Yellow 2.0 you decide

The Yellow app has been around a while now, and although it is good in some respects in others it is lacking. Yellow and the developers are aware of this so they are looking at updating it and in doing so they’d like your feedback on how they can make it better.

iPhone OS 3.1.3 released: Tethering re-enabled [UPDATED @ 06/02 14:30]

Steve | February 3rd, 2010 | 48 Comments » | 1,302 views

Hello, stranger!

It’s been a while, but Apple have just released iPhone OS 3.1.3 which purports to fix inaccurate battery level reporting for the 3GS (let’s hope this means our batteries are actually doing better than we think and not worse) and some other minor bug fixes. We’ll let you know in an update to this post if there is any impact to the carrier bundles, so if you’re with anyone but Vodafone you might want to hold off running the update just for now. We’re updating our iPhones now and checking all facets of the bundle. We’ve heard that tethering should work again but we’ll let you know! Stay tuned!

[UPDATED @06/02 14:30 ] – Tethering now available with our new bundles. Click here to read more

No iBooks Store for New Zealand

Steve | January 29th, 2010 | 5 Comments » | 642 views

Don't go burning those old-fashioned paper books yet

Sadly, it has transpired that one of the most compelling new features of the iPad (and no doubt a future feature of the iPhone) announced at yesterday’s Apple event won’t be available in New Zealand. The fineprint at apple.com states “iBooks available in the U.S. only” but for how long? A month? A year? Forever?  Given how long it took us to get the iTunes Store, could we be in for another mammoth wait? It seems that nobody really wants a slice of the Kiwi book pie and that surprises me given how much we (as a country) love to read and how expensive actual books are here. Here’s hoping the wait won’t be long.

Tip: How to change fonts in the Mail app

Steve | January 29th, 2010 | 1 Comment » | 603 views

FONTS!

Apple. They know style, but they do like to push their vision of it in our face a little. Case in point: the Mail app. Possibly the only HTML mail client I know of that has no option to choose a font. But there is a sneaky way around it that doesn’t require jailbreaking or any third-party apps. Read on for our simple but clever tip!
