New Fring Update Brings Video Calls To iPhone

by | Dec 1, 2009 | | 0 |

  A new update from Fring is now available which legally allows video calls via the iPhone.  It sounds great up front, but does not allow the iPhone to transmit video, rather it allows for a PC or Mac user to transfer to you.  According to the developers it is only a limit of no front camera on the iPhone. The other catch is that you have to use WiFi to use the video feature.  Other than those limitations this brings us a step in the right direction of all future calls showing video if one chooses.  The app is free and is available now.

Happy Windows 7 Day!

  Windows 7 is officially among us.  The long awaited Vista replacement/upgrade is a significant step in the right direction for the Operating system.  Windows has met the maturity of OSX and the differentiation is more of a preference than that of security and stability.  Windows has driven me to long nights and near insanity in the past with its numerous bugs and whatnot.  This time there has been little hair pulling since the first beta was made available.  Now we can all rest for awhile and have a worthy succesor to XP.  If you’re in the market for multiple PC’s or copies for Boot Camp on your Mac then check out the $149.00 family pack and save yourself some money.

Dodge Unveils EV to Compete With the Tesla

  Now that gas is costing us a fortune and can jump up and down from day to day, electric is looking more and more like the way to go.  The Dodge EV was unveiled a couple days ago, but is a step in the right direction not only for our wallets, but in style.  The Dodge is not that different in style to the Tesla Roadster which has had the media talking for over a year.  The Dodge is slightly larger and offers a 150-200 mile range.  There is no price yet or release date, but Chrysler as a whole, has a bunch (a few more were released) of EV vehicles and it all has to start somewhere.  Now when can I buy one and for how much?

Fox Releases More DVD’s with DRM for iTunes

by | Aug 29, 2008 | | 0 |

  There have been a few DVD’s released that have digital copies of the movie itself ready for use in iTunes. If you have not come across any, the reason is due to studios trying to maintain their hold on the content you already own.  Lately though the movie studios have realized we are going to rip the DVD’s if they don’t anyway.  The DVD’s now come with a digital copy, DRM protected that can be used in iTunes and moved to your iPod, iPhone or Apple TV.  While this is a step in the right direction, DRM is definitely not.
