This is probably old for alot of people, but it’s new to me and perhaps not everyone is aware of it.
If you’re looking for wallpaper for your iPhone, the Flickr pool of iPhone wallpapers should help you locate that perfect picture for it.
Enjoy !
iPhone owners, there’s a new application being put out by Big Brain Studios that will probably appeal to the guy owners, and not the female owners, or not, I’m not really sure.
The price is $15 and what you get is what you see in the video below. It’s actually more eyec candy and a conversation starter than anything. As if owning one of these phones is not a conversation starter by itself. They have a whole bunch of other apps [novelties] that are priced similarly.
This one caught my eye 
I’m not sure about the price tag though.
Apple has released the 10.5.2 update. Hopefully this will fix the AirDisk problem I’ve been experiencing. Currently downloading it now. If you don’t see any updates in a while - I think you know what that means.
So if you own a Mac running Leopard - grab that update !
UPDATE: 10.5.2 has been installed, MacBook rebooted, and applied the graphics update after the reboot. My AirDisk actually seems to be functioning as advertised, except it doesn’t seem to be able to be used as a Time Machine backup disk.. .. oh well I guess.
Apple has just released 10.5.2 via Software Update.
There are a slew of changes/fixes, some of which are:
- Improved Airport connection reliability and stability
- Improved Dashboard widget performance
- Updated Stacks with a List view option, a Folder view option, and an updated background for Grid view
- Ability to turn off transparency of menu bar
- Reduction in overall menu transparency
- Adds a menu bar option for accessing Time Machine features
The big one that most people will be excited about is the ability to turn off transparency in the menu bar.

Title says it all. Can’t win if you don’t play .. .. or something like that
Win a Tide-themed iPod: “Filed under: iPod Family, Video
If you watched last weekend’s Super Bowl (the height of American Football), you probably saw Tide’s ‘Talking Stain’ ad. It was one of the better ones; a man trying to conduct an interview is distracted by a nagging stain on the interviewee’s shirt.
Today, Tide has launched a contest encouraging people to make their own ‘mocking stain’ ads. Among the prizes are 34 limited edition Tide-themed iPod Classics. The size isn’t listed, but they’re described in the official rules as having a value of $300US, so we assume it’s the 80GB model.

You wanted an iPhone an iPod Touch, but wanted more storage then what was originally offered ? The great and almighty Apple Computer has answered your request.
Apple increases iPhone, iPod touch storage capacity: “Filed under: iPod Family, Apple, iPhone
After a brief downtime, the US Apple Store came back online this morning with updated, larger-capacity iPhone and iPod touch models. Our colleagues at Engadget called this update about five hours before it hit the street.
The iPhone is now available with 8GB (at $399US) or 16GB (at $499US) of storage.The iPod touch is now available in three models; 8GB ($299US), 16GB($399US) and 32GB($499US). Note that the 16GB iPhone and the 32GB iPod touch are both $499, while there’s a one hundred dollar difference between the 16GB iPhone and the 16GB iPod model.
I guess your hundred bucks either buys you a phone or double the storage space. The choice is yours.
[Nik notes from across the pond: the 16 GB iPhone is available in the UK for £329, and the 32GB iPod touch is also £329 (inc VAT).]
Thanks to everyone who sent this in!
