The “World’s First Projector Phone” completely rips off the iPhone UI

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

This is kind of a shame.  The first projector phone, the Epoq PP01, looks pretty sweet.  It can project an image up to 640x480, and can hook up to a DVD player or laptop to show a movie.  It's a great little device. The problem is that the interface is a ...

New iPods, iTunes and price drops coming soon?

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

Digg's founder Kevin Rose loves to push out "rumors" about Apple products, and he's rarely accurate.  Still, he's right from time to time, and it's fun stuff to listen to. His latest rumors: Revamp of entire iPod line. Small cosmetic changes to Touch, Nano to see significant redesign (see pic on the right). iPods ...

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

Facebook has just announced version 2 of their iPhone application, due to come out sometime in September.  Based on the screenshots they've shown, it looks slick!

If you find any noticeable differences, please let us know ...
