Due to the recent release of iOS 4.2 my iPad was automatically updated by iTunes when I reconnected it to my MacBook Pro.
I thought it was really cool to have Multi-tasking and Folders to aid in management of all the apps on my iPad.
It was nice to finally have both iOS devices, iPad & iPhone, use the same user interface.
The biggest surprise was AirPrint. This feature that allows you to print from your iOS device to a shared printer.
My printer wasn’t on the approved list, so initially I wasn’t able to find any printers, but after following the directions to re-enable...

Sometimes we become so focused on the pursuit of a symptom of a problem that we don’t stop to ask if we are still focused on the real cause of the problem. This happened to me recently.
During the iPhone development process you have a choice of debugging the iPhone App using the iPhone emulator or using the actual hardware. The quickest way to test out your code is to build and debug using the emulator.
While developing an iPhone application for Podcast Stockton I used one of the iPhone Audio libraries. It never occurred to me that the emulator might not do everything the hardware...
I recently posted about “iPhone App reviews” where I wrote about a video podcast called the “Daily App Show“. While I was watching one of my favorite video podcasts “Tekzilla” I came across another video podcast that covers iPhone and Android news and App reviews. The name of the podcast is “AppJudgement” by Revision 3. They also have a youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/appjudgment.
App Judgment takes a slightly different approach to demonstrating the programs. It has the look and feel of a professional news show. I have really...

Over the past month I have been watching a new Video On Demand show on my TiVo. The show demonstrates a new App each day. I find the information presented very informative and useful.
Here’s what I learn with each show:

I can see what is being charged for these features.

To see what they have available you can visit their website at http://dailyappshow.com/
At the time of this post, it appears they are posting videos for iPhone, iPad, and Android...

It has been 90 days since I first bought my iPhone and the Otter Box to protect it. I wrote a post about it in January, iPhone insurance aka OtterBox Defender. During this time I have probably dropped my phone more than 30 times. I have never dropped my cell phone so many times in my whole life. It must be related to one of Murphy’s Laws; the chance of dropping something increases with the cost of replacing it or something like that. Here are a few of my thoughts about the Otter Box now that I’ve been living with it for a while?
