Following on from the Apple press conference on Friday, it seems that Apple have ruffled the feathers of rival manufacturers, by trying to implement them in the issue of reception problems. You may recall, that during the conference, Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs came out to defend the iPhone 4 , amongst growing criticism of the iPhone Death Grip, where holding the iPhone 4 in a particular way can lead to signal going from full bars to no bars in a matter of seconds. One response from Apple to this problem is to admit to a flaw in the software algorithm that calculates signal strength, which has been dealt with by a software update that was rolled out via iTunes last week. Despite going on to say that less than 1% of all calls to Apple Care regarding the iPhone 4 related to signal problems, Apple acknowledge that where problems exist, encasing the handset in a case, or Bumper can help, so promise to be giving out free cases and Bumpers for the iPhone 4 up until 30th September. What happens then remains to be seen.

Forget dressing your iPhone 4 in a bumper or just some case. What your iPhone 4 anntanae needs is a Bandaid! Or in this case – an Antenn-aid . The Antenn-aid is a silly alternative to a bumper, it’s essentially a sticker that looks like a bandaid and is designed to be placed over the lower left corner of the iPhone 4’s antanna in order to help improve signal performance.

The new Echo Smartpen improves on the previous generation of Livescribe products with a sleek ergonomic design that features a rubberized grip and anti-roll surface, it’s also available with the biggest capacity ever – 8GB! Livescribe has also made charging the device more convenient, with a micro-USB connector, and the Echo now has a 3.5mm audio jack so that users can use whatever headphones they’d like with it. But I’ll be honest, I had my doubts about a pen that needs to be charged. But, Wow.

You got to admire how Motorola turns around its mobile phone business by just relying on Google’s Android OS.

Today, again, Motorola launched two new Android phones in Taiwan – Motorola Quench MB501 and Motorola Quench XT3.

The Brilliant Things, a popular new Irish band, opened the Vodafone stage at the Oxegen festival last Friday with an exclusive… the first time a song has been performed with iPhones, live on stage at a major European festival! The band said “This year we had the privilege of being the first ever band to perform on the new Vodafone stage at Oxegen, so we decided to do something a little special to celebrate.” Good stuff.  I have to admit, every time I get my leather jacket with studs on I feel like I need an iPhone attached as well.  Thanks to Peter at Amp for sharing with us. © PatrickJ for Just Another iPhone Blog , 2010. | Permalink | | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: iPhone guitar solo

This latest update to Articles ($2.99 – review ) adds a feature I was *just* starting to miss: a chapter list for Wikipedia entries (which the devs call a “contents sheet”). Articles already supports a nifty double-tap scrolling mechanism that allows you to jump through the chapters of an entry as if they were all on a scroll bar, but it really wasn’t an adequate replacement for a real chapter list. At the very least, it’s nice to know which point you’d like to jump to, instead of scrolling blindly, chapter by chapter, to see what’s on the page.  If I sound like I’m complaining, I’m really not.

Apple have just concluded a hastily convened press conference, to respond to the growing bad press the new iPhone 4 has been receiving, in regards to the now infamous reception issues, popularly known as the ‘iPhone Grip of Death.’ The press conference started with a short presentation, led by Apple CEO Steve Jobs, and he started off by pointing out that all phones will suffer some kind of reception issues when held in a specific manner, citing the BlackBerry 9700, HTC Eris and Samsung Omnia as examples. After explaining all the testing that the iPhone 4 went through before release, Jobs said that Apple were aware of the reception issues the iPhone 4 had, but didn’t see it as such a big deal, seeing how this is something that all phones suffered from to some degree. The rate at which a phone shows the signal dropping is calculated on a software algorithm, which differs from phone to phone. Apple have noted that there was a flaw in their calculation, which was resolved by a software update rolled out for all iPhone handsets through iTunes, which started going live yesterday.

A new Nokia phone has been spotted – Nokia C6-01, which as you can guess is a variant of the existing C6 model ( announced alongside two other QWERTY phones – E5 and C3 ). The difference between the C6-01 and the original C6 is in the camera – instead of sporting a 5-megapixel camera like its older cousin, the C6-01 rocks the 8-megapixel one along with a dual-LED flash (instead of a single LED flash)

Qt has quietly rolled out the Qt Developer Network in a hope to get developers on board. Still in beta, the new site offers such “standard for developer sites” content as blogs, wiki, forums and FAQs. From the mentioned blogs, we learn that future plans include Ovi account integration, groups, eLearning content, books section and videos. It is a somewhat different approach taken by Nokia (owner of Qt) to make a separate site — i.e. not part of Forum Nokia — though it’s still on Nokia’s domain.

One of these days, each one of us would settle with our loved ones in the sacrament of Holy Matrimony in which we would plunge into another phase of our lives. Though, some of us sometimes would gladly opt for single blessedness on account of they would be happy evangelizing the word of God through this noble way. Yet, even though having moral and ethical intentions to marry our loved ones it is inevitable that we would have marital problems that we have to face down the road. We would have problems regarding our finances in the future for the reason that maintaining a household these days is very costly because all of the basic necessities are spiraling every day that even how hard we toil in the office to make both ends meet our paycheck would not suffice for our daily subsistence for the rest of the month and even days.

When a phone is out of battery, it takes long time to get the phone fully charged. The new kind of battery – Graphene Battries is developed to solve this problem by cutting down charging time from 2 hours to about 10 minutes. The new graphene-based electrode fabrication process in cooperation with Princeton researcher Ilhan Aksay under a cooperative research and development agreement with Vorbec, also developed by researchers at the Energy Department’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), has been licensed to Vorbeck Materials Corp.
