iPhone 3G Bonus Burp Included
By Robert Lachman
Since I write about Photography and the Mac, it seems like I should be at the Apple store when the first 3G iPhones go on sale at 8:00 am Friday morning. It's a camera and it's a Mac. I work tonight so it might be tough. Sleep in or check out the new 3G iPhone, that is the question.
You know you're important when Apple sends you
the phone early to review. It's a very short list. David Pogue from the New York Times is an Apple V.I.P. Check out Pogue's funny video about the 3G iPhone. He pokes fun at the new 3G iPhone's lack of new features and actually higher cost in the long run.
He didn't mention anything about iBeer, a new application from Hottrix available from the iTunes store which lets you drink a pixel beer. Talk about light beer.
The application description from Hottrix software:
Brew and drink beer on your iPhone and iPod touch. This hilarious sight-gag is fully interactive and behaves like a real grass of beer thanks to the iPho
nes sensors and our spare time.
FEATURES
Brew
Drink
Shake
Burp
Tilt to sip, shake for foam, even pour iBeer from iPhone to iPhone.
Now it can be yours!
Bonus Burp included
Get it today and stop those hangovers forever!
Not to mention video tutorials and 24/7 support.
I can't imagine how many of these will be sold?
Looking to get that iPhone updated to 2.0 one day, early check out the Mac Rumors site. They have the links to get it done. Many on my Twitter list have done it, but proceed at your own risk. You can be the first to have Super Monkey Ball or MsPAC-Man up and running. I'm getting caught up in this but I can wait until tomorrow. It will be much simpler then.
What's the big difference between my site and Scott Kelby's Photoshop insider website. Ok, besides about 8 million hits. Scott's giving away a $1000 Westcott TD-5 Spiderlite “Scott Kelby Studio Kit” to some lucky winner who answers a trivia question he poses on the Photoshop User TV. I give away a dusty old $5 Brownie. I guess you appreciate things when you start from the bottom and work your way up.
It's amazing what drives comments on a photo website, the Strobist had 61 comments so far about the Canon G9. I had to chime in. I still have a 4MP Canon G3, one of the forerunner in the series. Kelby had some of the longest comments I've ever read on a blog from a post by his Wednesday guest, nature photographer Stephen Johnson. It was just a bunch of esoteric BS over people spending too much time on Photoshop versus shooting.
3G iPhone Friday coming soon!
