Does palringo send yr account data via its own servers? suspicious about having to make an account w/them.

Have given up on NYTimes. That syncing is awful bullshit. It's trying to pull all the pictures as well, which r dum

Eh, I worry more about using aim & non-ssl websites on open wifi networks

Anyone know how I can find out if my parents buy an iphone in Japan, if that'll work in Belgium? Yes, I'm a complete moron/noob, but I still want a (cheap) iphone. :-(

hmm. *Still* no way to mark as unread, and now can't re-read an article -- as soon as it's read, it vanishes.

stet, Monday, 28 July 2008 13:10 (fifteen years ago) link

also it's very stuttery and crashy and can you even collapse folders yet?

s1ocki, Monday, 28 July 2008 15:50 (fifteen years ago) link

just saying.

s1ocki, Monday, 28 July 2008 15:50 (fifteen years ago) link

anyone found a good site for app announcements/reviews yet?

s1ocki, Monday, 28 July 2008 21:59 (fifteen years ago) link

I think you're posting on it.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 28 July 2008 22:30 (fifteen years ago) link

Man, does Remote kick ass or what? Between that and the VNC client, I actually have a useable way to run a media center from my iPhone.

J, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 03:57 (fifteen years ago) link

anyone else getting the eeeeeeendless backup whenever you sync?

s1ocki, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 04:37 (fifteen years ago) link

Yeah. You can disable it if you don't want your stuff backed up.

Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 04:47 (fifteen years ago) link

i'm getting rid of some unused apps and seeing if it has an effect.

s1ocki, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 04:55 (fifteen years ago) link

damn it always seems to stall out at the 3/4 mark. wtf

s1ocki, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 05:08 (fifteen years ago) link

Man it's a hoot making this work on Ubuntu.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 05:36 (fifteen years ago) link

Making what work on Ubuntu? Yer iphone?

Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 05:44 (fifteen years ago) link

iPod touch to be exact. Spent the last couple nights working on it, a real comedy of errors. "Oh ok, fixed that. What's this? OK got it. What?" Every step met roadblocks for some reason. Finally it turned out the FirewireGUID was wrong for some reason; I fixed that and everything started syncing perfectly.

Still no album art though.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 08:12 (fifteen years ago) link

i saw a guy with an ubuntu license plate yesterday

s1ocki, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 13:04 (fifteen years ago) link

man you Linux newbies are a hoot

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 13:26 (fifteen years ago) link

Ok, who will be first to break their iPhone?

Any good push to talk apps?

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 16:03 (fifteen years ago) link

1Password for iPhone is out!

... and it sucks!

Allen, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 20:44 (fifteen years ago) link

yea, what's the point if it doesn't safari sync

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 20:47 (fifteen years ago) link

nyt app seems much faster on its new update

s1ocki, Friday, 1 August 2008 17:58 (fifteen years ago) link

any other exciting new apps?

s1ocki, Friday, 1 August 2008 17:59 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm still having a blast with 2 Across. Best five bucks I ever spent for the iPhone

Mackro Mackro, Friday, 1 August 2008 19:49 (fifteen years ago) link

I finally got a 3G compatible car charger, and now I can run my phone's headphone jack into the AUX port on my stereo. Pandora in the car = bliss.

Pancakes Hackman, Friday, 1 August 2008 19:51 (fifteen years ago) link

what's 2 across?

s1ocki, Friday, 1 August 2008 20:13 (fifteen years ago) link

Is there a 3G-compatible car charger with Apple Bluetooth headset charger built-in yet?

schwantz, Friday, 1 August 2008 20:18 (fifteen years ago) link

anyone tried netshare?

2 Across is a really good crossword puzzle app where you can download puzzles past and present from the WSJ, the NYT (with subscription), the Onion, thinks.com and several other places.

The one thing not explained properly is how to enter a word. If you tap twice really fast, that brings out the typewriter. You can also also customize what is revealed, checked, and what isn't at your own leisure. There. Have fun.

Mackro Mackro, Friday, 1 August 2008 20:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Just downloaded netshare - will try tonight.

schwantz, Friday, 1 August 2008 20:37 (fifteen years ago) link

seems a bit pricey

Every sudoku game reviewed

Elvis Telecom, Sunday, 3 August 2008 17:52 (fifteen years ago) link

Well, short answer is it works (NetShare). A bit of a pain to set up, and not something that I would use all the time (especially since the connection dies whenever the phone goes to sleep), but good in a pinch, and FAST on 3G.

schwantz, Monday, 4 August 2008 03:00 (fifteen years ago) link

and FAST on 3G

Really? How fast? Where are you located?

Allen, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:00 (fifteen years ago) link

NetShare's off the store here again.

Have bought that Google Reader app; is much better than NNW, and also has a stab at doing the Instapaper thing via Google notebook. Nice.

stet, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:02 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm in San Francisco. Not sure exactly how fast, but it felt way faster than when I tethered to my old SE EDGE phone over USB. Almost like DSL.

schwantz, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:13 (fifteen years ago) link

The frickin' store gateway is annoying. Apps that I buy can disappear? Lame.

schwantz, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:15 (fifteen years ago) link

has anyone got the rpg VAY??

s1ocki, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:20 (fifteen years ago) link

(sequel to OY?)

s1ocki, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:20 (fifteen years ago) link

has anyone got the rpg VAY??

It was terrible when I played it on Sega CD.

Allen, Monday, 4 August 2008 18:21 (fifteen years ago) link

ugh someone let me know if netshare ever comes back. totally slept on it :(

phil-two, Monday, 4 August 2008 19:23 (fifteen years ago) link

What I don't understand is what happens if I sync my apps now? Does it go away?

schwantz, Monday, 4 August 2008 19:25 (fifteen years ago) link

nobody's sure, and nobody's syncing!

stet, Monday, 4 August 2008 19:40 (fifteen years ago) link

has anyone got the rpg VAJAYJAY?

s1ocki, Monday, 4 August 2008 19:51 (fifteen years ago) link

If stuff I paid for disappears, I smell a class action suit...

Now I know just what it feels like to get cancer from a polluting refinery.

schwantz, Monday, 4 August 2008 20:29 (fifteen years ago) link

i know i keep complaining about this but is netnewswire just COMPLETELY broken for anyone else? like, stalls out and crashes all the time, can't even scroll through feeds?
