I was syncing my iPhone this evening and decided to check for an update. I have been anxiously awaiting the firmware update that allows the iPhone access to the iTunes WiFi Store. Guess what?! It was available!

I downloaded and installed it just now but haven’t had a chance to play with the new store yet. I was too excited and just had to blog about it. Anyway, it’s available. It may have been available, who knows… Obviously, I didn’t. I have it, am gonna play with it, and will report back later to tell you how great it is. Yes, I sad great… I mean, come on, it’s by Apple, it has to be good!

Until next time…

UPDATE: Apple has also changed the appearance of the Calculator application’s icon. Why?! Who knows…

Today I was working around in Safari on my iPhone and it just locked up. I couldn’t get the home button to respond. I couldn’t hold down the Sleep/Wake button to get the “Power Off” prompt… Nothing… I did some searching and found this article which enlightened me on two different features I didn’t know about. I’ll share them here.

Obviously, we’ve already covered that if you hold down the Sleep/Wake button (this button also silences incoming calls when you don’t want to deny the call but just want it to quit ringing aloud) on your phone for a few seconds, you’ll be prompted to move a slider to power off your phone. To power the phone back up again, press the same Sleep/Wake button.

The next tip that the article told me about was this. If you have an application lock up on you, where your iPhone seems frozen, you can hold down the Home button (the round button at the bottom of the phone with the white rounded square in it) for six seconds and it will terminate the frozen app and return you to the iPhone’s Home screen. I did not know what…

And, the last trick this article told me was how to do a hard reboot of the phone. Basically, you just hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button simultaneously for a few seconds and the iPhone will power off. This is what saved me in my situation earlier. Again, to power your phone back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

I hope this helps someone out there. I take no credit for determining these tricks on my own. reference the article I mentioned in the first paragraph for my source.

Until next time…

Thanks for your e-mail, Patricia. I still find it odd that so many women in the world today are having issues with their penises. I am glad that Mega Dik worked for you and that your tool is terribly bigger than civil. I also love the use of the word whizgiggle in your e-mail.

I just have one question, Patricia: How big is civil anyway?!

Until next time…

Well, well, well… I woke up bright and early this morning at 7:15AM and went to the good ole’ MacBook and had a message from a buddy of mine from Spain. He sent me a message about the iPhone being $399.00 USD. Well, I looked it up and here is the proof. How disgusting! I mean, like, 40-45 days ago I paid $200.00 USD more than that for the 8GB iPhone… Oh, well… I guess you have to pay to play…

While I was digging around on Apple’s Web site I noticed that they did unveil another iPod called the iPod Touch.. This is an iPhone without the iPhone. Nice! Great design though… I mean, if the iPhone is beautiful then this little device is beautiful… It just looks really bare without the additional icons that the iPhone has… Again… Oh, well….

$399.00?!?!?!?!?!???!!!?!??!!!!?!?!!!oneone

Until next time…

I know I am blowing up my site today with SPAM, but I just wanted to start writing again…

Since I have been carrying my iPhone and checking my personal e-mail account with it, I have been very amazed by the amount of SPAM that Thunderbird detects and blocks. But, since the built-in mail client on the iPhone doesn’t have a SPAM filter and my e-mail host has limited resources for blocking it at the server, I have received many SPAM messages lately. Most of them are hilarious!

I am about to start a new category on my blog titled SPAM. In this category I will be posting up a lot of the SPAM I receive that I find humorous. I’ll post any links and whatever with these posts. Just be sure you don’t follow any of them.

I’ll start with this one today:

My Comment:

Josiah’s wife wants a bigger penis, too?! Interesting…

Until next time…
