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 message, hopefully in a future firmware release… thx for reading. /UPDATE

Ever since I upgraded to iPhone firmware 2.1, I have been receiving phantom SMS notifications. I still have the default tritone sound set for SMS messages and it happens several times a day. I’ll get the vibe/tritone notification, look at the iPhone and see nothing new.
One other person has reported the same thing to me. A google search resulted in numerous people seeing similar phantom SMS messages, however, wasn’t able to find any specific to the iPhone.
Odd.

Incase Power Slider – Fail

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
iPhone 3Gs Voice Control Issues

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
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

Erica Sadun posted about this over on tuaw.com. Thought I’d try it out for myself. Seems to work quite nicely, minus a couple minor things. 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

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
