Annoyed by your iPhone's pokey Web surfing over EDGE? Well, your browsing might get a lot faster thanks to Nokia Siemens, which is promising to double the speed of EDGE wireless networks with a mere software upgrade.

because you needed to know and this would be so cool because when the new 3g iPhone comes out, i'm gonna be a little bummed, but this would make me less bummed.

Photojojo » It’s Photoshop. On the Web. From Adobe. (p.s. It’s pretty great.)

Whether adjusting exposure, white balance, or hue, touching up blemishes, or distorting your image, Photoshop Express provides an easy slider and thumbnails to give you an instant preview of your image at various settings. Even undo is better than you’d expect.

because I haven't posted ENOUGH today! Oh, and because it's photoshop, on the web, and it's free. And I just might use it, unlike the big gorilla on my PC, the full photoshop, that scares the Shite out of me.

ProCable In Ear iPhone Headset

https://www.radtech.us/Products/ProCa...

Product Description: Enjoy audiophile grade sound reproduction from your iPhone without sacrificing the ability to make or receive calls and control your music. The ProCable In-Ear Headset provides a clean and focused listening experience by insulating the wearer from outside sound and noise thanks to their super-soft, ear canal sealing ear tips. The ProCable headset improves on typical isolation-type phones by employing a unique sound valve that opens a pathway in each earpiece to allow ambient sound to enter and be heard when the music volume falls below 40 dB. In simple terms, the sound valve alows you to hear environmental or ambient sounds when your player volume is low or off. As your player volume is increased, the valve closes to keep ambient sounds from spoiling the musical experience. This provides a level of safety as the phones do not have to be removed in order to adequately hear what's around you - simply activate the players pause button and you have immediate ambient recognition. Machined from solid billet alloy and hard anodized, each ProCable earpiece is a rugged work of art that will withstand years of hard use. Available in black on black or brushed aluminum on white, the ProCable In-Ear Headset provides iPhone users with an exceptional communications experience - you'll discover new dimensions of subtleties and instruments which you've never heard before!

These look very cool!

I've had this page pop-up twice on me, well TAKE OVER my browser
http://xponlinescanner.com/2008/3/_freescan.php?aid=77011813

it claims to be scanning my computer for viruses, infections. But I don't trust it! It has come when I'm looking at my neighborhood page. I don't if there is a post that is infected or if there is an ad that is infected.

If a pop-up says you're infected and then your browser window starts "scanning" and another pop-up asks you to install software, DON'T TRUST THEM!

are expected to fall today! Yeah!

What is this? Has anyone heard about it? Seen it? Probably geared towards 3 and 4 year olds.

One of the partners at the firm who is ponying up $100 million iFund (the iPhone development fund) said, "The iPhone is bigger than the personal computer." Do you agree?

That's an awfully big statement. I'm not I'd agree though. The iPhone is big, definitely. Coming from someone who recently converted. I guess if you compare the first real person computer to the first real iPhone, then yes the iPhone is bigger. There's already so much it can do and I would think the possibilities are endless... If they can figure out how to get even more out of the battery.

How do you think having siblings (or not having siblings) affects who you are as a person?

of course it does.
