iPhone 1.1.3 to bring Home customization, Locate Me, more

Well, all I can say is that it is about time that the good folks at Apple finally decided to start added some features and learn from the iPhone application hacker community that they have a wonderful platform on which to build new features and apps.  …and that they need to get off there asses and start developing.  I mean give me a break, if the iPhone Hackers can do all this development in there free time and for free, why cannot a big corporation with a stock price around $190 do at least as much if not more.

Ok, I will stop ranting, as i willbe looking forward to the 1.1.3 firmware update.  However, I will have to unhack my iPhone now to update it, so the good folks at Apple do not brick my phone.

1Password 40% Off

For anyone that uses the Internet now days, a password manager is an essential tool.  There are simply too many website with too many usernames and passwords to keep track of.  Now if you simply this by using the same username and password for all of them….well I wish you well.

Before I transitioned to a Mac I was using Keepass for my password management.  It is a great tool for Windows users.  Once I transitioned to my Mac, I found KeepassX, which is a Linux/Mac port of the same code.  Then I found 1Password.  I did not realize just how much I depended on this little app until a couple of months ago, when a new update to Firefox disabled it.  My browsing experience was a nightmare.

Check out the video of how it works on the link below.  That is one of the cool things the Mac folks do.  Unlike the Linux guys, who typically give no documentation, feature list or any clue what the application does or the Windows guys, who typically give you screenshots and a feature list; the Mac guys provide all that but typically a video of the application in action.

.Mac Services Down

.Mac Services such as my email are currently down. 

Not real happy about this Mr. Jobs.  Good thing I have Google as a back.  However the problem with this, that Google is free.  I paid for the .Mac Services.  If Apple is going to get into the Services market, you might wanna put some of those iPhone profits into the quality service.  Just a thought…
