iPhone Facebook On Netvibes Rocks!

I will not be going to Facebook.com again for some time. The iPhone version of Facebook is great to use in any version (see it here) but I think it is better suited to a smaller screen. Hence it works perfectly as a widget. You can browse, post, change your status, check your inbox etc. And you don’t see any of the new application shit. It is simply marvellous. Ad free for the moment too.

Laptop Stolen

Macbook

Last night my house was broken into and 4 laptops were stolen. This included my Apple Macbook. Insurance should hopefully cover everything… but in the meantime it is a real bugger.

iPhone In The UK

iPhoneWhat we know so far:

  • It is to be released before the end of 2007.
  • It will be carried on the O2 network.
  • It will also be coming out in the rest of Europe at roughly the same time (probably exactly the same time).

What we anticipate:

  • The iPhone will have had a major revision before or to coincide with the new release possibly including the release of an iPhone Nano.

What we hope:

  • To see some price drops and a decent conversion of dollars to £pounds (£1 = nearly $2 now) so that we can afford to get one of the darn things!

Internet Goes Crazy Over iPhone

Wow.

World Of Apple Live is Down Already?!

The site that was set to offer live audio streaming of the upcoming Macworld Keynote already seems to have fallen offline. World Of Apple seems to be showing a “Server Not Found” message right now. And it is just 51 minutes until the keynote…

Update: Can now get the Favicon. Not the site though. Better use Mac Rumors Live instead.

iPhone - Yes or No?

The common consensus seems to now be that there will be an iPhone at least announced at Macworld tomorrow (Tuesday 9th January). I am still not convinced myself. Yes I think that it would be cool - but I am not sure that Apple have got what it takes to do it right now.

But I say this in the pure hope to be proved wrong. So lets see how it goes…

Update: Yes they released it!
