There's already a pretty decent integration app for iPhone: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftwa... There also seems to be a similar app for Android (no full integration yet): http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.eva

Don't get your hopes up too much about the transcription - you still need to listen to them to get the details. It's fine for getting a vague idea of what the call is about, but otherwise it really isn't very good. Also, if you get phone sp

Isn't there supposed to be a two hour limit? That's what AT&T/Starbucks claims, anyway...

His actual review is quite positive on the 3G S: http://www.suntimes.com/business/1626818,ihnatko-iphone-3-re... I tend to feel like I'm waiting for my iPhone slightly more often, and I'm already bumping my head against 16GB of storage, s

The iPhone 3.0 SDK is public now as well. I'm downloading it now.

Not exactly - I was looking for what they've specifically fixed between 3.5b4 and RC1. I suppose I could pull a Bugzilla report, but I was hoping for just a summary. Thanks for the link, though - it's a good read.

Did you mean to post a different link?

Do they summarize anywhere what's improved between this and b4? The "What's New" section just lists the major new features of 3.5.

It seemed to double-click the checkboxes - selecting them and deselecting them. Safari 4 final on Leopard, if it helps at all.

Often after a restore, update or jailbreak I've seen visual voicemail not work until I've dialed in via phone (hold the 1 button on the keypad) and/or left myself a voicemail. It's always come back for me, though.

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Oops. This turned into more of a treatise than I'd realized. I hope this is useful stuff, and not too nit-picky. I also see I'm the only one so far mentioning these things, and I'm interested anyway, so maybe I'm just being

No. I've cheered for new features or things I thought were particularly cool, and if I'm a plant then I'm seriously underpaid.

Because for many of us, technology isn't just our job - it's a defining characteristic of who we are. And given that many of us debate operating systems and programming languages, discuss tools and improvements, and learn new technologies i

You're right, it wasn't the newest example, but I didn't say it was newer - I mainly thought it was an example of better Rails design and development than the linked article. (Why should the controller be concerned at all with what orient

Searching for just the iPhone UA locks out other mobile WebKit-based browsers that may prefer an iPhone page, such as Android and the Pre. Even if you do want to serve just iPhone users, I think you'd be better off adding a new mime type an

Yeah. Just checked my pricing at http://buyiphone.apple.com/ - $699 for a 32GB until July 12th, at which point I'm eligible for a "standard iPhone upgrade" - whatever that means.

If anyone actually believes slapping a sticker on their computer will cause Apple to lose a lawsuit... then I have a title and offer to the Golden Gate Bridge I'd like them to consider.

This. Model.transaction do ... end is not that hard. Also, in Rails 2.3 you can do .find_each, which will iterate over each record in 1000-chunk batches.

Having been a Mac IT consultant/monkey for a number of years in a past life I'd argue the printing system in Mac OS X is still flaky, annoying and poorly designed... but to each his own. :-P (I nag because I love.)

Ooh, that's awesome. Yeah, it's still hard to touch-type on, but not having to hit the FN key for brackets would be a lifesaver.

I have a Dell Mini 9 I've hacked to run OS X. It's not going to replace my MacBook Pro anytime soon, but it's the perfect kick-around town/living room computer. The install, while not yet one-click, is fairly simple to do and works with a s
