A man with one iPhone calendar icon knows what day it is; a man with two iPhone calendar icons is never quite sure.LCfiner said:

Im+ is really good also.
I really hope next week's iPod event brings iPod touch's with 16, 32 and 64GB at the same price points. (I'd get a $300 32GB model.) As well as the rumored camera and video capture.
Oh, and the return of Steve Jobs. I hope.
Of course I'll probably be working that day. So I'll have to watch the keynote after work.

An Update on iPhone MMS for our Mobility Customers
I feel a little bit sorry for AT&T. Probably because I haven't lived anywhere with major problems in their service coverage
From the above link:
The NYTimes had an article yesterday on AT&T's problems with the iPhone. They changed the heading though:
Last week the WSJ asked 'Did AT&T Get a Sour Apple When It Snagged the iPhone?' If so, still their fault:
The most important news today is that I've found a way to display tooltips on the Phone. It's through a javascript bookmarklet, Paren tips*, that shows all the tooltips on a page in brackets after the mouse over object. I can read the full XKCD on the phone again
*Get an iPhone bookmarklet for saving bookmarklets so you don't have to sync from your desktop browser
That's the date Apple is releasing iPhone OS 3.1 perhaps?

I wish whoever is responsible would improve the quality of youtube videos over 3g. It's so bad, I don't use youtube unless I'm over wifi.

So glad that AT&T is going to make their "late summer" deadline for MMS. Last time I looked Sept. 25 was in the Fall. MMS means almost nothing to me though, so not a huge deal. More interested in the details on tethering.

MMS is really only nice to have so people with less capable phones can still send me things. I don't think I'll be sending many/any MMS messages, but I certainly do receive them from time to time.Kung Fu Jedi said:

This is gonna sound silly, but it's been bothering for a few days. Do any of the 3GS owners experience the faintest crackling sound when pressing the home button? after putting on that damn protector I fear that some of the included spray may have made its way beneath the button where it dried out and started creating that sound on the first press (it goes away right after).
I'm neurotic about these things, sorry.

Just came back from the Apple store. I've recommended the Speck Candy Shell in here a few times. They have a bunch of new colors, and I picked up the black/gray "Bat Wing" one. The quality went doooooooown big time. Exchanged it for another one and same cheap issues. I recommend people stay clear of them now.

I'm thinking of moving off iPhone to iPod Touch. Does anyone know if the data migration works from iPhone to iPod Touch? I've read it at least works the other way - back-up your iPod Touch and restore to iPhone. But how about reverse?

What phone are you going to switch to? Like a simple flip phone? Just curious.

Everybody I know who isn't an iPhone user, which is still a large majority of my friends, send MMS all the time, it is infinitely more user friendly for everybody as a wholeRubxQub said:
I've been using swirlyMMS for awhile, and my only complaint is that it is on the slow side, but most apps on the Cydia store

I'm the exact opposite. Almost no one I know uses MMS. I've probably received 3-4 total in the time that I've owned the iPhone. While I welcome the addition of having the feature, it'll really have almost no impact on my use of the phone.
And most of the people I know don't use iPhones either.

Comiczeal is worth it for the rotation inhibitor button alone! I wish the phone itself had that function across all apps!!!

So, Nick Cave's new novel got released on the iPhone today. It's an app that you download and it features the text of the novel, the audiobook of the novel - read by Cave - and some music to soundtrack the novel, as well as some arty video stuff. I am being vague because I'm not sure of the exact content, as they think that we should pay £15 for this app. That is more than the Hardback version is available for.
Regardless, you can find it here: http://bit.ly/AE6aA

Ha, there is a jailbreak app for thatTheWiicast said:
. Bet you Comiczeal doesn't have an auto rotator though. Comic Reader Mobi flips to landscape when you get to a page that's more of a widescreen shape or bigger than usual (like a double page spread). Saves me the trouble of doing it myself.

Surprisingly better than I expected for an official app. No crazy load times, everything seems to move pretty smooth. Way better than what they tried last year, and yes, in a pinch you could use this to set your starting lineup, but there are some pretty serious caveats:
1. When you are trying to swap out one player for another, it lists EVERYBODY eligible, including players already starting at other positions. This is just foolish design. There's no easy way to visually see who's starting, either; the app focuses too hard on consistent colors when it could really use, say, green for on the lineup, red for off to give an at-a-glance idea.
2. When you're looking at the head-to-head matchup, estimated points are not listed and you have to tap a button to view the other team's stats, instead of just scrubbing to the right as the app has you do on the main page! :lol
3. Each player has a very dangerous "drop" option on their player info page. Really, why is this even there?
4. No way to determine game-day status, as far as I can tell, which kind of rules this out as a use-every-day tool. No player news, either. Maybe that shows up on thursday, but without this kind of info it's too risky to use.
5. Ads. Can I just damn well pay for an add-free version already? I don't mind having free and non-free...just give me the option. Some of the ads are temporary but really damned ugly banners.

Yeah, you're right. I think it's weird that it doesn't show anything by default though. Really no reason why it should stay blank.

Hey guys. On September 20th At&t is rolling out "A-List" which is their version of MyCircle or myFaves. A $60/month plan gets you 5 numbers to call for free anytime or a 90$/month gets 10 numbers on a family talk plan.
This should be enough to get some iPhone users to save some money each month and go down to a lower minutes plan. It doesn't really affect me since I am already on that plan and barely use any minutes (mobile to mobile or texting) so it's a bummer here but I'm sure it's answered prayers for others.

Quick battery life question for you guys.
After letting my phone drain till its dead, I'm getting noticeably worse battery life. After being on standby all night it went from 100% to 84%. I know thats not horrible but it use to still be in the upper 90s after idling all night.
I heard letting the battery drain all the way isnt good for the phone but I couldnt have messed up my battery life that bad by draining once right? Is there anything I can try to fix this?

Are you sure that is the case? At this rate, I'm not even getting a 3rd of the supposed 300 hours of standby time it is supposed to have. I know that is just an estimate, but I should be getting better than what I am.
The phone is a 3gs by the way.

No, you'll lose your jailbreak if you update without the new Pwn tool. If you go ahead, you should be able to jailbreak again whenever the tool is released (I don't think Apple has made an insurmountably lock yet).jts said:

Yeah, I thought this new version of iTunes would make syncing faster? It's still the same slow, annoying process it's always been.
At least iTunes seems to run smoother now on my PC. It always chugged, that piece of crap.

Oh hell yes! The app "Japanese" finally updated to version 2.0.
I was using Supreme Prefs 3.0 but i won't recommend it, it's unstableCritical Jeff said:
The developer of 8icon dock said he'll have a new version 'soon' but still haven't seen it released on Cydia yet. You can install this version but it's slightly buggy. I haven't had to restore yet so I'm fine with it. SSH into the phone then install like so...
Here's how it should look with larger icons:
(you can readjust which icon is in the foreground.)

I couldn't figure out why I was seeing an update for Japanese until I remembered they had a free day ages ago. Never used though.Why don't you just sync it with iTunes?neojubei said:

I do, but exactly does that have to do with iRinger?
Anyone notice that the outgoing call symbol is now placed AFTER the caller info in 3.1, compared to BEFORE in 3.0? I felt that screen changed somehow, but didnt realize how until now. I think it looks a bit cleaner.
Anyone notice any other visual tweaks/changes such as this? Im a sucker for this kind of thing.
