best iPhone ever....



a concept photoshop that has people drooling and hoping that this actually comes true.... all this is from Gizmodo

"Here's the new iPhone Pro, something that we don't expect at MacWorld 2009 at all. However, we do expect something like this to come at a later date. Why? Because it just makes sense.

This concept started as a Photoshop idea by Giz reader Mat Brady. He wants to get rid of his Nokia N95 but can't get himself to buy an iPhone for the same reason other people don't like the current iPhone. Lack of a physical keyboard, lack of a good camera, and not enough storage.

I've an iPhone 3G. I love it. In fact, now that I'm in Spain and I can't use the 3G—because AT&T will nail me for the data roaming at a buck per megabyte—I miss a lot of things, from Maps to Facebook. But even while I can't live without it, I can see those shortcomings. In fact, I've bitched about the camera and the storage quite a few times. Mat made his concept and called it iPhone Elite: an iPhone with 60GB of storage, true 16:9 aspect ratio, slide-out keyboard, one megapixel front camera for iChat, and a high quality camera, with good lenses, optical zoom, and video capability.

That's good, but we thought it could be a bit better. We fixed the keyboard to make it more rational and compact, losing some unneeded keys. With the space, we added what it's really needed to make the iPhone a true Nintendo DS competitor: A direction pad and two buttons. For the D-Pad, we didn't want to reinvent the wheel and just copied Nintendo's tried-and-proved design.

Is this doable now? Technologically, it is. We've seen designs by HTC that get close to this, although they don't have the software and the final polish that this class of Apple product may have. Would it be more expensive too produce than the current iPhone 3G? Of course. Would we want to pay extra for it? Definitely yes.

Wouldn't you?"

NEW TOYS IN MY LIFE

So a lot of new things have come in to my life recently...

well for starters my old macbook pro had to have so many things replaced on it that they finally replaced mine with a new one... and its not the old one its the one that just came out. i love the thing and there is no way i would go back to the old one over this one its practically flawless! the only things i have found annoying is that fact that the usb ports are to close together its rather tight when you use 2 at the same time and the other issues is well compared to my old one ... there is no other issue. this thing is so fast and runs so well its not even funny if your looking for a new computer this is everything you need and more.

the other things are/ were a black berry storm and a iphone. the black berry storm i could not stand the fucking thing! it was so slow and almost always was confused and or bogged down! it would lock up and the screen clicking was wearing out in the short time that i had it. my curve was light years ahead of the storm and productivity! however at the same time its still not the best.i took it back to verizon after only 10 day and because of the storm i just got so fed up with not having an iPhone that me and lindsey went out and got a family plan and got iphones... and i can say im 100% happy with it. the typing is way faster than the storm and tho the clicking was nice at times the iPhone is so much better at it predictable typing!!! this things worth every cent you will spend on it! also im even happy with is my service. the 3g network that AT&T has now is so much faster then the verizon one and i have no problems with service other then here in my house in va but i have never had service here with any company.

also i have got a copy of CS4 master collection and it is so nice. it has so much in it that i have not even got close to using it all. i have had it for about a month and used it to finish all of my final projects and its so nice! if you need it got get it!

A Cross the Universe



A Cross the Universe the new movie (lots of tour footage) its amazing. Gaspard AugĂ© and Xavier de Rosnay are two fun loving frenchmen and love to get them self's in to the most ridicules of situations. Not to mention there gun wheeling tour manager who ships him self a gun to the states.Thee movie at the same time is very powerful and just makes you feel like your at the concerts. The intensity level of the movie never stops between fights, concerts, and lighting people on fire! The live CD is way better than † with longer versions of several songs including my personal favorite Phantom Pt II.

Here is the track listing

Intro
Genesis
Phantom Part I
Phantom Part I.5
D.A.N.C.E.

Stress
We Are Your Friends (Reprise)
