iPhone 2.2 Update Makes NYC Life Easier

Filed under: Cellphones, Software

Living in New York, it’s quite frustrating when you just miss a train and are forced to wait for 25 minutes until the next one shows up. The latest iPhone update apparently can tell you when the next train departs when you use Google Maps. This is a really neat feature that I praise Google for doing. The real question is, will this feature hit the T-Mobile G1 anytime soon?

NavJacket: The GPS Winter Coat

Filed under: Design, Displays, Wearables

Here’s a back-to-school jacket worth getting excited about. The NavJacket from O’Neill is due out this winter and will feature more technology than you can shake a stick at. Designed for people who like to snowboard, ski or just hit the trails, the NavJacket features Gore-Tex material and integrated GPS that allows you to navigate a hillside. The left arm features 5 buttons and a HUD for displaying information and guiding you throughout the cold night.

There’s no set release date or official price for the jacket, but don’t expect O’Neill to let it go for cheap.
