  • Firefox 3 gets release date

    Firefox 3 Final is set to be released Tuesday, June 17th.

    If you haven’t heard yet, Mozilla is aiming to set the world record for most downloads within 24 hours with the release of Firefox 3. You can check their progress here.

  • Firefox RC3 is Live

    If you’re sneaky like me, you’ll already know that RC3 is live on Mozilla’s servers as of this morning.

    But for those of you who are not sneaky, here’s a link to the Mac version.

    Everyone else can grab a copy here.

  • Farewell iPhone

    I sold my iPhone. Yes, it’s true. But that’s not the insane part, the insane part is that I’m not planning on getting an iPhone 3G.

    Not only is the monthly plan more expensive for the iPhone 3G, but I’d be paying for a service that I couldn’t use. There is no 3G coverage in Nebraska. At all.

    A friend of mine who has connections at AT&T said that 3G was supposed to roll out this fall in Nebraska. If it does maybe I’ll reconsider.

    Anyhow, I guess I’ll be switching back to an iPod touch for the time being.

  • ACU Theme Released

    I’m pleased to announce the release of ACU Theme, the latest and great from reader Ed Jim.

    As always, you can grab a copy from the repo.

  • iPhone 3G has landed

    3G on the iPhone is 36% faster than on other leading smart phones (likely because of Safari).

    Built-in GPS.

    Cost: $199 for 8GB, $299 for 16GB (comes in white and black).

    Launch: July 11th
