We posted a while ago about the problems we were having with the Dension Gateway 100 iPod car adaptors not charging the new iPhone 3G, well thanks to one of our readers Gabe we have some answers on what caused the problem and what the solution is if you have a Dension Gateway 100. Details after the break.
The application is now available in the app store and WordPress have just announced that it is available now. "WordPress for iPhone just launched on the App Store. Download it now and get to blogging. Video after the break showing it in action.
We posted recently about an upcoming iPhone WordPress application and they have just given us an update on it’s availability, nothing firm as yet but the app has been finished and submitted to Apple for inclusion in the appstore. from WordPress "Just a quick update that we’ve successfully uploaded the app to the iTunes Store, and the status message “In Review” indicates that the Apple team is conducting their testing procedures. We have not been provided with an ETA — so it could get approved at any time."
Alli Flowers has posted a great video overview of the Palm Treo 800W over at msmobiles. One of the things that stands out for me on this device is the speed navigating the menu’s. The treo seems really snappy and mixed with the extras that Palm add to their handsets this could be a really good device. Unfortunately CDMA only so forget seeing this in Europe but we have heard the Treo 850 GSM version should be along soon. Video after the break.
Here is an interesting graph by way of Pocketnow.com. Simply shows which phone has the sharpest display measured by Pixel Per Inch (PPI). Really is quite interesting to see the Xperia screaming ahead of the competition and I never honestly noticed you could reduce Sony Ericsson Xperia to Sexperia.
Vodafone UK and Telmap, the world leader in advanced mobile mapping and navigation solutions, have teamed up with Multimap, the UK’s specialist online mapping service, to introduce Find & Go. The launch of Find & Go conveniently converges PC location based services with the mobile phone. Vodafone customers can for the first time search for a destination on their PCs on the Multimap website and send the search result to their mobile phone free of charge.
Over at Phone Report v2.0 they have taken a look at the Nokia n810’s connectivity features and its potential for GPS. This device looks to be a great home gadget, I’m not sure about the implementation of GPS, seem like every portable device is to have GPS dumped into it.
Tracy and Matt have an unboxing of the rather attractive MWg Zinc II. It has obvious let downs on an initial glance at the spec list but its a very good looking and simplistic style that might appeal to those who just can’t get behind the E-Ten or Tytn II.
When I received the HTC Advantage 7510 for review I was a bit confused, was it a phone or was it a UMPC type device, I am still somewhat confused as to where it fits in to everyday life but having said that what a great piece of technology.
It is basically a large screened Pocket PC Professional device just too big to use as a phone but a brilliant Internet tablet and GPS alternative. Read on for the full review.
I was again invited to join the team at msmobiles this Saturday and talk Windows Mobile with Edward form msmobiles, Alli from MyTreo.net and Mickey from The Cell Phone Junkie. Edward also does a segment with Tadd again from MyTreo.net. We had a good time this week discussing Alli’s experience with the Treo 800W, Twitter and Opera Mobile 9.5.
