Fresh release in the Apple Store!! First external web browser available for download.
After reading an article I directly downloaded the app and I was really surprised by the quality of this browser.

The main page can be personalized with your preferred internet site.  Once you are in a site you can still switch between several pages.

Conclusion: You need to try this app!!

Ever went to Spain and would have loved getting some Tapas & Drinks the proper way (in Spanish)? Want to appear more “local”?

There are a few options if you don’t already speak Spanish:

1) Take a course, spend money and time, repeat that a few times till you get the right level.

2) Marry a Spanish girl or guy and try to see if you get to learn the language

3) Get Jibbigo on your iPhone!

Jibbigo won’t let you look less geek but will make you “automagically” speak Spanish helping you out in any foreing country where Spanish is the main language. So how does Jibbigo work?  Jibbigo is an iPhone application that costs about 25$. This application is able to listen to somebody speaking English and translate it to Spanish (and other way around). Looks promising, isn’t it? Well, the video is actually even better! Check it out.

The other good thing is that it doesn’t need an internet connection to do its magic but a 3Gs is recommended.

Just a quick post to notify whoever doesn’t check the Appstore at least 4 times a day (for updates or new apps) that a new version of Dropbox (what a good service this is!) has been posted to the Appstore yesterday.

This update is meant to fix a few things, most notably, the compatibility with OS 3.0. Lot of people didn’t upgrade to 3.1 either because of the know “random shutdowns” or because no jailbreak was available, those same people couldn’t use Dropbox on their iPhone as the application simply would not run on an iPhone running an OS lower than 3.1

We could argue the speed of the approval process as this update came out AFTER 3.1.2 was released and a JB being available, still, always good to see updates flowing in.

My recommendation? Signup with Dropbox (using this link we’ll get a bit more space each) and install the iPhone app right away. Personally love it!

Luxembourg can already count on some local and specific apps. That’s nice already…

What’s even nicer is when one of our favourite applications announces an update. Yes, Yellow has published an update to the AppStore for approval! That’s not it, we from LuxiPhone will be able to get a full hands-on preview beforehand!

Here is it how it looks right now:

That’s the way it looks now….and I guess soon we can reveal all the improvements exclusively here

What? Are you that one person who doesn’t have yellow.lu on their iPhone? Thank God we make your life easier..get it right here

I think I’ll leave this video to your comments…

There are people that just can’t stop having ideas, some even very good, or so simple that you say:”Why didn’t I think about it???”

When you are Jack Dorseay (co-founder of Twitter) then your mind must be filled with good ideas. With his new company called Square he developed the Square iPhone Payment System. A tiny cube to be mounted on the headphone jack (iPhone and iPod Touch) and a software to be installed (to make the little cube card reader work) that will allow to accept credit card payment by swiping the card in the reader.

How clever?!?

Can you imagine people travelling around with a payment system in their pockets? Shops where any employee can accept your payment wherever you are without having to queue? That sounds pretty good to me…

Jailbreakers beware. Apple released iPhone firmware update 3.1.2 that resolves the unwanted shutdowns and reboots issues. The dev-team warns that their jailbreaking tools are not yet compatible with the new firmware.

Not really, but still somehow… Yes.

We now have in the Appstore “Boundless” (Featuring Photography by John Covington), an application that displays tiny thumbnail images (on which you can click, yes, you can).

There about fifty “erotic” (as labelled by Appadvice) images in this app, but here comes the clever bit… Before some of you rush to buy the application. While the thumbnails lead to think/see that the full picture is of a naked body, once you click to see it big, the parts that could make someone blush are automagically gone because slightly offscreen or via other smart mechanisms

But this could be the start of Applestore getting a bit more relaxed on their application process, hopefully, let’s see.

To who like me jumps on every update before even reading what others that tried before say, I feel your pain.

Well, this also comes from the confidence that Apple got us to feel when they come out with something. The concept that makes their strength is not only the “wow factor”, coolness of their products, it’s also the “it just works”. But, this time, I’ve the impression that the 3.1 update hasn’t been a huge success. This post is actually an update on a previous one. Unfortunately it’s not an update that brings good news. The issue is still there, and a lot of people are really unhappy. See the picture here below: Continue reading »

That’s straight from the Google Mobile Blog, and it’s very good news for iPhone owners who want Gmail push – as it’s an effective, and free, solution coming straight from Google themselves.

I personally use the exchange server from work for my emails, contacts and calendar owa syncing, but if I wasn’t, I would go for the Gmail sync offer. I tested it on a colleague’s phone. The new Gmail push seems to be working quite well, in my quick testing of it this morning.

This may be bad news for apps like PushGmail – which Thomas posted about earlier today – and other similar third party apps.  Unless you want some of their extra bells and whistles (choosing notification tones, popup alerts and such-like), it’s going to be hard to argue with a free and easy solution via Google Sync.

The only other big reason this may not work for some folks is that it requires that you setup Google Sync as an MS Exchange account on the iPhone, and some of you may have already maxed out on Exchange account setup on the iPhone with your corporate setup. Continue reading »
