Today Apple unveiled the latest iteration of the iPhone, the iPhone 3GS. The ‘S’ stands for speed. It will be available in North America on Friday, June 19th. This is a big deal for a number of reasons. I won’t get into all the new features of the device (and 3.0 firmware update), just a…
The iTunes training course I did a little while ago is finally out in stores! So if you or someone you know wants to know more about iTunes and using it with your iPod, iPhone and Apple TV, this might be for you (or them). It should now be available in London Drugs (I believe…
As some of you know, I recently bought a Kia Soul after the lease on my Toyota Matrix ended: and I thought I’d describe a few of the interesting bits of technology that Kia has included in this vehicle. I won’t get into the car side of things as there are plenty of reviews/comparisons of…
