iPhone AFP Share
1. Copies over to the iPhone quite easily
2. Using the command provided (/opt/iphone/afp/startserver.sh. &) the AFP server starts on the iPhone and stays running for some undetermined amount of time (one of the items that seems buggy to me)
3. Via the Mac, accessing afp://<ip address> brings up the usual apple share dialog (see screenshots on tuaw).
4. Once authenticated, you are in and ready to go…
The author talks about enabling Bonjour, which I haven’t done, yet.
The other item that I noticed was that after a couple hours, I wasn’t able to reconnect back to the iPhone via AFP. Multiple attempts crashed Finder in Leopard. Attempting to start the AFP server again on the iPhone produced a message indicating the service was already running or in use.
Only after rebooting the iPhone and restarting the service, was I able to get back in via AFP.
I’m sure we’ll see a ton more development on this in the near future. A GUI to manage the starting and stopping of the service would be a crucial next step.

HP Mini 110 – Still Waiting For Root Device
about 2 years ago - 1 comment
Upon booting verbosely, I saw the Still Waiting for Root Device message. After googling that message, it appeared that the error was common in the OSX86 world and was not usually easy to fix. Many different people having many different experiences with it. Some easily fixed, some not fixable.
To fix, I restarted the PC again and went into BIOS setup, changed the boot options to have the USB drive first in the list and the HDD second.

Yesterday, I purchased the Incase power slider for my iPhone 3G S. It boasts that it will double your iPhone battery life while protecting it with it’s case. Since battery life is important to me and I find my self constantly running out of battery (usually around 2pm each day), I was excited to get

I installed Ghetto Tweets a few months ago. There is a pretty good review about it, here… Overall it’s a fun little app to play around with. Minutes worth of fun. Some examples: Here is @BarackObama talking about Ted Kennedy. Here is the real update… Here is @LeviPBlauvelt talking about me. Here is the real

I’ve really been enjoying the new iPhone 3Gs, a lot. The voice control functionality is very nice and helps a lot when you want to start playing music or turn on shuffle mode, or make a call. Well, call almost anybody. There is one person voice control refuses to recognize. Who? Mom. Me: “Call Mom
Phantom iPhone SMS Notifications

UPDATE: Since I’ve posted this message, I have found several forum posts on the apple support forums indicating that the notifications are reminders of unread SMS messages. Must’ve missed that part of the release notes for 2.1 firmware. There doesn’t seem to be any way to turn it off as of the time of this
iPhone Durability

While driving, I tend to slide the iPhone under my leg to keep it secure during the car ride. If I leave it on the seat next to me, it slides around and could fall off the seat. If you put it in a cup holder, it can still rattle around. So, on Friday, I

iPhone Helps Save the Environment

One way I’m “going green” is I am no longer taking a paper receipt at the gas pump. Where does the iPhone come in, you might ask? Well, it works like this… I pump my gas and decline the paper receipt and simply take a picture of the amount I paid for gas. I then
