  • VLC Hits the iPhone

    Heck. Freakin’. Yes.

    VLC is one of the greatest pieces of media playing software around and it has been successfully ported to the iPhone!

    Currently vlc4iphone is only been released to a select group of beta testers (ie. people who’ve given this guy money), but hopefully there will be a more public beta release soon.

    Codec support is limited to MPEG / MPG, AVI, MP3. However, the developer (zodttd) is planning on adding support for FLAC, OGG, and is also looking into supporting VCD, DivX, WMA, WMV.

  • Coming soon…

    Finals are over, so I might actually get a chance to update the repo now!

    Ed has sent me two new themes, I just haven’t had a chance to add them, but expect to see them up within the next day or so.

  • 10.6 Snow Leopard

    Word on the street is Apple is already hard at work on Snow Leopard, the successor to Leopard.

    According to sources:

    Snow Leopard is currently on track to come out during next January’s Macworld, and it will not contain major OS changes. Instead, the release is heavily focused on performance and nailing down speed and stability.

    Snow Leopard will be an Intel only release.

  • 3G iPhone Scandal

    Supposed 3G iPhone Maybe scandal isn’t the right word, but it comes close.

    TUAW is reporting not only that the supposed leaked iPhone picture shown to the left is real, but that the iPhone 2.0 firmware will not be shipping at WWDC. Okay…does this mean the firmware upgrade won’t be available right away from existing iPhone users, but that it will still be shipping on the new 3G iPhone?

    If the leaked image turns out to be real, what are your thoughts?
