to live without Gmail, because I can’t seem to get it to work right, no matter what I do. It works fine on my notebook, and I even decided to bite the bullet and delete all 1,300 messages last night…but they kept coming back. I would [...]
30 Days of iPhone - Day 2
So I’ve been having email troubles on my iPhone yesterday afternoon and this morning. Turns out I’m not the only one.
In fact, everyone I know (that I’ve asked) are having the same problem with the Yahoo! push email service. Evidently Yahoo makes you enter a code every now and again that lets them [...]
