How Do You Stack Up?: The Wiener Chart

Note: Viagra-sized version of the chart HERE . This is a chart showing women’s preferences of various sized wieners . Basically you want to fall into the red-hot or sessy-magenta zones, which is a shame because I’m way off the chart in the upper right. Like, a mile off. As a matter of fact, the more I think about it, my wiener can’t even fit on a 2-D chart

iPhone 4 Battery Bumper

It’s a bit amazing we haven’t seen more iterations of the iPhone bumpers with power packs built in.  I guess the primary reason would be the bulkiness added, but once company doesn’t care and that’s Energizer. Energizer introduced their AP1201 battery pack earlier this month for the iPhone 4.  It’s a iPhone 4 specific bumper which includes a built in batter pack.  The battery inside the silicon bumper is made of their patented lithium polymer battery technology.  The power pack adds another 200 extra hours of standby time, 27 extra hours of music time, 7 extra hours of video time, or 5 extra hours of talk time on 3G networks. It’s hard to tell from the picture how much bigger it makes your device, but the video after the jump gives you a real world comparison.  (more…) Powered By: 2010 USB Powered Gadgets and more..

Yahoo Messenger 2.0 for iPhone hits App store, brings video calling over 3G

While a new update to the Yahoo Messenger app on the iPhone would be eventful in and of itself, the latest version brings a very special gift — video calling over 3G, and not just phone to phone, but phone to computer or vice versa. Unfortunately in our quick tests, video calling seems to be buggy, not reliable, and above all, pretty low in the quality department when we do manage to get it working. In addition to video calls, the newly updated Yahoo Messenger brings free voice calls to other Yahoo Messenger friends, supports background multitasking, and more

Samsung Focus Windows Phone 7 device coming to Rogers

If Telus will be getting their hands on the HTC 7 Surround, Rogers , for their part, will be releasing the Samsung Focus as their first Windows Phone 7 offering. The Samsung Focus sports a 4-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen, 5-megapixel camera with flash, and runs on a 1GHz processor with 8GB of internal memory expandable via microSD card. It’ll also come with a “ completely redesign user interface (IO) as well as applications such as Music Hub, People Hub, Office Hub and the ability to play games with Xbox LIVE. ” This one certainly looks like a worthy alternative and a good match-up to the HTC HD7 .

Guinness Foreign Extra Stout

Claiming that Guinness Foreign Extra Stout is a new offering from the esteemed Irish beer brand is technically inaccurate. The reality is it was brewed for more than two centuries and dates back to 1801. Back then it was known as West India Porter until the mid 19th century, distinguished by its more intense flavor by being brewed with extra hops. This excess of hops also helped preserve the beer longer, giving sailors something to drink no matter how long the trip. It was even available in the states from 1817-1920… that is until Prohibition struck.

Lose your WP7 handset? Find it with an included AT&T feature

Even though it looks like WP7 won’t have Cut and Paste in its initial release, it has a feature that looks like Find my iPhone. This definitely shows off how WP7 can sync with a PC, and have a lot of cloud computing functionality as well. I don’t have much on this new feature, but I heard that this feature will be free of charge on all AT&T handsets like the Samsung Focus , HTC Surround , and LG Quantum . I’m sure we’ll be hearing more about this soon.

No LTE/4G iPhone From Apple in 2011

Apple’s iPhone is one of the most popular smartphones on the market. Outside of the United States, many wireless carriers feature support for the mobile phone. However, when it comes to the United States the iPhone is offered by just AT&T. This has angered many because AT&T has been known to have shoddy service in various parts of the country. Luckily, rumors have been circulating for quite some time that say AT&T will eventually bring the device to Verizon Wireless .

Root Most Android Smartphones Including Froyo by SuperOneClick: Video

Apparently there a new super-root method that’s hit the net called SuperOneClick that can just about root any Android device out there in smartphone space, including those running Android 2.2 Froyo . According to an article over on Gizmodo by Brian Barrett and by way of the guys over at XDA-developers , there still isn’t a complete list of Android devices SuperOneClick can root but apparently to start off it will root the Samsung Captivate , Motorola Droid and Nexus One. Apparently SuperOneClick also enables the user to side load applications onto handsets such as the HTC Aria and as you probably know AT&T placed a restriction on doing that, but not with SuperOneClick. Word is though SuperOneClick is currently only for Windows, but should be pushed over to Linux and Mac in the not too distant future. However caution is required when opting to use SuperOneClick to root your Android smartphone as it doesn’t carry an unroot button as yet.
