Showing posts with the label iPhone

Hey There, Apple!

Could you: 1) Integrate iCal with the contact list? If I type someone's name in an appointment, it would be nice to be able to click on their name and have that bring me right to their contact info. 2) Create a third wifi mode for the iPhone? I would like to connect to my home network when I am there, but not be assaulted by dozens of wifi networks as I walk down the block!

Does Anyone at Google Own an iPhone?

If so, have they ever used Blogger on it? Because it just works stunningly badly. Last night I tried fixing a post title from my phone. First of all, the "Edit" button itself is a very hit or miss affair: from my phone I find that well over half the time it simply does nothing. Well, this time, it kind of loaded my post for editing: the title came up, but the post body window was empty. "Surely just a display problem," I told myself. So I fixed the title and saved. Nope, not just a display problem: the body of my post was wiped out. Crap like this happens all the time trying to use Blogger from a phone. Oh, and commenting is even worse: once you do anything other than type in the comment box (like, say, scrolling the screen) the comment box stops accepting input: you have to click on "Done" on the phone's interface, then put the cursor back in the comment box to enable typing again.

A guy picking through garbage for bottles to recycle paused, reached into his pocket, pulled out an iPhone, and began scrolling through some list on the phone.
