Apple today amongst other releases let out of the Cupertino Campus iPhone and iPod Touch firmware 1.1.4.
What does it do?
Nothing.
No really nothing.
It improves stability as everyone already knows with the Apple notes and thats basically all it says. Maybe something to do with 3rd party applications is included but not documented. Engadget say that the jailbroken phones will update without problems everything still intact but be careful and if you have any complaints complain to them not me
It is a hefty update clocking in at around 160 megs it is almost as big as a OS 10 upgrade.
If you have one of the touchscreen Apple devices then update it and enjoy the nothing.

iPods now are becoming an extension of peoples beings. I feel it is becoming like the hoover. Instead of saying “Vacuum cleaning” people say “Hoovering” and now I can see it becoming not MP3 player but iPod. iPod has a status of its own. I could go on a post about how iPods are so big now they are creating a monopoly (gives me an idea) but this post is about breaking your iPod virginity and finding you the right iPod.
This is a really good mock up of how the iPhone copy and paste could and should work. If they choose to implement it in this way I would be a happy man.
If any of the iPhone developers are reading this then take a good look. I find this video could educate you and make you see your mistakes. People complained about Leopard’s Menu Bar and you changed that. If we whine enough about the copy and paste will you? I realise I’m talking to no-one here but I am doing my little bit to help.
Funny great video.

If you have a MacBook or MacBook Pro you are probably sick and tired of hitting that software update but you should again once more as Apple has released a keyboard patch that helps when a key is pressed for the first time after the mac has been idle and hasn’t done anything. It probably also “Improves stability and compatibility” in some way shape or form. All the updates do these days.

The forgotton iPod the baby of the lot has grown bigger. He know is sporting a 2GB chip inside his little shell as opposed to the 1GB as before. There is also a 1GB version still available at a cheaper price of £32.00 but there is now (well soon) the 2GB version at £45.00! That’s cheaper than it was to start with!
Jolly Good!

If you have not bought an iPhone to me it is now looking mighty sexy to anyone who is on the fence here in the UK. O2 have just added some bolt-on packages for the iPhone now to try and entice customers into buying the device. Recently they changed the price plans and now they have added bolt ons.
Basically a bolt on is something you can add to your contract to give you more texts or minutes and O2 have a great selection that are as follows:
So it was yesterday but I am catching up on the news on the blog. Not such a big release but Apple now have the iPod Nano in PINK!
Just in time for valentines day so you can get it for that special loved one in your life. Or if you want to send me one to give to my girlfriend that works as well
How long before we see a pink shuffle?

As you may have heard in the Apple blogosphere there was a Keynote yesterday done by someone called Steve. Steve told us some very exiting things about Apple and their new (th)inovations and updates and although we have two (both LIVE and Studio) shows all about them in which we will be discussing our views and you can share yours I thought I would give you a quick rundown of the keynote’s announcements.
Ok it isn’t quite the catchy title as the MacWorld title but it does relate to it. The real title (as you may or may not know” for Apple’s booth at MacWorld Expo this week is “There’s Something In The Air”. Now what could this mean…read more to find out what Adium is telling us it is. (Maybe.)
Rumours have been flying around about what Mr Jobs will be unveiling for us this year at Macworld and as per usual with the Apple hype there are transcripts depicting what will happen. Supposedly. Mac Rumours have a couple of posts on their forum about what people are saying to be the Keynote and although these seem very doubtful to be real. One of them does sound it. Read on to view it.
