  • The iPhone is amazing

    Further proof that the iPhone is the greatest phone on the planet…First a little back story, my girlfriend teaches a drama class, and said drama class was preforming a series of one act plays. At the last minute they realized that they didn’t have all of the sound effects they needed. Enter the iPhone.

    They needed a dog barking. The iPhone has a ringtone of a dog barking.

    They needed an old telephone ringing. The iPhone has it (actually named Old Phone).

    They needed an old car horn. And you guessed it, the iPhone has it.

    So using nothing more than default ringtones and an iPhone held up to a wireless mic I was able to provide sound effects at the last minute for a theatrical production. And that ladies and gentleman is why the iPhone is just so amazing.

    For the life of me though, I cannot figure out why anyone would choose to include a dog barking as a ringtone…

    Ed has submitted another theme, xudaz, which is now available via the repo.

  • More Eee PC giveaways!

    If you missed the memo (and the ensuing knockoffs), Eee’s are hot right now. Not only is some bank in Canada giving them away for free, but now PowerUp Mobile is as well.

    UK customers who sign a two-year contract with PowerUp Mobile for T-Mobile’s Web n Walk broadband service will get not only a free Eee (2G), but also a free USB modem.

    PowerUp Mobile - Free Eee

    Again, this offer is outside the US, but maybe someday we’ll get a similar deal.
