On July 25, 2008

The title says it all- the NetNewsWire iPhone app received a significant upgrade tonight. Does it make a difference? You bet!!!

Despite its limitations I liked version 1.0.0 well enough. And compared to some of the other RSS readers (like the one I reviewed yesterday) it was AMAZING!)

This update makes a good RSS reader a Really Really good RSS reader.

Multiple Copies Of Apps For the Same Household? Maybe Not

By

On

Here are WhatsOniPhone we work hard to bring our thoughts, impressions and reviews rather than merely repeated information from other posts. That noted, this was way too good not to pass on to everyone.

Here’s the situation-

I have an iPhone and an iPod Touch.

My wife currently has a Touch but will be replacing it with an iPhone as soon as they are back in stock and available.

She has her Mac and I have a desktop and a notebook.

I have already spend a boatload on applications for both my personal use and for the sake of reviews here on the site.

I have NO interest in having to purchase the same app if both of us are interested. So what, if any, options are there available to me? Do we have to buy multiple versions of the same apps?

Not neccessarily.

On Again, Off Again Aurora Feint Is… On Again

By

On

Free fantasy game Aurora Feint made the rounds in the blog-o-sphere earlier today when it was ripped from the iTunes App Store due to a potentially serious privacy/security flaw. It seems that in order to use the iPhone’s location feature to find others who are playing the gamedoing the application sent a player’s entire contact list to their servers over A TOTALLY UNSECURE data pipe. 

It is one of those silly little privacy gaps that could… ruin someone’s life. But hey, it is apparently a fun game and its free!

Well, it seems that Aurora Feint is…

Pandora Version 1.1- Sounds Even Better

By

On

We’ve been working on a review of Pandora’s iPhone application and before we could even get it posted they went and made it better.

Version 1.1 of the application offers a couple of nice improvements. 

Station Resume means that listeners who switch to a different application or take call are brought right back to the station they were on when they return to Pandora. This is key since Aple won’t allow 3rd party apps to run in the background.

The new version brings auto-complete to make searching for an artist or song that much faster and it allows users to register for Pandora right from their iPhone or iPod Touch.

All of these are great improvements but they are nothing compared to the one that stands out the most. Version 1.1 of Pandora means that

iTuned Out?

By

On July 24, 2008

I have been accused by some of my friends of being an Apple-fanboy. Well, you know what… they’re right. After getting rid of an HP-branded iPod that gave me nothing but trouble a few years ago I swore off owning another Apple product. The iPhone changed that and I now I wish I had wised up earlier.

Since making the jump to the iPhone last August I have become a huge fan of Apple’s products. I find them to be elegant, forward thinking and cutting edge. Most importantly, though, they work well for me.

So, yes, I am a fan of Apple’s amazing products. I love using my iMac. I love my MacBook Air and I like the power of my MacBook Pro even more. And my iPhone– well I like it enough that Dimitri, Ron and I started this site.

Yeah. I’m a fan.

BUT… That does not mean that I am not critical of Apple, their approach and some of the choices they have been making. In this post I want to break for a bit from the normal flow here on What’s On iPhone and talk about a few of my many (and increasing) frustrations.
