So after a long wait and crazy searching, I finally got my iPhone. Since I got out of film school early today, I decided to hit up my mom to see what was up with her. She was waiting in Santa monica to get my iPhone. When I met up with my mom at the apple store I saw that she was already in front of the line with her amex in hand. She ended up purchasing the 16gb(white) one for me, I must say it's pretty sweet. Thanks mom!
This is supposedly a leak picture of the new 3g iPhone. If you look close enough in the front of the phone you'll see that there is a a camera, for videochat maybe?
If you didn't know, I'm a huge fan of FPS. For me, it all started with quake, then unreal tournament, then counter-strike, and finally with Halo. I'm not a addict like I use to be but being able to play one of your favorite games with one of your favorite portable devices is just AMAZING!!! Check out the video below.
The amazing thing about this is that you'll be able to play over a lan network with other people AKA multiplaya!
Well since 3G means a faster network when it comes to file transfer & whatnot then I guess they had no choice to make it black in the back(Please ignore my horrible black joke). Rumor has it that the new 3G iPhone that should be releasing sometime in June (or earlier), may have a different touch to it besides the extra boost of speed. It may even have a new 'dark side' to it. Check out the leaked picture above.
If you guys didn't know there is a huge update coming to the iPhone/iPod Touch. Those updates consist of the following:
VoIP over WI-FI
Third party applications (iChat, 3d video games, customizer, etc)
Microsoft Exchange
Active Sync
APIs and tools to build iPhone apps
There's way more stuff but I don't have the patience to type it all out. What really amazes me though is how they're going to have 3d gaming on the iPhone. Here's one of the games in action.
Apple has also decided to team up with gaming Company Sega so they can help create some of the games for the iPhone. Here's of sample of what they'll have in store.
Watch out for the Newton Virus, it brings gravity to your desktop!! The virus is in a usb key. All you have to do is plug it in and then it infects your Mac within seconds.
Your desktop then collapse.
It also has some type of gravity sensor, so that your icons will be able to flop around your screen when you move it around.
I think this is a pretty cool virus, but I am kinda sad that it's a mac virus, WHICH SUCKS! This means people are going to start paying attention to macs when it comes to hacking, great. No need to worry though, It's a rare virus. The virus will only hit at random, but only once. It will not replicate itself, mail itself to your friends or destroy any of your files. So this is a pretty nice virus that's just for pranks and whatnot. This is also part of the Design and the Elastic Mind show at MoMA in New York.
So I woke up this this morning and immediately jumped on the Apple website. When the site finished loading I saw that Apple has released and updated the Macbook pro now with the multitouch pad like the macbook air and it also has the new Penryn processors!!!
Apple also updated the Macbooks by boosting up the Ghz up to 2.4 Ghz!! woohoo!!!
Rumors are going around saying that there may be a new/updated Apple product releasing tomorrow. Many think that it's going to be a new Mac book/Mac book pro with macbook air-like qualities. I guess we'll see tomorrow if rumors are true.
