There have been a few iPhone apps that suggest where things are heading, not necessarily with the iPhone as musical instrument (it is still a small toy) but with musical instruments of the future. The multi touch, inertia driven interface at larger scale is going to be very interesting as well as the proximity and [...]

“Is there a market for feature-length films on the mobile phone?” I asked Tomas Gewecke, new President of Digital Distribution for Warner Bros., at the US Mobile Entertainment Forum Conference MEFCON last week.
You’d think, by the audience reaction, that I just confessed to running over his dog.

A much publicised patent application published in December 2007 revealed that Apple had explored allowing handheld owners (such as the iPhone) to place orders from local stores. The system would, for example, allow customers to order a drink with the press of a button on their iPhone which would then notify them when their order [...]
The Digg community are having fun with this one from Engadget. A bona-fide top press and poster ad for the iPhone/iTouch in the states shows the large front screen of an iTouch that has been jailbroken or hacked Now this just shows you that Apple have really gotten their ‘tie-it-down’ attitude all wrong - [...]

Well, With the introduction of the new 16GB iPhones and 32GB iPod Touch today, Apple also released a couple of new iPhone Ads to air in the USA. Apart from the fact they never mentioned the new iPhones in the Ad, I found it interesting that they are starting to promote online social environments. [...]

Above ‘me browsing the lamp site on me lil’iPhone (I have big fingers BTW).
We are beginning to love our little iPhones (when we don’t unintentionally brick them adding alpha applications) and one of it’s coolest features of course is web browsing (including YouTube video watching etc:) over WiFi. So although this is old’ish news from [...]
A few of us LAMP’ers have had iPhones for a few months. Of course they are currently jailbroken 1.1.3’s - for R&D purposes only
One of my favourite applications is ‘installer’ which is like a portal to a vast array of free, cool (we have to use that word in every post) grass roots [...]
